Answer:

<h2>2/5</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not correctly outlined, here is the correct question

<em>"Suppose that a certain college class contains 35 students. of these, 17 are juniors, 20 are mathematics majors, and 12 are neither. a student is selected at random from the class. (a) what is the probability that the student is both a junior and a mathematics majors?"</em>

Given data

Total students in class= 35 students

Suppose M is the set of juniors and N is the set of mathematics majors. There are 35 students in all, but 12 of them don't belong to either set, so

|M ∪ N|= 35-12= 23

|M∩N|=  |M|+N- |MUN|= 17+20-23

           =37-23=14

So the probability that a random student is both a junior and social science major is

=P(M∩N)= 14/35

=2/5

To paint a house, a painting company charges a flat rate of 500 for supplies plus $50 for each hour of labor. What is the slope
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

slope = $50

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the linear equation, y = mx + b:

The slope (m) is the rate of change for every<em> x </em>number of labor hours. What this implies is that whenever the input (x-value) or the number of labor hours increases or decreases, the value of y (total cost) will increase by the given slope value.

Slope: The painting company charges $50 for every 1 hour of labor.

The y-intercept (b) represents the flat rate or initial value. In the given problem, it states that the company charges $500 for supplies. This means that regardless of whether the company finishes working on the painting job, they will charge their customers the flat rate.

Combined, the linear equation will be:

y = 50x + 500
