Three hundred high school seniors were surveyed about their intended college majors. The results are displayed in the Venn Diagr

am below:
A Venn Diagram titled College Majors with two circles labeled Math and Science. In the math portion is 120. In the intersection is blank. In the Science portion is 50. The area outside the two circles is labeled 100.

If a student is randomly selected from the group, what is the probability that they are majoring in both math and science? Round your answer to the nearest whole percent.

I see what's going on, we have to find the number of students in the intersection. Math is 120, Science is 50, neither is 100. Add all of these together, 120 + 50 + 100 = 270, then subtract from 300, 300-270 = 30
Now, we divide 30/300 which gives .1, move the decimal over 2 places to the right and that makes it 10%

Answer: \frac{1}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, The total number of student = 300

Out of which,

The number of students who are only in Maths  = 120

And, The number of students who are only in Science  = 50

While, the students who are not from any subject = 100

Hence, the number of student who are from both maths and science = Total student - Maths student (only) - science student (only) - None

= 300 - 120 - 50 - 100

= 30

That is, there are 30 students who are both from science and maths,

Thus, the probability of selecting one student who is both from maths and science = 30/300 = 1/10

What is the greatest whole number that will divide both 792 and 990 exactly
Nastasia [14]
Factor the numbers, starting from the smallest:
792=2*3*3*11*4
990=2*3*3*11*5
the greatest whole number that can be divided by both 792 and 990 is 2*3*3*11=198
the smallest whole number that can divide both 792 and 990 exactly is 2*3*3*11*4*5=3960

Not sure which one you are asked to find.

The hypotenuse of a 45 -45° -90° triangle measures 18 cm. What is the length of one leg of the triangle?
sdas [7]
<h2>Steps</h2>

So the 45-45-90 triangle is considered to be a "special triangle" and has a rule with it. If the legs are x, then the hypotenuse is x√2. Since we know that the hypotenuse is 18, this means we can set up our equation as such:

x\sqrt{2} =18

From here we can solve for x. Firstly, divide both sides by √2.

x=\frac{18}{\sqrt{2}}

Next, we want to simplify this expression and to do that we first have to rationalize the denominator. With the right side, multiply the numerator and denominator by √2:

\frac{18}{\sqrt{2}}*\frac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}}=\frac{18\sqrt{2}}{2}\\\\\\x=\frac{18\sqrt{2}}{2}

Next, divide:

x=9\sqrt{2}

<h2>Answer</h2>

<u>In short, the length of one leg of the triangle is 9√2 cm.</u>

Complete the square to rewrite y = x2 - 6x + 15 in vertex form. Then state
love history [14]

Since x^2 is the square of x and 6x is twice the product between x and 3, the second square must be 3 squared, i.e. 9.

So, if we think of 15 as 9+6, we have

x^2-6x+9+6 = (x-3)^2+6

Which is the required vertex form. This form tells us imediately that the vertex is the point (3,6).

Since the leading coefficient is 1, the parabola is facing upwards (it's U shaped), so the vertex is a minimum.

15x²y³z÷3xy² simplify
umka21 [38]

Answer:

5xyz

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{15x^2y^3z}{3xy^2}

Step 1: Divide the numbers

\frac{15}{3}=5\\\\=\frac{5x^2y^3z}{xy^2}

Step 2: Simplify

\frac{x^2}{x}\\\\= x\\\\=\frac{5xy^3z}{y^2}

Step 3: Simplify

\frac{y^3}{y^2} = y\\\\=5xyz

Therefore, the simplified answer is =5xyz
