1. There are 78 sophomores at a school. Each is required to take at least one year of either chemistry or physics, but they may

take both. 15 are enrolled in both chemistry and phys- ics, and 47 are enrolled only in chemistry. How many students are enrolled only in physics?

We are given that there are a total of 78 students. If we set the following variables:

\begin{gathered} C=\text{students only in chemestry} \\ P=\text{students only in physics} \\ PC=\text{students in physics and chemistry} \end{gathered}

Then, the sum of all of these must be 78, that is:

C+P+PC=78

Since there are 15 in chemistry and physics and 47 in chemistry, we may replace that into the equation and we get:

47+P+15=78

Simplifying:

62+P=78

Now we solve for P by subtracting 62 on both sides:

\begin{gathered} 62-62+P=78-62 \\ P=16 \end{gathered}

Therefore, there are 16 students in physics

What is -4 the square root of 12 + the square root of 75 in simplist radical form?
Fofino [41]

Answer:

<u>The simplest radical form of this mathematical expression is - 3√3</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's write in a mathematical expression the information given:

-4 the square root of 12 + the square root of 75

-4 (√12) + √75

-4 (√4 * 3) + (√25 * 3)  (12 = 4 * 3 and 75 = 25 * 3)

-4 (2 √3) + 5 √3

-8 √3 + 5√3

- 3 √3

The result is- 3 square root of 3.

<u>The simplest radical form of this mathematical expression is - 3√3</u>

<u>Geometry</u>

  • Surface Area of a Sphere: SA = 4πr²
  • Diameter: d = 2r

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

SA = 23 in²

<u>Step 2: Find </u><em><u>r</u></em>

  1. Substitute [SAS]:                    23 in² = 4πr²
  2. Isolate <em>r </em>term:                         23 in²/(4π) = r²
  3. Isolate <em>r</em>:                                  √[23 in²/(4π)] = r
  4. Rewrite:                                   r = √[23 in²/(4π)]
  5. Evaluate:                                 r = 1.35288 in

<u>Step 3: Find </u><em><u>d</u></em>

  1. Substitute [D]:                    d = 2(1.35288 in)
  2. Multiply:                              d = 2.70576 in
  3. Round:                                d ≈ 3 in
