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

what is the maximum volume of water a hamster bath can hold with a depth of 1 2/3, a length of 2 1/3 inches, and a width of 2 in
8_murik_8 [283]
The volume is 70/9 or 7 7/9.
=========================================
\frac{5}{3}  \times  \frac{7}{3}  \times  \frac{2}{1}  =  \frac{70}{9}
\frac{70}{9}  = 7 \frac{7}{9}

Find n. Perimeter = 86 in.
FromTheMoon [43]
Let the length of rectangle be L and the width of rectangle be W.
Since length exceeds the width by 25 inches, length will be
L = W + 25

Now the perimeter, P, is given by
P = 2(L + W)
Substituting L = W + 25 in the above equation,
P = 2(W + 25 + W)
P = 2(2W + 25)
P = 4W + 50
But P = 86 inches
P = 4W + 50 = 86
4W = 86 - 50 = 36
W = 36/4 = 9

Hence, width W = 9 inches.
Length L = W + 25 = 9 + 25 = 34 inches.
