Answer:

BC = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Since line segment AC = 28, that means line segment AB and line segment BC must add up to 28:

x - 10 + x + 2 = 28

2x - 8 = 28

2x = 36

x = 18

Now we plug in <em>x</em> into segment BC's equation to find length of BC:

BC = x + 2

BC = 18 + 2

BC = 20

Answer:

BC = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

AC = AB + BC

28 = x-10 + x+2

Combine like terms

28 = 2x -8

Add 8 to each side

28+8 = 2x-8+8

36 = 2x

Divide by 2

36/2 = 2x/2

18 =x

We want to find BC

BC = x+2

     =18+2

     =20

60 because 2:4 is 1/2, and when you divide by a fraction, you multiply by the reciprocal (2/1 instead of 1/2) which would be 60 in this case.

In a survey of 300 house wires. It was discovered
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

46 housewives read all three magazines.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

        n(A) = 150

        n(B) = 200

        n(C) = 156

        n(A∩B) = 48

        n(B∩C) = 60

        n(A∩C) = 52

         n(A∪B∪C) = 300

so we know the relation as:

  n(A∪B∪C) = n(A) + n(B) + n(C) - n(A∩B) - n(B∩C) - n(A∩C) + n(A∩B∩C)

∴ n(A∩B∩C) = n(A) + n(B) + n(C) - n(A∩B) - n(B∩C) - n(A∩C)  - n(A∪B∪C)

                    = 150 + 200+ 156 - 48 - 60 - 52 - 300

                   = 46

Hence the number of housewives that had read all three magazine is 46.
