There are three clubs at Redwood High School: Debate, Student council, and Key club. There are 1000 students in the school. And

everyone is in at least one club.
• The total number of students in the debate club is 310
• The total number of students in the Student council is 650
• The total number who are in debate and student council is 170
• The total number of students who are in both debate and the key club are 150
• The total number of students who are in both student council and the key club is 180
• There are 50 students who are in all three clubs How many students are in the key club?

Answer:

The number of students in the key club is 490

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The number of student in the school = 1000

The total number of student in the debate club = 310

The total number of student in the student council = 650

The total number of student who are in debate and student council = 170

The total number of student who are in both debate and the key club = 150

The total number of student who are in both student council and the key club = 180

The number of students who are in all three clubs = 50

Therefore, we have;

Let A represent the number of students in the debate club

Let B represent the number of students in the student council

Let C represent the number of students in the key club

We have;

n(A∪B∪C) = n(A) + n(B) + n(C) - n(A∩B) - n(B∩C) - n(C∩A) + n(A∩B∩C)

Where;

n(A∪B∪C) = 1000

n(A) = 310

n(B) = 650

n(A∩B) = 170

n(B∩C) = 180

n(C∩A) = 150

n(A∩B∩C) = 50

Therefore;

n(C) = n(A∪B∪C) - (n(A) + n(B) - n(A∩B) - n(B∩C) - n(C∩A) + n(A∩B∩C))

Substituting the values gives;

n(C) = 1000 - (310 + 650 - 170 - 180 - 150 + 50) = 490

The number of students in the key club, n(C) = 490.

What is true of the graph of two lines 3y-8=-5x and 6y=-10x+16

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

Both lines are equal (they are the same)

<em></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$3y - 8 = -5x$

$6y = -10x + 16$

Required

What is true about graph of both lines

<em>Questions like this are better solved when there's option(s) to select from. However, some of the properties of line equation that I'll consider are to check if both lines are either parallel or perpendicular</em>

<em />

To do this,

The first thing to do is to calculate the slope of both lines

$3y - 8 = -5x$

Add 8 to both sides

$3y - 8 + 8 = -5x + 8$

$3y = -5x + 8$

Divide both sided by 3

$\frac{3y}{3} = -\frac{5x}{3} + \frac{8}{3}$

$y = -\frac{5x}{3} + \frac{8}{3}$

The slope of the line is the coefficient of x;

$Slope = -\frac{5}{3}$

Solve for the y intercept; <em>Let x = 0</em>

$y = -\frac{5 * 0}{3} + \frac{8}{3}$

$y = 0 + \frac{8}{3}$

$y = \frac{8}{3}$

Solve for the x intercept; <em>Let y = 0</em>

$0 = -\frac{5x}{3} + \frac{8}{3}$

Subtract $\frac{8}{3}$ from both sides

$0 - \frac{8}{3} = -\frac{5x}{3} + \frac{8}{3} - \frac{8}{3}$

$- \frac{8}{3} = -\frac{5x}{3}$

Subtract both sides by $-\frac{3}{5}$

$-\frac{3}{5}*- \frac{8}{3} = -\frac{5x}{3} * -\frac{3}{5}$

$-\frac{3}{5}*- \frac{8}{3} = x$

$\frac{3}{5} * \frac{8}{3} = x$

$\frac{8}{5} = x$

$x = \frac{8}{5}$

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

$6y = -10x + 16$

Divide both sides by 6

$\frac{6y}{6} = -\frac{10x}{6} + \frac{16}{6}$

$y = -\frac{10x}{6} + \frac{16}{6}$

Simplify fractions to lowest term

$y = -\frac{5x}{3} + \frac{8}{3}$

The slope of the line is the coefficient of x;

$Slope = -\frac{5}{3}$

Solve for the y intercept; <em>Let x = 0</em>

$y = -\frac{5 * 0}{3} + \frac{8}{3}$

$y = 0 + \frac{8}{3}$

$y = \frac{8}{3}$

Solve for the x intercept; <em>Let y = 0</em>

$0 = -\frac{5x}{3} + \frac{8}{3}$

Subtract $\frac{8}{3}$ from both sides

$0 - \frac{8}{3} = -\frac{5x}{3} + \frac{8}{3} - \frac{8}{3}$

$- \frac{8}{3} = -\frac{5x}{3}$

Subtract both sides by $-\frac{3}{5}$

$-\frac{3}{5}*- \frac{8}{3} = -\frac{5x}{3} * -\frac{3}{5}$

$-\frac{3}{5}*- \frac{8}{3} = x$

$\frac{3}{5} * \frac{8}{3} = x$

$\frac{8}{5} = x$

$x = \frac{8}{5}$

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

By comparing the slope, x intercept and y intercept of both lines;

It'll be observed that they have the same slope, x intercept and y intercept

<em>This implies that both lines are equal; in other words, they are the same.</em>

Bob and Carl each rented the same kind of moving truck from EZ Move. There was a flat rental fee plus a charge per mile that the

dexar [7]

Answer:

ok so we can turn both of these into equations

Bob: 112.96 divided by 138=0.81855072463

so about 82 cents per mile

Carl: 142.78 divided by 209=0.68315789473

so about 68 cents per mile

so ya i am a little confused but heres what i got

I just completed 12 questions on a test the progress bar shows 20% is complete how many total questions are on the test?

Mademuasel [1]

If 12 is 20%, then 24 is 40%, then 36 is 60%, then 48 is 80%, then 60 is 100%

So there are 60 questions on the test.
