A student measures the volume of a rubber stopper and finds that it is 36ml. The

Tania bought 4 more pounds of pears than Wilma. Together, Tania and Wilma bought 18 pounds of pears.

The equation would be (x+4)+x=18. X stands for the amount of pears Wilma bought, and (x+4) is the amount of pears Tania bought (because she bought four more pounds than Wilma). (X+4)+x=18 2x+4=18 (now you subtract four from both sides) 2x=14 (to get x by itself, divide both sides by 2) X=7 Wilma bought 7 pounds of pears :3

The probability that an adult likes soccer is aged between 18–30 will be 44.4%.

We have an adult who likes soccer.

We have to determine the probability the adult is aged 18–30.

<h3>What is Probability?</h3>

The formula to calculate the probability of occurrence of an event 'A' can be written as -

P(A) = $\frac{n(A)}{n(S)}$

where -

n(A) = Number of outcomes favorable to event A.

n(S) = Total number of outcomes.

According to question, we have an adult likes soccer.

The answer to this question is based on the hypothesis that the adults between 18 - 30 are highly energetic. To be more precisely - the adults in the range 18 - 24 and 24 - 30 are highly energetic and full of stamina. Above the age 30, the number of adults who like soccer will start to decrease and will hit nearly zero between the age range of 55 - 65 as the adults in this age group found it very difficult to even walk.
