A survey of athletes at a high school is conducted, and the following facts are discovered: 29% of the athletes are football players, 63% are basketball players, and 24% of the athletes play both football and basketball. An athlete is chosen at random from the high school: what is the probability that he is either a football player or a basketball player?

Step-by-step explanation:

29% athletes are football players and 24% of the athletes are both football and basketball player.

Hence, (29 - 24) = 5% athletes are football player but not basketball player.

Similarly, (63 - 24) = 39% athletes are basketball player but not a football player.

Hence, the required probability is .

the answer is the third / last answer

step-by-step explanation:

14.3

step-by-step explanation:

add all the numbers together.

9 + 12 + 15 + 16 + 17 + 17 = 86

now, divide 86 by how many numbers we have: 6.

86 / 6 = 14.3
