a. 15 students are members of both clubs

b. 50 students only are members of the mathematics club

c. 25 students only are members of the physics club

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

  • There are 100 students
  • 65 are members of a mathematics club
  • 40 are members of a physics club
  • 10 are members of neither club

We need to find how many students are members of

a. both clubs?

b. only mathematics club

c. only physics club

∵ The total number of students = 100

∵ 10 are members of neither club

- Subtract 10 from 100 to find the members of the mathematics

  club or the physics club

∵ 100 - 10 = 90

∴ There are 90 members of the mathematics club or physics club

∴ n(mathematics or physics) = 90

∵ 65 students are members of a mathematics club

∵ n(mathematics) = 65

∵ 40 students are members of a physics club

∴ n(physics) = 40

∵ n(mathematics or physics) = n(mathematics) + n(physics) - n(both)

∴ 90 = 65 + 40 - n(both)

∴ 90 = 105 - n(both)

- Add n(both) to each side

∴ n(both) + 90 = 105

- Subtract 90 from each side

∴ n(both) = 15

∴ 15 students are members of both clubs

a. 15 students are members of both clubs

∵ 65 students are members of the mathematics club

∵ 15 of them are members of the physics club

∴ n(mathematics only) = 65 - 15 = 50

∴ 50 students only are members of the mathematics club

b. 50 students only are members of the mathematics club

∵ 40 students are members of the physics club

∵ 15 of them are members of the mathematics club

∴ n(physics only) = 40 - 15 = 25

∴ 25 students only are members of the physics club

c. 25 students only are members of the physics club

Answer:

105 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure is composed of a rectangle and a triangle

area of rectangle = 15 × 6 = 90 cm²

area of triangle = \frac{1}{2} bh ( b is the base and h the height )

Here b = 15 - 9 = 6 and h = 11 - 6 = 5 , thus

area of triangle = \frac{1}{2} × 6 × 5 = 3 × 5 = 15 cm²

Total area = 90 + 15 = 105 cm²

Solve the inequality for t.<br><br> 11 ≤ t + 4<br><br> Simplify your answer as much as possible.
Softa [21]

Answer:

t≥7

Step-by-step explanation:

11≤t+4

4 moves to the other side hence its sign changes

11-4≤t

7≤t

they change sides

t≥7

the sign was facing t so this does not change
