Answer:

N(AUC∩B') = 121

The number of students that like Reese's Peanut Butter Cups or Snickers, but not Twix is 121

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A represent snickers, B represent Twix and C represent Reese's Peanut Butter Cups.

Given;

N(A) = 150

N(B) = 204

N(C) = 206

N(A∩B) = 75

N(A∩C) = 100

N(B∩C) = 98

N(A∩B∩C) = 38

N(Total) = 500

How many students like Reese's Peanut Butter Cups or Snickers, but not Twix;

N(AUC∩B')

This can be derived by first finding;

N(AUC) = N(A) + N(C) - N(A∩C)

N(AUC) = 150+206-100 = 256

Also,

N(A∩B U B∩C) = N(A∩B) + N(B∩C) - N(A∩B∩C) = 75 + 98 - 38 = 135

N(AUC∩B') = N(AUC) - N(A∩B U B∩C) = 256-135 = 121

N(AUC∩B') = 121

The number of students that like Reese's Peanut Butter Cups or Snickers, but not Twix is 121

See attached venn diagram for clarity.

Suppose an isosceles triangle abc has a=pi/4 and b=c=4. What is the length of a^2?
Zanzabum

The law of cosines states that, if \alpha is the angle between sides b and c,

a^2 = b^2+c^2-2bc\cos(\alpha)

So, plugging our values, we have

a^2 = 16+16-2\cdot 4\cdot 4\cdot\cos\left(\dfrac{\pi}{4}\right)

This is equal to

a^2 = 32-32\cdot\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2} = 32-16\sqrt{2}
