Answer:

a = 4 b = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

8a + 12b = 92......eqn 1

6a - 4b = 4......eqn 2

multiply eqn 2 by 3

18a - 12b = 12.....eqn 2

add eqn 1 and 2 to eliminate b

26a = 104

a = 4

put a = 4 into eqn 2

18(4) - 12b = 12

72 - 12b = 12

72 - 12 = 12b

60 = 12b

5 = b

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a total of 25 students. 3 don't study art or biology. 10 study only biology. 6 study both art and biology. This means the remaining students only study art.

1. Calculate the number of students taking art

only art: 25 - 3 - 6 - 10 = 6

number of students taking art and biology: 6

total number of students taking art: 12

2. Calculate the probability

Out of the 12 total students taking art, 6 are in art and biology.

6/12 = 1/2
