Answer: B ) \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The number of students in junior class n(S)= 50

The number of students take only Latin n(L-F)= 15

The number of students take only French n(F-L)=25

The number of students take both = n(F∩L)=10

The number of students take Latin n(L)=n(L-F)+n(F∩L)=15+10=25

Therefore, the probability that the student takes Latin is given by :-

\text{Probability(Latin)}=\frac{\text{number of students take latin}}{\text{Total students}}\\\\=\frac{25}{50}=\frac{1}{2}

There are 15 students who take Latin, and 10 students who take both.
Therefore:
15+10 =25 total students taking Latin
25students / 50 total students = 1/2

The answer is 1/2.

A graph of a quadratic function y = f(x) is shown below.
spin [16.1K]

We are given a graph of a quadratic function y = f(x) .

We need to find the solution set of the given graph of a quadratic function .

<em>Note: Solution of a function the values of x-coordinates, where graph cut the x-axis.</em>

For the shown graph, we can see that parabola in the graph doesn't cut the x-axis at any point.

It cuts only y-axis.

Because solution of a graph is only the values of x-coordinates, where graph cut the x-axis. Therefore, there would not by any solution of the quadratic function y = f(x).

<h3>So, the correct option is 2nd option :∅.</h3>
