Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

No of People who can speak English is n(E)=68

No of People who can speak French is n(F)=45

No of People who can speak Spanish is n(S)=42

No of People who can speak both English and French n\left ( E\cap F\right )=27

No of People who can speak both English and Spanish n\left ( E\cap S\right )=25

No of People who can speak both French and Spanish n\left ( F\cap S\right )=16

No of people who can speak all languages is n\left ( E\cap F\cap S\right )=9

no of People who can Speak at least one Language is

n\left ( E\cup F\cup S\right )=n\left ( E\right )+n\left ( F\right )+n\left ( S\right )-n\left ( E\cap F\right )-n\left ( E\cap S\right )-n\left ( F\cap S\right )+n\left ( E\cap F\cap S\right )

n\left ( E\cup F\cup S\right )=68+45+42-27-25-16+9=96

Probability that Randomly selected can speak at least 1 of these languages

P=\frac{96}{100}=0.96

I NEED FAST HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

The student is expected to spend <em>15.4 hours </em>doing homework

Step-by-step explanation:

The scattered plot shows there is a close correlation between the variables. A line of best fit will go through the 'center' of the points. Since we are not required to find an exact line, we'll draw it in red color as shown below

To know the equation of that line, we must take two clear points of it from the graph. We'll pick (28,4) and (4,25)

The equation of a line, given two points (a,b) and (c,d) is

\displaystyle y-b=\frac{d-b}{c-a}(x-a)

Using the selected points

\displaystyle y-4=\frac{25-4}{4-28}(x-28)

Simplifying and computing results, the equation is

\displaystyle y=-\frac{7}{8}x+\frac{57}{2}

Using that equation, we can predict how many hours the students will spend doing homework if they spend 15 hours watching TV

\displaystyle y=-\frac{7}{8}(15)+\frac{57}{2}=15.4 hours

So the student is expected to spend 15.4 hours doing homework

The graph of a quadratic function intercepts the x-axis in the two places and the y-axis in one place.
wolverine [178]
Correct Answer:
Option 3: <span>The quadratic function has two distinct real zeros.

The function is quadratic, therefore it can have only 2 zeros. The knowledge of x-intercepts is needed to determine the zeros, y-intercepts has nothing to do with the zeros of a function. The given function has 2 unique x-intercepts, so according to the fundamental theorem of algebra, this function has 2 distinct real roots as number of distinct real roots are equal to the number of x-intercepts. Therefore, option 3 is the correct answer. </span>
