<h3>Solution:</h3>

<u>Note that:</u>

  • Total pupils: 31
  • 4 pupils = flute only
  • 14 pupils = piano only
  • 7 pupils = neither
  • This means that {31 - (4 + 14 + 7)} pupils play both instruments.

<u>First, let's find out the number of pupils who play both instruments.</u>

  • => {31 - (4 + 14 + 7)} pupils
  • => {31 - (25)} pupils
  • => {31 - 25} pupils
  • => 6 pupils

<u>Probability form:</u><em> Student who plays both instruments/Total students</em>

  • => 6/31

The probability that this student plays both instruments is 6/31.

Answer:

probability the student plays both instruments is [  \frac{6}{31}  ]

<h2>                         <u>Explanation</u>:</h2>

students who play both instruments = total students - flute players - piano players - students who play neither instruments

students who play both instruments

→ 31 - 4 - 14 - 7

→ 6 students play both instruments.

probability:

<h2>→  \boxed{\frac{students- who -play- both- instruments}{total -students} }</h2><h2>→                     \boxed{\frac{6}{31} }</h2>

Try to simplify 72/6+85/6
Reil [10]
72/6+ 85/6
= (72+ 85)/6
= 157/6
= (156+1)/ 6
= 156/6+ 1/6
= 26+ 1/6
= 26 1/6

The final answer is 26 1/6~

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:Number of squares colored red= 180-40= 140 squares

Step-by-step explanation:

Hannah has a grid of squares that has 12 rows with 15 squares in each row. This means the length of the gris is 15 squares and the breadth is 12 squares.

Area of grid = length × breadth

=15×12 = 180

She colors 5 rows of 8 squares in the middle of the grid blue. This means the part coloured blue has a length of 8 squares and breadth of 5 squares.

Area of blue colored part = 8×5 = 40

Number of squares colored red= total number of squares - number of square colored blue= 180-40= 140 squares

Describing Types of Dilations
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The key fact about the enlargement, scale factor > 1

The key fact about the reduction, 0 < scale factor < 1

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Let us explain what is the dilation?</em>

  • A dilation is a transformation that changes the size of a figure.
  • It can become larger or smaller, but the shape of the  figure does not change.
  • The scale factor measures how much larger or smaller  the image will be
  • If the scale factor greater than 1, then the image will be larger
  • If the scale factor between 0 and 1, then the image will be smaller

Enlargement means the image of a figure after dilation is larger than the original figure

Reduction means the image of a figure after dilation is smaller than the original figure

The key fact about the enlargement is that the scale factor of dilation must be greater than 1 ⇒ scale factor > 1

The key fact about the reduction is that the scale factor of dilation must be between 0 and 1 ⇒ 0 < scale factor < 1
