To start off with, the probability to draw the short straw is 1/9 and each time someone picks the long straw the denominator (the 9) decreases by one which means that the odds of someone picking it get higher.

I will mark you brainiest if you can answer this
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

12^4 or 20736

Step by Step Instructions:

really all you have to do is subtract the exponents. 12^7-12^3=12^4, if you want to expand the numbers you can do it that way too. 12^7=35831808, 12^3=1728, 35831808/1728=20736 (which is the same as 12^4)

If a secretary typed 10,800 words in 2 hours and 30 minutes, how many words per minute did she type? ( Hint: Change hours to min
melamori03 [73]
<h3>Answer:  72 words per minute</h3>

Work Shown:

1 hour = 60 min

2 hours = 120 min (multiplied both sides by 2)

2 hours + 30 min = 120 min + 30 min = 150 min

speed = (number of words typed)/(time taken)

speed = (10800 words)/(150 min)

speed = (10800/150) words per minute

speed = 72 words per minute

You plan to take $450 u.s. on a trip to south africa. how many rands is this if one u.s. dollar equals 3.70 rands?
Mumz [18]
$1 = 3.70 rand

$450 is the same as 450 * $1, so multiply both sides of the conversion equation above by 450.

450 * $1 = 450 * 3.70 rand

$450 = 1665 rand
