There are a total of 96 children in Years 4, 5 and 6
BaLLatris [955]

Answer: 20 children

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>

Year 4: 11 cannot swim

Year 5: 21 can swim

Year 6: 18 of 30 can swim

Total 96 children

Total 37 cannot swim

<u>First Step: find the number of people from year 5 who cannot swim</u>

  • There are 30-18=12 people who cannot swim in year 6
  • There are 11 who cannot swim in year 4
  • Thus, we use the total number [37]-[year 4+year 6]=37-23=14 people who cannot swim in the year 5

<u>Second Step: find the number of children in year 5</u>

  • There are 21 children who can swim
  • There are 14 children who cannot swim
  • 21+14=35 children

<u>Third Step: find the number of children in year 4 who can swim</u>

  • There are 30 children in year 6
  • There are 35 children in year 5
  • There are 11 children in year 4 who cannot swim
  • There are in total 96 children
  • 96-30-35-11=20 children in year 4 who can swim

Hope this helps!! :)

Answer:

  • 6912xy^8

Step-by-step explanation:

The 9th term is the next-to-last term, where the left term of the binomial is raised to the first power, the right term of the binomial is raised to the 8th power (9-1=8), and the multiplier is 9C8 = 9!/(8!·1!) = 9. This product is ...

  9·(3x)^1·(-2y)^8 = 6912xy^8
