Answer:

5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

So, if we add 7 + 12, then it seems that 19 of the 24 students play one of the two sports. But there are 4 students that play both, so we must account for that.

To get the actual number of students that play sports, we must subtract 4 from 19.

19 - 4 = 15

So now we know that 15 out of the 24 students play sports.

We can divide 15 and 24 by 3 to find the simplified fraction.

15 / 3 = 5       24 / 3 = 8

So 5 out of every 8 students plays one of these sports, which means that the probability of picking one of these students is 5/8!

How many miles from ft Lauderdale to Haiti
Sonbull [250]

Ft. Lauderdale is a city that stretches several miles, and Haiti
is a whole country, that's many miles wide and many miles high. 

In order to nail down a reliable answer, you'd really need to specify
one point in Ft. Lauderdale and one point in Haiti.

If you start at the northwest end of Runway-13 at Ft. Lauderdale
Executive Airport, and take the shortest possible route to the east
end of Runway-28 at the Aeroport International de Port au Prince
at Haiti's capital city, you'd have to travel 727.57 miles.

But if you start in Ft. Lauderdale at the intersection of Griffin Rd
and Ravenswood Rd, and take the shortest possible route to the
Dispensaire de Bord-de-Mer hospital on Haiti's north coast, you'd
only have to travel 613.63 miles.

You really need to say WHERE in Ft. Lauderdale and WHERE in Haiti.

Studentka2010 [4]

(x_{m},y_{m} )  = (\frac{X_{A} +X_{B} }{2}  ,\frac{Y_{A} + Y_{B} }{2})

(x_{m},y_{m} )  = (\frac{5-1}{2}  ,\frac{8-4 }{2})

(x_{m},y_{m} )  = (\frac{4}{2}  ,\frac{4 }{2})

(x_{m},y_{m} ) = (2, 2)
