Answer: 26 attendees had none of the three.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Venn diagram illustrating the situation is shown in the attached photo.

C represents the set of statisticians that had Caesar salad.

R represents the set of statisticians that had roast beef.

A represents the set of statisticians that had apple pie for dessert.

x represents the number that had Caesar salad and apple pie for dessert only.

y represents the number that had Caesar salad and roast beef.

z represents the number that had roast beef and apple pie for dessert only.

If 15 had at least two of those three offerings,it means that

x + y + z = 15

Therefore,

35 - (x + y + 2) + 28 - (y + z + 2) + 45 - (x + z + 2) + 2 + none = 100

35 - x - y - 2 + 28 - y - z - 2 + 45 - x - z - 2 + 2 + none = 100

35 + 28 + 45 - x - x - y - y - z - z - 2 - 2 - 2 + 2 + none = 100

108 - 2x - 2y - 2z - 4 + none = 100

108 - 4 - 2(x + y + z) + none = 100

Since x + y + z = 15, then

104 - 2(15) + none = 100

74 + none = 100

none = 100 - 74 = 26

You are making a recipe that calls for cream of mushroom soup. There is a deal at the store, where you can buy 10 cans of soup f
Olenka [21]

Answer:

The cost of 6 cans of soup =   $7.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of 10 cans of soup = $13

The number of cans needed for the soup = 6

Now, Cost of 1 can of soup =\frac{\textrm{Total cost of 10 cans of soup}}{\textrm{10}}

= $13 / 10 =$1.3

⇒The cost of 1 can of soup is $1.3

Now, The cost of 6 cans of soup  =  6 x   Cost of 1 can

⇒ 6 x $1.3 =  $7.8

Hence, the cost of 6 cans of soup =   $7.8

EastWind [94]

Answer:

x=larger no

y= smaller no

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=7--------(1)

x=16 + 2y------(2)

(2)--->(1)

16+2y+y = 7

3y + 16 = 7

3y = -9

y = -3//

so x=10

Problem
Sergeu [11.5K]

The lengths of HJ and JK are 50 and 72 respectively.

Given: J is between H and K. the length of HJ=2x+4, JK=3x+3, and HK=22.

The line HJ and JK are  collinear then the total length is given as: HJ+JK=HK

substitute values

⇒ (2x+4)+(3x+3)=22

⇒ 5x+7=22

⇒ 5x=22-7

⇒ 5x=15

⇒ x=3

Thus, the length of HJ is (2x+4)=(2*3+4)=10

And the length of JK is (3x+3)=(3*3+3)=12
