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.
Is skipped a number and that's not good
The lowest common denominator is 21
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's identify what we are looking for in terms of variables. Sandwiches are s and coffee is c. Casey buys 3 sandwiches, which is represented then by 3s, and 5 cups of coffee, which is represented by 5c. Those all put together on one bill comes to 26. So Casey's equation for his purchases is 3s + 5c = 26. Eric buys 4 sandwiches, 4s, and 2 cups of coffee, 2c, and his total purchase was 23. Eric's equation for his purchases then is 4s + 2c = 23. In order to solve for c, the cost of a cup of coffee, we need to multiply both of those bolded equations by some factor to eliminate the s's. The coefficients on the s terms are 4 and 3. 4 and 3 both go into 12 evenly, so we will multiply the first bolded equation by 4 and the second one by -3 so the s terms cancel out. 4[3s + 5c = 26] means that 12s + 20c = 104. Multiplying the second bolded equation by -3: -3[4s + 2c = 23] means that -12s - 6c = -69. The s terms cancel because 12s - 12s = 0s. We are left with a system of equations that just contain one unknown now, which is c, what we are looking to solve for. 20c = 104 and -6c = -69. Adding those together by the method of elimination (which is what we've been doing all this time), 14c = 35. That means that c = 2.5 and a cup of coffee is $2.50. There you go!
