i. The number of people who like banana only is 20.

ii. The number of people who like none of the fruits is zero.

iii. The number of people who like at most one fruit is 30.

The question has to do with sets.

<h3>What is a set?</h3>

A set a collection of well ordered items

<h3>i. How to find how many people like banana only.</h3>

Since we have 55 people, 3x + 5 people like banana and x + 5 people like apple. If all the people who like apple also like banana and if 2x + 15 people like at least one of fruit then, we have that

3x + 5 + x + 5 + 2x + 15 = 55

3x + 2x + x + 5 + 5 + 15 = 55

6x + 30 = 55

6x = 55 - 25

6x = 30

x = 30/6

x = 5

Since the number of people who like banana only is 3x + 5.

So, number of people who like banana only is n = 3x + 5

= 3(5) + 5

= 15 + 5

= 20

So, the number of people who like banana only is 20.

<h3>ii. The number of people who none of the fruits.</h3>

Since from the question, a person likes at least one fruit, either banana, apple or both. No one likes none of the fruits.

So, the number of people who like none of the fruits is zero.

<h3>iii. The number of people who like at most one fruit?</h3>

To like at most one fruit, the person either likes apple or banana.

So, their sum is n = 3x + 5 + x + 5

= 4x + 10.

Since x = 5, we have n = 4x + 10.

= 4(5) + 10

= 20 + 10

= 30

So, the number of people who like at most one fruit is 30.
