If the faster car is travelling 20 mph faster then slower car then the speed of slower car is 55mph and faster car is 75 mph.

Given that the faster car is travelling 20 mph faster than slower car and when slower car travels 165 miles the faster car travels 225 miles.

We are required to find the speed of slower car and faster car.

let the speed of slower car be x mph.

In this way the speed of faster car be (x+20) mph.

Speed=Distance/ time

We have to first take slower car.

x=165/Time

Time=165/x-----------1

Now by taking faster car.

x+20=225/time

Time=225/(x+20)-------2

From equation 1 an equation 2.

165/x=225/(x+20)

225x=165x+3300

225x-165x=3300

60x=3300

x=55 mph

Faster car=55+20

=75 mph.

Hence if the faster car is travelling 20 mph faster then slower car then the speed of slower car is 55mph and faster car is 75 mph.

A survey of 500 high school students was taken to determine their favorite chocolate candy. Of the 500 students surveyed, 42 lik
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Universal set

U = 500

The number that likes snickers

n(S) = 42

The number that like Twix.

n(T) = 110

The number that like Reeses

n(R) = 125

n(S n T) = 33

n(T n R) = 62

n(S n R) = 26

n( S n R n T) = 22

Then,

n(S n T) only = n(S n T) - n(S n R n T)

n(S n T) only =33 - 22 = 11

n(T n R) only = n(T n R) - n(S n R n T)

n(T n R) only =62 - 22 = 40

n(S n R) only = n(S n R) - n(S n R n T)

n(S n R) only =26 - 22 = 4.

Also,

n(S) only = n(S) - n(S n R) - n(S n T) only

n(S) only = 42 - 26 - 11 = 5

n(T) only = n(T) - n(T n R) - n(T n S) only

n(T) only = 110 - 62 - 11 = 37

n(R) only = n(R) - n(S n R) - n(R n T) only

n(R) only = 124 - 26 - 40 = 58

Then, to know if some student don't like any of the of chocolate,

Let know the number of students that like the chocolate candy

n(S) + n(T)only + n(T n R)only + n(R) only

42 + 37 + 40 + 58 = 177 students.

Therefore, the total students that like chocolate candy is 177, so those  that does not like any of them are

n(S U R U T)' = U – n(S U R U T)

n(S U R U T) = 500 - 177 = 323.

So, the question is how many student likes at most 2 kinds of these chocolates, this means that they can like exactly 2 or less or even none.

So, this category are

n(2 most) = n(S n T)only + n(R n T)only + n(S n R)only + n(s)only + n(T)only + n(R)only + n(S U R U T)'

n(2 most) = 11 + 40 + 4 + 5 + 37 + 58 + 323

n(2 most) = 478

The correct answer is E.
