Answer:

C. 10 000

Step-by-step explanation:

If we called:

x = children who have been vacinated against rubella only

2x = children who have been vaccinated against mumps

y = children who have been vaccinated agains both

Children who have been vaccinated against mumps only = x - y

And we know that y = 2*(x-y)

=> 2y = 3x

y = 5000

There fore x = 7500

The number of children who have been vaccinated against rubella

= 2x - y = 2*7500 - 5000 = 15 000 - 5000 = 10 000

Allison wants to calculate the speed of a sound wave.<br> Which formula should she use?
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

speed = distance/time

Step-by-step explanation:

The faster a sound wave travels, the more distance it will cover in the same period of time. If a sound wave were observed to travel a distance of 700 meters in 2 seconds, then the speed of the wave would be 350 m/s.
