Answer:

The number of teachers who teach physics n(P) = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given that the number of teachers who teach mathematics or physics

n(MUP) = 20

Given that the number of teachers who teach mathematics

n(M) = 12

Given that the number of teachers who teach both mathematics and physics

n(M∩P) = 4

Step(ii):-

By using n(A∪B) = n(A) + n(B) - n(A∩B)

n(M∪P) = n(M) +n(P) - n(M∩P)

20 = 12 + n(P) - 4

20 -12 +4 = n(P)

n(P) = 12

Final answer:-

The number of teachers who teach physics n(P) = 12

Subtract 7x-9 from 2x^2-11 A) 2x^2-7x-2 B) 2x^2+7x-20 C) 2x^2+7x-2

Natali [406]

We keep the 2x^2 because we can only subtract something from that if it also is squared. From there, we subtract the 7x from 2x^2-11. Since there is no previous x's in the 2x^2-11, we just make it -7x. So, without even continuing the problem, we see that A) is the correct answer because it is the only one with -7x.
