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.

Can someone please help a guy out? and ASAP. i'm really tired and i've been trying to get this done for months but i cannot unde

Answer:

1) On the x-axis, the arm span is plotted. On the y-axis, the height is plotted. It is chosen to be that way because the numbers on that have been assigned on the x-axis increase and decrease in a small amount, while the numbers on the y-axis increase and decrease in a huge amount.

2) (lolz i cant show u my work but i will try my best with explanations even tho ian allat.) So, Using the slope formula, I got a the equation y=x+15. The equation was determined with the formula m=y2-y1/x2-x1. The points that were used included (37,40) and (47,50). After finding the slope, I did the best guess for the y-intercept, which is known as b in y=mx+b.

3) The slope of the line represents the time it takes for the arm span and the height. The y-intercept represents the height that the arm span starts developing or gets bigger.

4) It fits perfectly

5) The data is pretty inconsistent.

6)  About 68-69 inches tall

7)About 71-72 inches wide

yeo u had my brain work after this

Hannah has another candle that is 14 cm tall. How fast must it burn in order to also be 6 cm tall after 4 hours? Explain your th
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

The candle must burn at 2cm per hour in order to be 6cm tall after 4 hours. I know this because the candle has to burn 8cm in 4 hours and that amounts to 2cm per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets solve!

We have to find out how much of the candle needs to be burned!

14cm - 6cm = 8cm

The candle must burn 8cm in 4 hours!

Lets find out how much the candle burns in 1 hour.

\frac{8cm}{4hours}= 2cm per hour

The candle must burn at 2cm per hour in order to be 6cm tall after 4 hours. I know this because the candle has to burn 8cm in 4 hours and that amounts to 2cm per hour.

Woohoo, We did it! <u>Would you like to mark my answer as brainliest?</u> I would love that!

City A is 10 miles from city B and 5 miles from city C. Cities A, B, and C form a right triangle at A. A road connects cities B
laila [671]

Answer:

11.18 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides of a right triangle a, b, c are related by the equation

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

where c is the longest side of the triangle

Hence given that A connects B and C directly and forms a right angle at A

5^2 + 10^2 = c^2

Where c is the length of the road

25 + 100 = c^2

125 = c^2

c = 125^1/2

= 11.18 miles
