Answer:

a. The number of students who can play all three instruments = 2 students

b. The number of students who can play only the saxophone is 0

c. The number of students who can play the saxophone and the clarinet but not the flute = 4 students

d. The number of students who can play only one of the clarinet, saxophone, or flute = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of students available = 29

The number of students that can play flute = 11 students

The number of students that can play clarinet = 15 students

The number of students that can play saxophone = 12 students

The number of students that can play flute and saxophone = 4 students

The number of students that can play flute and clarinet = 4 students

The number of students that can play clarinet and saxophone = 6 students

Let the number of students who could play flute = n(F) = 11

The number of students who could play clarinet = n(C) = 15

The number of students who could play saxophone = n(S) = 12

We have;

a. Total = n(F) + n(C) + n(S) - n(F∩C) - n(F∩S) - n(C∩S) + n(F∩C∩S) + n(non)

Therefore, we have;

29 = 11 + 15 + 12 - 4 - 4 - 6 + n(F∩C∩S) + 3

29 = 24 + n(F∩C∩S) + 3

n(F∩C∩S) = 29 - (24 + 3) = 2

The number of students who can play all = 2

b. The number of students who can play only the saxophone = n(S) - n(F∩S) - n(C∩S) - n(F∩C∩S)

The number of students who can play only the saxophone = 12 - 4 - 6 - 2 = 0

The number of students who can play only the saxophone = 0

c. The number of students who can play the saxophone and the clarinet but not the flute = n(C∩S) - n(F∩C∩S) = 6 - 2 = 4

The number of students who can play the saxophone and the clarinet but not the flute = 4 students

d. The number of students who can play only the saxophone = 0

The number of students who can play only the clarinet = n(C) - n(F∩C) - n(C∩S) - n(F∩C∩S) = 15 - 4 - 6 - 2 = 3

The number of students who can play only the clarinet = 3

The number of students who can play only the flute = n(F) - n(F∩C) - n(F∩S) - n(F∩C∩S) = 11 - 4 - 4 - 2 = 1

The number of students who can play only the flute = 1

Therefore, the number of students who can play only one of the clarinet, saxophone, or flute = 1 + 3 + 0 = 4

The number of students who can play only one of the clarinet, saxophone, or flute = 4.

Answer:

4√10

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Let's first simplify the radical.

We can do this by expanding the radical:

We need to pull out a perfect square factor to expand a radical and simplify it. In 45, we have 9 and 5 multiplied, and 9 is a perfect square.

Let's work with √45:

  • √45 can be written as √9 * √5 (using the rule √ab = √a * √b)
  • √9 simplifies to 3, so it is 3√5

Now we can simplify the operation in the parenthesis by combining like terms:

  • 3√5 + √5
  • √5 + √5 + √5 + √5
  • 4√5

Now using the same rule as above, we can multiply the values:

  • √2(4√5)
  • 4√10

Your solution is 4√10

Determinet the x-intercept for 3x+2y=14
DerKrebs [107]

The x-intercept is for y = 0.

Put y = 0 to the equation of a line 3x + 2y = 14

3x+2(0)=14\\\\3x=14\qqud\text{divide both sides by 3}\\\\\boxed{x=\dfrac{14}{3}\to\left(\dfrac{14}{3};\ 0\right)}
