. In an extra-curricular club with 15 members,7 people played rugby, 6 people played soccer and 4 people neither play rugby nor soccer. How many people played both rugby and soccer?

Answers

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

In the above question, we are given the following information:

Total member in the club = 15

Rugby = n(R) = 7

Soccer = n(S) = 6

Neither Rugby nor Soccer = 4

Rugby and soccer = n( R ∩ S) = (Unknown)

Total number of club members = n(R) + n(S) - n( R ∩ S) + Neither Rugby nor soccer

15 = 7 + 6 - n( R ∩ S) + 4

15 = 17 - n( R ∩ S)

15 - 17 = - n( R ∩ S)

-2 = - n( R ∩ S)

n( R ∩ S) = 2

Therefore, the number of people that played both rugby and soccer is 2

4 3/4 - 2 3/8 thanks

Answers

Answer:

2 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

First get the LCM (Least Common Multiple) for the denominators so we can subtract them.  The denominators would both be 8 because it is the lowest number that they can have to be able to subtract.  (The LCM).  So is 4 3/4 has a denominator of 8 it'll become:

4 3/4= 4 6/8 because if 4 turned into 8, that means it multiplied by 2.  So, you need to multiply 3 by 2 as well which equals 6.  This is it as a ratio:

3:4 into x:8    

So 4 times 2, which means you need to do 3 times 2 as well.  It equals 6.

So now that we know 4 3/4 is 4 6/8, it is time to subtract.  2 3/8 already has a denominator of 8 so we don't need to do anything with that.  Subtract.

4 6/8-2 3/8= 2 3/8.  4-2=2, so the whole number is 2.  6-3= 3, so the numerator (the top number) is 3.  The denominator (the bottom number) always stays the same so it is the same, which is 8.

Evaluate the expression for x= 3 and y= 6.
51x² + y + 3​

Answers

Answer:

468

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is: 51x² + y + 3​

Let's first find x.  It says x= 3, so let's subsitute that in.

51(3)² + y + 3​

3² is 9 because 3 times 3 is 9, which means:

51(9) + y + 3​.  

It is 51 times 9 and not 519 because x was supposed to be squared by itself and 51 was next to it.  When a number is close to another number, especially with parentheses, it wants you to multiply the two together.  

For example: 3(3) is 9 and 4(5) is 20.

Now that we found x, let's get y.  The problem states that y= 6...let's subsitute that in.  

51(9) + 6 + 3​.  

Now that we got all the variables out of the way, we can simplify!

51 times 9= 459

459+6+3 is the same thing as 459+9, since 6+3= 9.

459+15= 468  :)

If an arrow is shot upward on Mars with a speed of 62 m/s, its height in meters t seconds later is given by y = 62t − 1.86t². (Round your answers to two decimal places.) Estimate the speed when t = 1. Can you please show me the steps to solve this?

Answers

Answer:

Approximately [tex]58.28\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

The velocity of an object is the rate at which its position changes. In other words, the velocity of an object is equal to the first derivative of its position, with respect to time.

Note that the arrow here is launched upwards. (Assume that the effect of wind on Mars is negligible.) There would be motion in the horizontal direction. The horizontal position of this arrow will stays the same. On the other hand, the vertical position of this arrow is the same as its height: [tex]y = 62\, t - 1.86\, t^2[/tex].

Apply the power rule to find the first derivative of this [tex]y[/tex] with respect to time [tex]t[/tex].

By the power rule:

the first derivative of [tex]t[/tex] (same as the first derivative of [tex]t^2[/tex] (same as [tex]t[/tex] to the second power) with respect to

Therefore:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\frac{dy}{d t} &= \frac{d}{d t}\left[62 \, t - 1.86\, t^2\right] \\ &= 62\,\left(\frac{d}{d t}\left[t\right]\right) - 1.86\, \left(\frac{d}{d t}\left[t^2\right]\right) \\ &= 62 \times 1 - 1.86\times\left(2\, t) = 62 - 3.72\, t\end{aligned}[/tex].

In other words, the (vertical) velocity of this arrow at time [tex]t[/tex] would be [tex](62 - 3.72\, t)[/tex] meters per second.

Evaluate this expression for [tex]t = 1[/tex] to find the (vertical) velocity of this arrow at that moment: [tex]62 - 3.72 \times 1 =58.28[/tex].

Answer:

58.28 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 62t - 1.86t²

Speed, S = dy/dt = 62 - 2(1.86)t

S = 62 - 3.72t

When t = 1

S = 62 - 3.72 = 58.28 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Water drunk by Elina = 3 liters

Jada drank the water [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] times as much as water as Elina.

Therefore, water drunk by Jada = [tex]\frac{3}{4}\times 3[/tex]

If sin∅+cos∅ = 1 , find sin∅.cos∅.​

Answers

Answer:  0

=============================================

Explanation:

The original equation is in the form a+b = 1, where

a = sin(theta)

b = cos(theta)

Square both sides of a+b = 1 to get

(a+b)^2 = 1^2

a^2+2ab+b^2 = 1

(a^2+b^2)+2ab = 1

From here notice that a^2+b^2 is sin^2+cos^2 = 1, which is the pythagorean trig identity. So we go from (a^2+b^2)+2ab = 1 to 1+2ab = 1 to 2ab = 0 to ab = 0

Therefore,

sin(theta)*cos(theta) = 0

Answer:

sin ∅ cos ∅ = 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

(sin∅+cos∅)^2 = 1^2 = 1

(sin∅+cos∅)^2  = sin^2∅ + cos^2∅ + 2sin ∅ cos ∅ = 1

But  sin^2∅ + cos^2∅ = 1, so:  

2sin ∅ cos ∅ + 1 = 1

2 sin ∅ cos ∅ = 1 - 1 = 0

sin ∅ cos ∅ = 0.

How do the number line graphs of the solutions sets of Negative 23 greater-than x and x greater-than-or-equal-to negative 23 differ?

For "x greater-than-or-equal-to negative 23", highlight the right half of the number line starting at -23, and use a square bracket [ on -23.

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by locating the number -23 on the number line. Please see attached image to accompany the explanation.

In the first case:  "Negative 23 greater-than x" , which is expressed mathematically as:

[tex]-23 >x[/tex]

notice that "x" has to be strictly smaller than the number -23, therefore those sought x values must reside to the left of the number -23, so we have to highlight that half of the number line. Apart from that, we need to include a symbol on top of the number -23, that indicates that -23 itself shouldn't be considered as part of the set, that symbol is by convention a parenthesis ).

In the second case: "x greater-than-or-equal-to negative 23", which is expressed mathematically as:

[tex]x\geq -23[/tex]

notice that "x" has to be greater than or equal to the number -23, therefore those sought x values must reside to the right of the number -23, so we have to highlight that half of the number line.

Answers

Answer:

232 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the number of cars that entered is c.

At 9:00 am, there are a total of 24 + c cars and 64 trucks. We know that this value of 64 represents 1/5 of the total number of vehicles. The total number of vehicles is (24 + c) + 64 = 88 + c. So, we have:

64/(88 + c) = 1/5

Cross-multiply:

88 + c = 64 * 5 = 320

c = 320 - 88 = 232

Thus, the answer is 232 cars.

Solve. 4x−y−2z=−8 −2x+4z=−4 x+2y=6 Enter your answer, in the form (x,y,z), in the boxes in simplest terms. x= y= z=

Answers

Answer:

(-2, 4, 2)

Where x = -2, y = 4, and z = 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the system of three equations:

[tex]\displaystyle \left\{ \begin{array}{l} 4x -y -2z = -8 \\ -2x + 4z = -4 \\ x + 2y = 6 \end{array}[/tex]

And we want to find the value of each variable.

Note that both the second and third equations have an x.

Therefore, we can isolate the variables for the second and third equation and then substitute them into the first equation to make the first equation all one variable.

Solve the second equation for z:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} -2x+4z&=-4 \\ x - 2 &= 2z \\ z&= \frac{x-2}{2}\end{aligned}[/tex]

Likewise, solve the third equation for y:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} x+2y &= 6\\ 2y &= 6-x \\ y &= \frac{6-x}{2} \end{aligned}[/tex]

Substitute the above equations into the first:

[tex]\displaystyle 4x - \left(\frac{6-x}{2}\right) - 2\left(\frac{x-2}{2}\right)=-8[/tex]

And solve for x:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} 4x+\left(\frac{x-6}{2}\right)+(2-x) &= -8 \\ \\ 8x +(x-6) +(4-2x) &= -16 \\ \\ 7x-2 &= -16 \\ \\ 7x &= -14 \\ \\ x &= -2\end{aligned}[/tex]

Hence, x = -2.

Find z and y using their respective equations:

Second equation:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} z&=\frac{x-2}{2} \\ &= \frac{(-2)-2}{2} \\ &= \frac{-4}{2} \\ &= -2\end{aligned}[/tex]

Third equation:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} y &= \frac{6-x}{2}\\ &= \frac{6-(-2)}{2}\\ &= \frac{8}{2}\\ &=4\end{aligned}[/tex]

In conclusion, the solution is (-2, 4, -2)

Answer:

x = -2

y =4

z=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

4x−y−2z=−8

−2x+4z=−4

x+2y=6

Solve the second equation for x

x = 6 -2y

Substitute into the first two equations

4x−y−2z=−8

4(6-2y) -y -2 = 8  

24 -8y-y -2z = 8

-9y -2z = -32

−2(6-2y)+4z=−4

-12 +4y +4z = -4

4y+4z = 8

Divide by 4

y+z = 2

z =2-y

Substitute this into -9y -2z = -32

-9y -2(2-y) = -32

-9y -4 +2y = -32

-7y -4 = -32

-7y =-28

y =4

Now find z

z = 2-y

z = 2-4

z = -2

Now find x

x = 6 -2y

x = 6 -2(4)

x =6-8

x = -2

Answers

Answer:

m∠U = 103° and m∠TRS = 6°

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given circle O,

Since, RS║VU, and VR is a transverse,

Therefor, m∠V + m∠R = 180° [Consecutive interior angles]

m∠R + 103° = 180° [m∠R = 103° given]

m∠R = 180° - 103°

m∠R = 77°

Since m∠R = m∠VRT + m∠TRS

77° = 71° + m∠TRS

m∠TRS = 77° - 71° = 6°

Quadrilateral RTUV is a cyclic quadrilateral.

Therefore, m∠U + m∠R = 180°

m∠U + 77° = 180°

m∠U = 180° - 77° = 103°

Write 3.6 as a percent.

Answers

Answer:

360%

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to multiply 3.6 by one hundred to get the percentage. When you multiply decimals by numbers that are multiples of ten, you move the decimal place to the right of the number by the number of zeroes that is in your number. Sorry if its confusing.

Examples: 3.76 * 100 = 376. You move the decimal to the right two spaces

46.263 * 1000 = 46263. You move the decimal to the right three spaces. Hope you understand.

Answer:

2.75+11.50S[tex]\leq[/tex]55

4

Step-by-step explanation:

The Total amount of money Alonso went to the market with is: = $55

Items to be bought includes:

eggssugar

Alonso knows that:

A pack of 12 eggs costs = $2.75 Now, he wants to use the remaining amount to purchase as much sugar as possible

Requirement for his taste for sugar:

a box of sugar he likes = $11.50

From this information, the objective would be to determine the number of sugar he can purchase with the money left after he has already bought the eggs.

To start with, the amount of money left after buying the eggs is:

= $55 - $2.75

= $52.25

Now, if a box of sugar he likes cost = $11.50

Then he will be able to purchase (x( bost of sugar with = $52.50

Now, to determine the number of boxes of sugar he can purchase, we have:

1 box of sugar = $11.50

x(box) of sugar = $52.25

[tex]\mathbf{x (box) of sugar = \dfrac{\$52.25 \times 1 box of sugar }{\$11.50}}[/tex]

x = 4.5 box of sugar

Therefore, after buying a pack of 12 eggs for = $2.75, Alonso will be able to buy [tex]\mathbf{ 4\dfrac{1}{2}}[/tex]  or 4.5 boxes of sugar.

3a + 7 b = 2
2a + 9 b = 15

solve this linear equations using elimination method

please show your working ✨✨ THANK YOU

Answers

Answer:

a = -87/13

b = 41/13

Step-by-step explanation:

3a + 7b = 2

2a + 9b = 15

You need to have one of the coefficients have the same number but the opposite sign in both equations.  Multiply the first equation by -2 and the second equation by 3.  You will then be able to cancel out a and solve for b.

-2(3a + 7b) = -2(2)

-6a - 14b = -4

3(2a + 9b) = 3(15)

6a + 27b = 45

-6a - 14b = -4

6a + 27b = 45

0a + 13b = 41

13b = 41

b = 41/13

Plug in the b-value into one of the given equations and solve for a.

3a + 7b = 2

3a + 7(41/13) = 2

3a + 287/13 = 2

3a = -261/13

a = -87/13
