Answer:

2S+178\ge 2,000,

[911,\infty).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let S be the number of cans that Shane had collected.

Abha had collected 178 more cans than Shane did, then Abha had collected S+178 cans.

Shane and Abha earned a team badge that required their team to collect no less than 2000 cans for recycling, this means that

S+S+178\ge 2,000,\\ \\2S+178\ge 2,000.

Solve this inequality:

1. Divide it by 2:

S+89\ge 1,000.

2. Now

S\ge 1,000-89,\\ \\S\ge 911.

The solution set is [911,\infty).

1.In a class of 45 pupils ,21play chess and 23 play cards and 5play both games
Mumz [18]

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

ii.

21 - 5 = 16 play only chess.

iii.

23 - 5 = 18 play only cards

5 play both.

that is 16+18+5 = 39 that play at least one of these games.

i.

so, 45 - 39 = 6 don't play any of these games.

(b)

we have 16+18 = 34 pupils out of 45 that play exactly one game.

so the probabilty to pick one of them is as usual

desired cases / total cases = 34/45 =

= 0.755555555... ≈ 0.76
