At Tubman Middle School, there are 6 English teachers and 5 science teachers. If each student takes one English class and one science class how many possible combinations of
teachers are there?

There are 30 possible combinations of teachers.

Given that at Tubman Middle School, there are 6 English teachers and 5 science teachers, to determine, if each student takes one English class and one science class, how many possible combinations of teachers are there, the following calculation must be performed:

To calculate possible combinations, the number of options A must be multiplied by the number of options B. Thus, the calculation would be as follows.

6 x 5 = X

30 = X

Therefore, there are 30 possible combinations of teachers.

the circle one

ad = ae + ed = y + 7

similar triangles therefor

ac/ab = ad/ae

6/4 = (y + 7) / y

cross multiply

6y = 4(y + 7)

6y = 4y + 28

2y = 28

y = 14
