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.

4. The reflecting dish of a parabolic microphone has a cross-section in the shape of a parabola. The microphone itself is placed
elixir [45]
Assume the parabola is placed on a graph where the x-axis is the top of the dish.
The vertex is then at (0,-30)  The x-intercepts or zeros are at (-30,0) and (30,0)

The equation of such parabola would be:
y = a(x+30)(x-30)
Plug in vertex to find value of 'a'
-30 = a(0+30)(0-30) \\  \\ a = \frac{-30}{(-30)(30)} = \frac{1}{30}

Now find the focus given that p = \frac{1}{4a}
p = \frac{1}{4(1/30)} = \frac{30}{4} = 7.5

Answer: the microphone should be placed 7.5 inches from vertex.

Using technology, determine the monthly payment on a 35 month loan of $28,000 at 8.1% compounded annually. Round you answer to t
sdas [7]
Present Value of an annuity is given by the formular
PV = P(1 - (1 + r)^-n)/r; where PV = $28,000, r = 0.081/12 = 0.00675, n = 35 and P is the periodic (monthly) payment.

P = PVr/(1 - (1 + r)^-n) = (28,000 x 0.00675)/(1 - (1 + 0.00675)^-35) = 189/0.2098 = 900.90

Therefore, the monthly payment is $900.90

How do you imagine that you will use measurement in your future career?
tangare [24]

Measurement is used in many careers, but how it will be used depends on what career you want. For example, if I were to become an architect, I will have to use measurement to ensure that a building I'm designing does not collapse due to inconsistencies. On the other hand, if I were to become an animal caretaker, I will have to measure the food each animal receives to ensure that they get a healthy diet. There are many examples, so I can not help with every single one of them.
