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.

Solve for a -4+2(3a-5)=(1-1a)
Kobotan [32]
Distribute the two to each of the values in the parentheses.
-4 +6a-10= 1-1a

Then move like terms to the same side to simplify.
6a+1a=1+10+4
7a=15
a=15/7

Sam says 90 ÷ (–9) = 10. Is he correct? Use the drop–down menus to explain your answer.
SashulF [63]

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sam is incorrect because if you look at the original problem, you'll see that he has missed the negative sign!

90 / 9 does equal 10, but 90 / -9 equals -10.

The only way to get a positive answer is if both the divisor and dividend are positive or if they are both negative.

Thus, the correct answer should be -10.
