A soda manufacturer knows that sales of soda increase during the summer. To make sure that they get a large portion of the sales

, they decide to offer a contest throughout the spring. The contest is pretty simple: when you open your bottle of soda, if it says, “You win!” under the cap, you get another bottle of their soda for free. The chance of winning a free soda is 1 in 12. Lucky Lucy bought five sodas and won a free one with four of the caps. What’s the probability of that happening? Theoretically, how many sodas would you have to buy before having a greater than 50% chance of winning a free soda?

Answer:

a.) Probability = 1/5

b.) 10 soda

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is a game of chance.

The initial chance = 1/12

If Lucky Lucy bought five sodas and won a free one with four of the caps. The probability of that happening will be 1/5

Having a greater than 50% chance of winning a free soda means having probability greater than half. That is,

Probability > 1/2

You would have to buy (12 - 2) soda. Which is equal to 10.

What is the volume of a hemisphere with a diameter of 8.9 cm, rounded to the nearest tenth of a cubic centimeter?
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

The volume of the hemisphere is 1,475.73 cm³.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a hemisphere is half a sphere, to determine the volume of a hemisphere with a diameter of 8.9 cm, the following calculation must be performed, knowing that the volume of a sphere is equal to 4/3 πr³, and the radius is half the diameter:

8.9 x 2 = 17.8 / 2 = 8.9

(4/3 x 3.14 x 8.9³) / 2 = X

(1.333 x 3.14 x 704.969) / 2 = X

(4.18666 x 704.969) / 2 = X

2,951.47 / 2 = X

1,475.73 = X

Therefore, the volume of the hemisphere is 1,475.73 cm³.

What’s the correct answer??
zhuklara [117]
Cosine of an angle is the adjacent leg divided by the hypotenuse. 

So cos(60) = a / 12

I'm going to assume it's your last option because it's not in the picture.
