Describe how you would use a yardstick to measure a length of a rug

1 answer:

6 0

If you didn't know the precise measurements, you could lay the stick on the rug and measure how many of those yardsticks fit onto that rug. Then you could take that yardstick to a store and find a new one by applying the same type of measuring and you would find things that are the same size. You would use the stick for reference.

$68 - 59.9 = $8.1
$8.1/$68 = 0.11911764705
0.11911764705 x100 = 11.911764705

I need answer Immediately pls!!!!!!

Illusion [34]

Given:

Total number of students = 27

Students who play basketball = 7

Student who play baseball = 18

Students who play neither sports = 7

To find:

The probability the student chosen at randomly from the class plays both basketball and base ball.

Solution:

Let the following events,

A : Student plays basketball

B : Student plays baseball

U : Union set or all students.

Then according to given information,

$n(U)=27$

$n(A)=7$

$n(B)=18$

$n(A'\cap B')=7$

We know that,

$n(A\cup B)=n(U)-n(A'\cap B')$

$n(A\cup B)=27-7$

$n(A\cup B)=20$

Now,

$n(A\cup B)=n(A)+n(B)-n(A\cap B)$

$20=7+18-n(A\cap B)$

$n(A\cap B)=7+18-20$

$n(A\cap B)=25-20$

$n(A\cap B)=5$

It means, the number of students who play both sports is 5.

The probability the student chosen at randomly from the class plays both basketball and base ball is

$\text{Probability}=\dfrac{\text{Number of students who play both sports}}{\text{Total number of students}}$

$\text{Probability}=\dfrac{5}{27}$

Therefore, the required probability is $\dfrac{5}{27}$ .
