Answer:

If there are 10 students taking only chemistry, 9 students taking only physics, and 5 students only taking both chemisty and 16 students are taking neither; I would add 10+9+5+16=40 (total students) and divide 10/40 (25% chemistry) 9/40 (22.5% physics) 5/40 (12.5% both) 16/40 (40% neither)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Determine a single event with a single outcome.

2. Identify the total number of outcomes that can occur.

3. Divide the number of events by the number of possible outcomes.

Lianne charged twice as much to walk a large dog than she did to walk a small dog. This week she had time to was 10 small dogs a
guapka [62]
Well she charged twice as much to walk large then small. Let s be small and l be large.
We we know that
l = 2s

we also know that she wants to make 100 so
xl + ys = 100

Where where x is number of large and y is number of small. it says she walked 10 small and 5 large so
5l + 10s = 100

substitute 2s for l because they are same value as shown in first equation I made
5 (2s) + 10s = 100
10s + 10s = 100
20s = 100
s = 5

we can now solve for l
l = 2s
l = 2 * 5
l = 10

So s is 5 and l is 10.
