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
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
By putting the numbers in the given equation,
2x + 3 + 3x = 7x + 9
5x + 3 = 7x + 9
(5x + 3) - 7x = (7x + 9) - 7x
(5x - 7x) + 3 = 9
-2x + 3 = 9
(-2x + 3) - 3 = 9 - 3
-2x = 6
-x = 3
x = -3
Therefore, our equation is correct which has a negative result.
In place of 6 if we use 8, value of x will be negative again.
In order to solve you get x by itself:
5-x=12
-5 -5
-x=7
divide by negative 1
Answer:
The box can hold 4 1/8 cubic feet of dirt
Step-by-step explanation:
What we simply have to find here is the volume of dirt it can take
To get this, we have to multiply the dimensions of the box
We have this as follows
Volume or box = length * width * height
Volume of box = 2 3/4 * 1/2 * 3
Volume of box = 11/4 * 3 * 1/2 = 33/8 = 4 1/8 cubic feet
