C. a different class is made up of 60% women and has 24 women in it. what is the total number of students in the class?

1 answer:

7 0

The answer is: " 40 students " .
______________________________________________________
Explanation:
______________________________________________________

60% of x = 24 . Find "x" . in which "x" = total number of students;

60 % = 60/100 = 6/10 = 3/5.

(3/5) x = 24 ;

Multiply EACH SIDE of the equation by "5" ; to get rid of the fraction:

5* (3/5)x = 24*5 ;

3x = 120 ;

Divide each side of the equation by "3" ;
to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "x" ;

3x / 3 = 120 / 3 ;

x = 40 .

Answer:

C ∪ D = {2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 10, 11}

Step-by-step explanation:

A={x | x is an even integer}

B={x | x is an odd integer},

C={2, 3, 4, 5},

D={8, 9, 10, 11}.

A union of two or more sets is the collection of the members of the sets in a set without repeating any element.

Given sets C and D above, the union of the two sets is the set:

C ∪ D = {2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 10, 11}

Note: The Intersection is the collection of sets that are common to C and D. in this case no element is common, therefore the intersection is a Null Set.
