Answer:

a. The number of students who can play all three instruments = 2 students

b. The number of students who can play only the saxophone is 0

c. The number of students who can play the saxophone and the clarinet but not the flute = 4 students

d. The number of students who can play only one of the clarinet, saxophone, or flute = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of students available = 29

The number of students that can play flute = 11 students

The number of students that can play clarinet = 15 students

The number of students that can play saxophone = 12 students

The number of students that can play flute and saxophone = 4 students

The number of students that can play flute and clarinet = 4 students

The number of students that can play clarinet and saxophone = 6 students

Let the number of students who could play flute = n(F) = 11

The number of students who could play clarinet = n(C) = 15

The number of students who could play saxophone = n(S) = 12

We have;

a. Total = n(F) + n(C) + n(S) - n(F∩C) - n(F∩S) - n(C∩S) + n(F∩C∩S) + n(non)

Therefore, we have;

29 = 11 + 15 + 12 - 4 - 4 - 6 + n(F∩C∩S) + 3

29 = 24 + n(F∩C∩S) + 3

n(F∩C∩S) = 29 - (24 + 3) = 2

The number of students who can play all = 2

b. The number of students who can play only the saxophone = n(S) - n(F∩S) - n(C∩S) - n(F∩C∩S)

The number of students who can play only the saxophone = 12 - 4 - 6 - 2 = 0

The number of students who can play only the saxophone = 0

c. The number of students who can play the saxophone and the clarinet but not the flute = n(C∩S) - n(F∩C∩S) = 6 - 2 = 4

The number of students who can play the saxophone and the clarinet but not the flute = 4 students

d. The number of students who can play only the saxophone = 0

The number of students who can play only the clarinet = n(C) - n(F∩C) - n(C∩S) - n(F∩C∩S) = 15 - 4 - 6 - 2 = 3

The number of students who can play only the clarinet = 3

The number of students who can play only the flute = n(F) - n(F∩C) - n(F∩S) - n(F∩C∩S) = 11 - 4 - 4 - 2 = 1

The number of students who can play only the flute = 1

Therefore, the number of students who can play only one of the clarinet, saxophone, or flute = 1 + 3 + 0 = 4

The number of students who can play only one of the clarinet, saxophone, or flute = 4.

У - 6x = ||<br> -77<br> - 2x-3y=-7
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

<h2>x= 37/16</h2><h3>y=199/8</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

1....y=11+6x

-77-2x+3y=-7

replace y by ..1..

so   -77-2x+3(11+6x)=-7

-77-2x+33+18x=-7

-44+16x=-7

16x=37

y=11+6x

replace x by 37/16

y=11+6*37/16

y=199/8
