60 are in choir and band, which leaves 50 (110 - 60) in choir and not band, and 180 (240 - 60) in band and not choir, and the remaining 220 (450 - 50 - 180) students don't belong to either. So

P(\text{choir OR band})=P(\text{choir})+P(\text{band})-P(\text{choir AND band})

=\dfrac{50}{450}+\dfrac{180}{450}-\dfrac{60}{450}=\dfrac{170}{450}\approx0.38

If instead "110 of them are in choir" means 110 students are in choir and NOT in band, and "240 of them are in bad" means 240 students are in band and NOT choir, then

P(\text{choir OR band})=\dfrac{110}{450}+\dfrac{240}{450}-\dfrac{60}{450}=0.64

water is piped from a dam to a town 24 km away using pipes each 8m long. How many pipes will be needed?
sineoko [7]
A = cross sectional area of the pipe. When the pressure is expressed in terms of the equivalent height of a column of that fluid, as is common with water, the friction loss is expressed as S, the "head loss" per length of pipe, a dimensionless quantity also known as the hydraulic slope.
