at a community college a survey was taken to determine where students study on campus. Of the 270 students surveyed, it was dete

rmined that 177 studied in the library , 142 studied in the cafeteria, 82 studied in both the library and the cafeteria. Of those students surveyed, how many studied only in the library?

Answer:

177

Step-by-step explanation:

Although it says that 82 studied in both, the question is aksing for ONLY at the library. It says that of the 270 surveyed, 177 study at the library.

This means that 65.56% of the students studied at the library primarely.

Answer:

95

Step-by-step explanation:

Use a Venn diagram;

2 places are identified where students may study, the library and the cafeteria so there are 2 circles;

One represents library (L) and the other is cafeteria (C);

82 goes in the overlap since 82 study in both places;

177 study in the library, but this includes the 82 that also study in the cafeteria, so 177 - 82 will give us the number who study only in the library, i.e. 95;

If we wanted to find the number who study only in the cafeteria, it would be similar;

142 study in cafeteria, including the 82 who also study in the library, therefore 142 - 82 will give the number who only study in the cafeteria, i.e. 60;

The number who study in neither the library nor the cafeteria would be the total number of students surveyed (270) take the 82 who study in both places and take the 95 who study only in the library and take the 60 who study only in the cafeteria, which gives 33 (i.e. 270 - 82 - 95 - 60)

Substitute the values for a, b, and c into b2 – 4ac to determine the discriminant. Which quadratic equations will have two real
hoa [83]

Answer: 0=2x^2-7x-9\\0=4x^2-3x-1\\0=x^2-2x-8


Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the standard quadratic equation is  ax^2+bx+c=0

Let's compare all the given equation to it and , find discriminant.

1. a=2, b= -7, c=-9

b^2-4ac=(-7)^2-4(2)(-9)=49+72>0

So it has 2 real number solutions.

2. a=1, b=-4, c=4

b^2-4ac=(-4)^2-4(1)(4)=16-16=0

So it has only 1 real number solution.

3. a=4, b=-3, c=-1

b^2-4ac=(-3)^2-4(4)(-1)=9+16=25>0

So it has 2 real number solutions.

4. a=1, b=-2, c=-8

b^2-4ac=(-2)^2-4(1)(-8)=4+32=36>0

So it has 2 real number solutions.

5. a=3, b=5, c=3

b^2-4ac=(5)^2-4(3)(3)=25-36=-9

Thus it does not has real solutions.

I don't understand the question. Help please?<br><br>Find the value of X<br><br>Find the value of Y
slava [35]
Let's start with x... Since angle AOE is a 90 degree angle, then we know the supplementary angle EOB is also 90 degrees.  The 2 angles that make up angle EOB are given to us as expressions.  Added together the must equal 90 degrees...

(x+8) + (2x-8) = 90
3x = 90
x = 30

Now if we look at y, we see it is an opposite angle from angle DOB.  Because it is opposite, it is also congruent... so it has to be equal to angle DOB... and since angle DOB is 2x - 8, we can substitute x with the answer we found in the last step, 30, to find the angle.

2x - 8= y
2(30) - 8 = y
60 - 8 = y
y = 52 degrees

Since angle DOB equals 52 degrees, then y = 52 degrees

x = 30 degrees
y = 52 degrees

*Note, you can also find the value of angles GOF and EOD by plugging x (30) into the expressions.

Is 3/4 and 3/8 equivalent fractions and why? Thanks
uranmaximum [27]
No, they are not equivalent. The numerators are equals, but the denominators are not, they are not equivalent. If the first one would be 6/8, they would be equivalent, because we can simplify the fractions by 2 and we got 3/4 again. Good luck !
