THE amusement park won't allow kids to ride roller-coasters until they are a minimum of 48 inches tall. Michael is now 42 inches tall, and grows about 1/2 inch every month. How many months will it be until Michael can read a roller coaster? Please show me the individual steps?

It will one year (or 12 months) before Michael is able to ride the roller coaster.

Step-by-step explanation: Because he grows a half inch every month, this means that It takes him two months to grow one full inch. Because he has to grow six inches, you just multiply 2 by 6 to get 12 months or one year.

48-42=6, which is how much Michael needs to grow.

1/2x=6, where x is the number of months

x = 12 months.

1 year = 12 months so the answer is one year.

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 %  

step-by-step explanation:

both equations and proportions are better.
