Starting at 1:00 p. M., The temperature changes -4 degrees Fahrenheit per hour. Write and solve an equation to find how many hours (x) it will take to reach -1 °F.

it will take 5 hours to reach -1 °F.

Step-by-step explanation:

The temperature changes -4 degrees Fahrenheit per hour. This is a linear rate. The rate at which the temperature is decreasing is in arithmetic progression. The formula for determining the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as

Tn = a + (n - 1)d

Where

a represents the first term of the sequence(the starting point)

d represents the common difference.

n = x = the number of terms in the sequence(number of hours)

From the information given,

a = 0(at 1 pm, number of hours is 0)

d = - 4 degrees (it is decreasing)

Tn = -1 °F.

We want to determine the number of hours, x when Tn = -1 °F

Therefore,

- 1 = 0 + (x - 1)- 4

- 1 = - x + 4

x = 4 + 1

x = 5 hours

amount of oatypop that contains the prize = 40%

amount   of oatypop which doesn't contain the prize = (100-40)=60%

probability that hannah will win a prize

    = s +f s +f f s+ff   f s+ff f f s+ infinity.where f= failure,s= success

=   or 60%

probability that hannah only has to buy 3 or less boxes before getting a prize= (s) and ( f s) and (ff s) and (f f f s)

        = = 87.04 %

-2 is the right
