Let <em>A</em>, <em>B</em>, and <em>C</em> denote the sets of students that have taken calculus, sociology, and Spanish, respectively.

We're given that A\cup B\cup C consists of 187 students.

We want to find the size of A\cap B\cap C, given that

• <em>A</em> has 61 students;

• <em>B</em> has 78;

• <em>C</em> has 72;

• A\cap B has 15;

• A\cap C has 20; and

• B\cap C has 13.

Using the inclusion/exclusion principle, we have

|A\cup B\cup C|=|A|+|B|+|C|-(|A\cap B|+|A\cap C|+|B\cap C|)+|A\cap B\cap C|

where |<em>X</em>| denotes the size of the set <em>X</em>. Plug in all the known sizes:

187=61+78+72-(15+20+13)+|A\cap B\cap C|

\implies|A\cap B\cap C|=24

so 24 students have taken all three classes.

In rectangle ABCD, AB = 10 cm and BC = 14 cm. If rectangle EFGH is the image after a dilation, which could be its side lengths?
lana [24]

Answer is D

After dilation the image remain same but it is stretched or shrinked to the original size.

That means the ratio of the sides and the angles between the sides remain same .

Here we did dilation of ABCD which made it to EFGH.

Hence the ratio of the corresponding sides of the original rectangle ABCD should remain same even after dilation.

the corresponding sides are : AB and EF

BC and FG

CD and GH

DA and HE

* Let us find ratio of the sides AB and BC

given that AB= 10 and BC= 14

AB/BC= 10/14 = 5 /7 ( 10 and 14 both are multiple of 2 so we reduced them by a factor of 2 )

* the raio of the corresponding sides EF and FG should be same ( 5/7)

in the option D EF= 25 and FG= 35

so EF/FG= 25/35 = 5 /7 ( both are multiple of 5 so we reduced them by the factor of 5 )

Since ratio of the corresponding sides are coming out to be same for the EFGH given in option D it should be the dilation of the ABCD

If the ratio of the radii of two spheres is 2:3, the ratio of their surface areas will be 8:27.
Slav-nsk [51]
<span>The ratio of 2 similar areas is the square of the ratio of their RADIUS or (sides)
R²=(2/3)² = 4/9 This should be the answer

Whereas R³ = (2/3)³ = 8/27 is the ratio of their volume & not area
