Part (i)

We have 60 students total, and 5 didn't like any of the two subjects, so that must mean 60-5 = 55 students liked at least one subject.

<h3>Answer: 55</h3>

=========================================================

Part (ii)

We have 15 who like math only, 20 who like science only, and 55 who like either (or both). Let x be the number of people who like both classes.

We can then say

15+20+x = 55

x+35 = 55

x = 55-35

x = 20

This means 20 people liked both subjects

<h3>Answer: 20</h3>

=========================================================

Part (iii)

There are 15 people who like math only, and 20 who like both. Therefore, there are 15+20 = 35 people who like math (and some of these people also like science)

<h3>Answer: 35</h3>

=========================================================

Part (iv)

We'll follow the same idea as the previous part. There are 20 people who like science only and 20 who like both subjects. That yields 40 people total who like science (and some of these people also like math).

<h3>Answer: 40</h3>

=========================================================

Part (v)

We'll draw a rectangle to represent the entire group of 60 students. This is considered the universal set. Inside the rectangle will be two overlapping circles to represent math (M) and science (S).

We'll have 15 go in circle M, but outside circle S to represent the 15 people who like math only. Then we have 20 go in circle S but outside circle M to show the 20 people who like science only. We have another copy of 20 go in the overlapped region between the circles. This is the 20 people who like both classes. And finally, we have 5 go outside both circles, but inside the rectangle. These are the 5 people who don't like either subject.

Note how all of the values in the diagram add up to 60

15+20+20+5 = 60

This helps confirm we have the correct values.

An automobile traveling at the rate of 30 ft/sec is approaching an intersection. When the automobile is 120 feet from the inters
Trava [24]

Answer:

Distance between automobile and the truck is 100 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of the automobile towards the intersection = 30 ft per sec

Speed of the truck that crosses the intersection = 40 ft per sec.

Automobile is 120 feet apart when the truck passes through the intersection.

After 2 seconds distance traveled by the automobile = Speed × time

= 30 × 2

= 60 feet

So the distance of the automobile from the intersection = 120 - 60

= 60 feet

Distance traveled by truck in 2 seconds = 40 × 2

= 80 feet

Now distance between them can be calculated by Pythagoras theorem

Distance = \sqrt{(60)^{2}+(80)^{2}}

= \sqrt{3600+6400}

= \sqrt{10000}

= 100 feet

Therefore, after 2 seconds distance between the truck and the automobile will be 100 feet.

Write a linear equation that is parallel to
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

2y=11 - 5x

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation that is parallel shares the same gradient thus

2y= -5x - 8

y = -5/2x- 4

gradient m = -5/2

substitute value of m and the co-ordinates into a new linear equation

y = mx + c

-9 = (-5/2)(8) + c

c = 20-9 = 11

thus y = -5/2x + 11

2y=11 - 5x
