Question

In a certain Algebra 2 class of 29 students, 13 of them play basketball and 14 of them play baseball. There are 11 students who play neither sport. What is the probability that a student chosen randomly from the class plays both basketball and baseball?​

Answer 1

Answer:

9/29

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 29 students.  11 don't play a sport, so there are 18 students who play a sport.

The number of students who play both sports is:

18 = 13 + 14 − x

x = 9

So the probability is 9/29.
