Probability of a student playing both basketball and baseball is 7/28

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

It is given the class has 28 students out of which 11 play basketball and 13 play baseball. It is also given that 11 students play neither sport.

Total number of students = 28

Students playing neither sport = 11

Students playing at least one sport = 28 - 11 = 17

Step 2:

Let N(Basketball) denote the number of students playing  basketball and N(Baseball) denote the number of people playing  baseball.

Then N(Basketball U Baseball) denotes the total number of students playing basketball and baseball and N(Basketball ∩ Baseball) denotes playing both basketball and baseball.

Since the number of students playing at least one sport is 17, N (Basketball U Baseball) = 17.

N (Basketball U Baseball) = N(Basketball) + N(Baseball) - N(Basketball ∩ Baseball)

N(Basketball ∩ Baseball) = N(Basketball) + N(Baseball) - N (Basketball U Baseball)

N(Basketball ∩ Baseball) = 11 + 13 - 17 = 7

Step 3:

Number of students playing both basketball and baseball = 7

Total number of students = 28

Probability of a student playing both basketball and baseball is 7/28

Step 4:

Answer:

Probability of a student playing both basketball and baseball is 7/28

The area of a rectangle is 10r (squared) − 11r − 6. The width is 2r − 3. What is the length?
sladkih [1.3K]
<span>10r^2 − 11r − 6 = (2r - 3)(5r +2)
so
A = </span>(2r - 3)(5r +2)<span>
as you know A =  L * W
if width = </span>(2r - 3) then length = (5r +2)

answer
length = (5r +2)

Write a equation for the line parallel to
Llana [10]
Paralell has same slope
y=mx+b
m=slope
b=yint

same slope so other equation is
y=4x+b

input given point
(2,0)
x=2
y=0
0=4(2)+b
0=8+b
minus 8 both sides
-8=b

the equation is y=4x-8

Answer:

x° = 37°

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise some facts of a circle

- The secant is a line intersect the circle in two points

- If two secants intersect each other in a point outside the circle,

 then the measure of the angle between them is half the difference

 of the measures of their intercepted arcs

* Now lets solve the problem

- There is a circle

- Two secants of this circle intersect each other in a point outside

  the circle

∴ The measure of the angle between them = 1/2 the difference of the

  measures of their intercepted arcs

∵ The measure of the angle between them is x°

∵ The measures of their intercepted arcs are 26° and 100°

- Use the rule above to find x

∴ x° = 1/2 [ measure of the large arc - measure of small arc]

∵ The measure of the large arc is 100°

∵ The measure of the small arc is 26°

∴ x° = 1/2 [100 - 26] = 1/2 [74] = 37°

∴ x° = 37°
