Probability that a student will play both is 7/30

Step-by-step explanation:

Total students = 30

No. of students who play basketball = 18

Probability that a student will play basketball = 18/30

= 3/5

No. of students who play baseball = 9

Probability that a student will play baseball = 9/30

= 3/10

No. of students who play neither sport = 10

Probability that a student will play neither sport = 10/30

= 1/3

To find :

Probability that a student will play both = p(student will play both)

No.of students who play sport = 30 - 10

= 20

Out of 20 students 18 play basketball and 9 play baseball.

So, some students play both the sports.

No. of students who play both sports = 18 + 9 - 20

= 7

p(student will play both) = 7/30

Probability that a student will play both is 7/30

2.) Using any tool (Desmos or by hand on scratch paper) graph the inequality. Select 3 points. One point should

The line 6x - 2y = 12 goes through -6 on the y-axis and 2 on the x-axis ie through (0, -6) and (2, 0)
The line will be solid and shaded above (towards the origin)

There are an infinite number of choices for the example points!
Here is my selection.
(0, 0) is in the solution set. 6 x 0 - 2 x 0 = 0 which is less than 12
(5, 0) is not in the solution set. 6 x 5 - 2 x 0 = 30 which is greater than 12
(2, 0) is on the line. 6 x 2 - 2 x 0 = 12
