First, count the total number of letters in <span>BURGER AND STARBIRD.
There are 17 letters.
Now count each type of letter you are interested in and divide by 17.
a) There are four R's, so the probability of pulling out an R is 4/17.
b) </span><span>There are two B's, so the probability of pulling out an B is 2/17.
c) Letters A through M appear in the first half of the alphabet.
These letters are from the first half of the alphabet:
</span><span>BGEADABID
There are 9 of them.
</span>The probability of pulling out a letter that appears in the first half of the alphabet is 9/17.
d) <span>These letters are vowels
</span><span>UEAAI
There are five vowels.
</span><span>The probability of pulling out a vowel is 5/17.</span>
We can set this problem up as an algebraic equation, which we can then solve to find our answer.
We start at -3. So we can start our equation with that:

However, this doesn't represent any change in temperature, just that we start at -3. To show change, we will use the variable
, where
stands for the number of hours. Each hour accounts for a change of -2.5 in degrees, meaning that we must multiply our
by -2.5. We can now add this term into our equation:

We are trying to find when we will reach -18 degrees, so we will set our entire equation equal to -18 and solve:



It will take us 6 hours, or choice A.
It’s 12h-14 because -6 and -8 combine to be -14 and 5h and 7h equal 12h
