Combine like terms
20=2x+4

Subtract 4 from both sides
16=2x

Divide both sides by 2

In a large school, it was found that 71% of students are taking a math class, 77% of student are taking an English class, and 58
Anni [7]

Answer:

P (Math or English) = 0.90

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets study the meaning of or , and on probability

- The use of the word or means that you are calculating the probability

  that either event A or event B happened

- Both events do not have to happen

- The use of the word and, means that both event A and B have to

  happened

* The addition rules are:

# P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) ⇒ mutually exclusive (events cannot happen

  at the same time)

# P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B) ⇒ non-mutually exclusive (if they  

   have at least one outcome in common)

- The union is written as A ∪ B or “A or B”.  

- The Both is written as A ∩ B or “A and B”

* Lets solve the question

- The probability of taking Math class 71%

- The probability of taking English class 77%

- The probability of taking both classes is 58%

∵ P(Math) = 71% = 0.71

∵ P(English) = 77% = 0.77

∵ P(Math and English) = 58% = 0.58

- To find P(Math or English) use the rule of non-mutually exclusive

∵ P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B)

∴ P(Math or English) = P(Math) + P(English) - P(Math and English)

- Lets substitute the values of P(Math) , P(English) , P(Math and English)

 in the rule

∵ P(Math or English) = 0.71 + 0.77 - 0.58 ⇒ simplify

∴ P(Math or English) =  0.90

* P(Math or English) = 0.90

Williams uses his small motorboat to go 5 miles upstream to his favorite fishing spot. Against the current, the trip takes 1/3 h
laiz [17]

Answer: the boat can travel 20 mph in still water.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the speed of the boat in still water.

Let y represent the speed of the current.

Distance = speed × time

Williams uses his small motorboat to go 5 miles upstream to his favorite fishing spot. Against the current, the trip takes 1/3 hour. The total speed would be (x - y) mph. The distance covered upstream is

5 = 1/3(x - y)

Cross multiplying by 3, it becomes

15 = x - y - - - - - - - - - - - -1

With the current the trip takes 1/5 hour. The total speed would be

(x + y) mph. The distance covered downstream is

5 = 1/5(x + y)

Cross multiplying by 5, it becomes

25 = x + y - - - - - - - - - - - -2

Adding equation 1 to equation 2, it becomes

40 = 2x

x = 20/2 = 20

Substituting x = 20 into equation 1, it becomes

15 = 20 - y

y = 20 - 15

y = 5
