Hal has 20 pieces of candy in a bag: 12 mint sticks, 5 jelly treats, and 3 fruit tart chews. if he eats one piece every 8 minutes, what is the probability his first two pieces will both be mint sticks?

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Number of pieces of candy in the bag =20

Number of pieces of mint sticks =12

If he eats one piece every 8 minutes, then the number of ways that he eats mint sticks =

The total number of ways that he eats any two pieces of candies=

Now, the probability his first two pieces will both be mint sticks :-

Hence, the probability his first two pieces will both be mint sticks =  

answer: the angel abc is 30°,and the abc is a triangle where the angel bac is 90°

so ac is the half of 24=12ft,and from the pythagorean theorem we find ba

ba=√bc^2-ac^2=√576-144=√432=12√3ft

so bac is 12+12√3=12(1+√3)ft

the equation of the parallel line would be y = 2x + 9

step-by-step explanation:

to start we need to find the slope of the original line. we can do that by looking at the coefficient of x, which is 2

since the slope of the original line is 2 and parallel lines have the same slope, we know the new line will also have 2 slope. now we can use that along with the point given in point-slope form to get the find equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 5 = 2(x + 2)

y - 5 = 2x + 4

y = 2x + 9
