In a competition, a school awarded medals in different categiories.40 medals in sport 25 medals in danceand 212 medals in music,
if the total of 55 students got medals and only 6 students got medals in the three categories ,how many students get medals in exactly two of these categories?
1 answer:
Answer:
210
Note: this answer might be incorrect because of the value of music (212). This doesn't make logical sense.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello,
This question can easily be solved through the use of a venn diagram.
Total number of students = 55
Number of medals in sport = 40 = A
Number of medals in dance = 25 = B
Number of medals in music = 212 = C
Number of students that got award in the three categories = (AnBnC) = 6
n(AuBuC) = 55
n(AnB) + n(BnC) + n(AnC) - 3n(AnBnC) =
n(AnB) + n(AnB) + n(AnC) -3×6 ......equation (i)
n(AuBuC) = n(A) + n(B) + n(C) - n(AnB) - n(BnC) - n(AnC) + n(AnBnC)
Therefore,
n(AnB) + n(BnC) + n(AnC) = n(A) + n(B) + n(C) + n(AnBnC) - n(AuBuC)
n(A) + n(B) + n(C) + n(AnBnC) - n(AuBuC) - 18
40 + 25 + 212 + 6 - 55 - 18 = 210
Note: this answer might be incorrect because of the value of C (music)

Answer:
The missing height is approximately 78.8011 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve for the height of the kite, you need to use a trigonometry function called sine. Sine - or sin when used to calculate - is most commonly used for right triangles, and the sine of a right triangle angle is equivalent to the side opposite (or the only side of the right triangle that does not help create that angle) of the angle divided by the hypotenuse of the right triangle. So you can now create the following function to solve the height: sin(52°) = where x represents the unknown height of the kite. From there, you can get that
52°
, which equals approximately 78.8011 feet. Since there isn't a specific decimal place to round to, I rounded the answer to four decimals. If your teacher asks you to round to a specific place value, use 78.8011 to get your simplified answer.
