Answer: 49 students

Step-by-step explanation:

2 /7 of students in a school wore shorts today. The number of students to be selected in order to get 14 students who will wear shorts to school will be:

Let the number of students that will be sampled be y. This will be:

2/7 of y = 14

2/7 × y = 14

2y/7 = 14

Cross Multiply

2y = 7 × 14

2y = 98

y = 98/2

y = 49

49 students will be selected randomly.

Please help me with number ten and twelve
jasenka [17]

Answer: 93,\ 34^{\circ}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

For figure (i) both triangles are congruent

\therefore 8x-27=4x+33\\\Rightarrow 8x-4x=33+27\\\Rightarrow 4x=60\\\Rightarrow x=15

\Rightarrow PQ=8x-27\\\Rightarrow PQ=93

For figure (ii)

Two triangles WXZ and WZY are congruent

\therefore 9x-28=5x-8\\\Rightarrow 4x=20\\\Rightarrow x=5^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow \angle YWX=2(9x-28)\\\Rightarrow \angle YWX=2(17)\\\Rightarrow \angle YWX=34^{\circ}

Give an example of a function f : N → N that is surjective but not injective. You must explain why your example is surjective an
Helen [10]

Answer:

Consider f: N → N defined by f(0)=0 and f(n)=n-1 for all n>0.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we will prove that f is surjective. Let y∈N be any natural number. Define x as the number x=y+1. Then x∈N, and f(x)=x-1=(y+1)-1=y.  We conclude that f is surjective.

However, f is not injective. Take x1=0 and x2=1. Then x1≠x2 but f(x1)=0 and f(x2)=x2-1=1-1=0. We have shown that there are two natural numbers x1,x2 such that x1≠x2 but f(x1)=f(x2), that is, f is not injective.

Note:

If 0∉N in your definition of natural numbers, the same reasoning works with the function f: N → N defined by f(1)=1 and f(n)=n-1 for all n>1. The only difference is that you consider x1=1, x2=2 for the injectivity.
