Answer:

B) 23

Explanation:

Table: Algebra | No algebra | Total

Physics | 4 Step 1: 8 12

No physics |Step 2: 15

Total | 19 30

We look for the number of people who are in algebra and no physics or physics and no algebra.

1. 12 - 4 = 8

2. 19 - 4 = 15

3. We find the total of those numbers: 15 + 8 = 23
