Answer : P(\text{this group will speak both French and Spanish})=0.141666666

Explanation:

Since we have given that

n(U) = 120, where U denotes universal set ,

n(F) = 45, where F denotes who speak French,

n(S) = 42 , where S denotes who speak Spanish,

n(F∪S)' = 50

n(F∪S) = n(U)-n(F∪S) = 120-50 = 70

Now, we know the formula, i.e.

n(F∪s) = n(F)+n(S)-n(F∩S)

⇒  70    = 45+42-n(F∩S)

⇒ 70  =  87- n(F∩S)

⇒ 70-87 = -n(F∩S)

⇒ -17 = -n( F∩S)

⇒  17 = n(F∩S)

P(\text{this group will speak both French and Spanish})= \frac{17}{120}\\P(\text{this group will speak both French and Spanish})=0.141666666

For each function, identify the x-intercepts.<br> What is the x-intercept for each of those? Help
LiRa [457]

Answer:

1. (-4,0) and (-2,0)

2. (2,0)

3. (2,0)

4. (-6,0), (-2,0), (2,0), and (6,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-intercepts are the points in which the line crosses the x-axis. Another word for this are the zeroes, because y=0 would be right on the x-axis, and finding the zeroes would be finding the points that cross y=0. Notice how the points listen on the answer are right on the x-axis of each graph; they intercept the x-axis.

250% of what number is 90
katrin2010 [14]
The equation out of this is; what is 250/100 of a number x = 90?
=> Division of 250 by 100 gives 2.5.
=> Now multiply 2.5 by a number x resulting to 2.5x on the L.H.S.
=> make x the subject and come up with x = 90/2.5.
answer is 1/36.
