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.

PLEASE ANSWER <br><br> ...<br> Subtract-3x – 8 from 4x2<br> 72 – 2.
agasfer [191]
I’m guessing you meant 4x^2 (x to the power of two or x squared) rather than 4x2 (4 multiplied by two, meaning 8).

4x^2 -(-3x-8)
= 4x^2 +3x +8

72-2 = 70

A new club sent out 288 coupons to boost sales for next year's memberships. They provided 5 times as many to potential members t
Aliun [14]

Answer:

D. 48

Step-by-step explanation:

We don't know the numbers of coupons sent to existing members and to potential members, but we know a relationship between the number.

They sent 5 times as many coupons to potential members as they did to existing members.

Let x = number of coupons sent to existing members.

Then 5x = number of coupons sent to potential members.

The total number of coupons sent was x + 5x = 6x

The total number of coupons sent was 288.

Therefore, 6x must equal 288 giving us an equation with a single variable.

6x = 288

x = 48

Answer: 48

Elanso [62]

Answer:

30, 30, 32, 32, 34, 38, 38, 38. Thats how you first need to set it up then what you do is add them all up which would equal to 272. Then you take 272 dived by how many numbers there are (theres 8 numbers) so you do 272/8 which would be 34! So 34 would be your answer.
