Options:

A.) decrease because the same five numbers are not likely to occur again so soon.

B.) Increase because those five numbers must be lucky.

C.) be unaffected because every set of five numbers is equally likely on every attempt.

D.) be unknown because it depends on how many times those five numbers have won in the last several drawings.

Answer:

be unaffected because every set of five numbers is equally likely on every attempt.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number selection in the lottery is randomized with each set of number having equal chances of being selected. This means that each and every selection attempt is independent and the outcome of each attempt does not depend on any prior outcome or event. This means that if the numbers drawn from the most previous prior drawing are selected on the next attempt, the probability of winning on the next attempt Neither increases nor decreases. Hence , the probability of winning on the next attempt with this selection is unaffected.

                    x

Use tangent to find the x.

tan(2) = \frac{100}{x}

x = \frac{100}{tan(2)}

Use a calculator to evaluate.

x = \frac{100}{tan(2)} = 2863.6253

So, the boat is 2,863.63 feet from the shore.
