This can be solved using formula for Venn Diagrams:

Total = n(A)+ n(B) - n(both A and B) + n(neither A nor B)

Where, the n in front indicates number of items <u><em>[ n(A) is number of elements in set A ]</em></u>

We can take:

  • set A as students taking Ethics
  • set B as students taking Metaphysics

Given:

Tota = 15,000

n(A) = 2200

n(both A and B) = 1700

n(neither A nor B) = 9500

Substituting these into our formula, we get:

15,000=2200+n(B)-1700+9500\\15,000=n(B)+10,000\\n(B)=15,000-10,000\\n(B)=5000

Hence, 5000 students are taking metaphysics this term.

<u><em>*** If we want to know students taking </em></u><u><em>metaphysics ONLY</em></u><u><em>, we can subtract n(both A and B) from 5000. So we have 5000-1700=3300 ***</em></u>


ANSWER:

Total students taking Metaphysics = 5000

Students taking Metaphysics only = 3300

The expression sin 57° is equal to
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

cos(33^{\circ})

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

sin(57^{\circ})

Required

Determine an equivalent expression

In trigonometry:

sin(\theta)= cos(90^{\circ} - \theta)

In sin(57^{\circ})

\theta=57^{\circ}

Substitute 57^{\circ} for \theta

in sin(\theta)= cos(90^{\circ} - \theta)

sin(57^{\circ})= cos(90^{\circ} - 57^{\circ})

sin(57^{\circ})= cos(33^{\circ})

Hence, the equivalent expression is: cos(33^{\circ})
