Answer:

\frac{11}{20}

Step-by-step explanation:

Total male students = 200

Students who play football (F)= 58

Students who play basketball (B)= 40

Students who play both (F∩B)= 8

The number of students who play either sport is

(F\cup B)=F+B-(F\cap B)

(F\cup B)=58+40-8=90

The number of students who play neither sport is

200-(F\cup B)=200-90=110

The probability that a randomly selected male student plays neither sport is

Probability=\dfrac{\text{Number of students who play neither sport}}{\text{Total male students}}

Probability=\dfrac{110}{200}

Probability=\dfrac{11}{20}

Hence, the required probability is \frac{11}{20}.

An abstract sculpture in the form of a triangle has a base 21 meters and a height of 12 meters. Find the are of the triangle.
charle [14.2K]
The area of a triangle could be determined using the following formula
\boxed{a= \frac{1}{2} \times b \times h}

plug in the numbers
a =  \frac{1}{2} \times 21 \times 12
a =  \frac{1}{2} \times 252
a= \frac{252}{2}
a = 126

The area of the triangle is 126 square meters

Using the numbers 5, 8, and 24, create a problem using no more than four operations (adding, subtracting, multiplication, divisi
Alik [6]

The given three numbers are 5,8,24.

We have to use four operations (Adding, Subtracting,multiplication, division, square, square root, cube, cube root) out of these operation to make the result an irrational number.

1. \sqrt{\frac{24}{8}} + 5=\sqrt{3}+5,\\\\2. \sqrt{\frac{24}{8}} - 5=\sqrt{3} -5 \\\\ 3.\sqrt{\frac{24 \times 5}{8}}=\sqrt{15} \\\\ 4. (5 \times 8 \times 24)^\frac{1}{3}

There are many more examples that you can write.

Keep in mind

1. Sum of Rational and irrational is always irrational.

2. Difference of rational and irrational is always irrational.

As none of the 5,8,24 is a perfect square , nor addition of any two results in a perfect square, so square root of their addition or subtraction  or multiplication results in an  irrational number.

Similarly ,apart from 8, none of 5,24 is a perfect cube.So if you add or subtract any number from 8 and take their cube root  or square root ,results in an irrational number.

Dvinal [7]

Answer:  x⁴y²⁰

Step-by-step explanation: Distribute the exponent ⁴ over the parentheses

(x y⁴)⁴ becomes x⁴y¹⁶  (multiply exponents)

then take the 4th root of y¹⁶  (divide the exponent of the radicand by the index)  ⁴√y¹⁶  becomes y⁴

Then multiply the factors. Add exponents

x⁴y¹⁶ * y⁴  becomes x⁴y²⁰

The length of a rctangle is to more than the
hram777 [196]

Answer:

  19 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The width is 2 less than the length, so the perimeter is ...

  P = 2(L +W)

  72 = 2(L +(L -2))

  76 = 4L . . . . . . . . add 4

  19 = L

The length of the rectangle is 19 meters.
