Answer: There are 32 students who like brussels sprouts but dislike beans.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of students eat in the cafeteria = 120

Fraction dislike lime beans = \dfrac{2}{3}

Fraction who dislike lime beans and brussles sprouts both = \dfrac{2}{3}\times \dfrac{3}{5}

Fraction who dislikes lime beans but not brussles is given by

\dfrac{2}{3}(1-\dfrac{3}{5})\\\\=\dfrac{2}{3}\times \dfrac{2}{5}\\\\=\dfrac{4}{15}

So, Number of students who like brussels sprouts but dislike lima beans is given by

\dfrac{4}{15}\times 120\\\\=32

Hence, there are 32 students who like brussels sprouts but dislike beans.

What is m<4? I tryed to do the work but I just can't get it can someone help me plz
Mars2501 [29]
M<6 is 60
Since AC and BD are parallel, <6 and <4 are supplementary.
supplementary means = 180 degrees
Since m<6 is 60 degrees, subtract 60 from 180 to get <4
180 - 60 = 120

M<4 is 120

hope this helps
