Answer:

(a) 16 students failed for exactly two of the three reasons.

(b) 7 students failed because of poor attendance and not studying but not because of not turning in assignments.

(c) 14 students failed because of exactly one of the three reasons.

(d) 3 students failed because of poor attendance and not turning in assignments but not because of not studying.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that one semester in a chemistry class, 14 students failed due to poor attendance, 23 failed due to not studying, 15 failed because they did not turn in assignments, 9 failed because of poor attendance and not studying, 8 failed because of not studying and not turning in assignments, 5 failed because of poor attendance and not turning in assignments, and 2 failed because of all three of these reasons.

As shown in the diagram attached below, a Venn diagram represents the situation given in the question;

In the diagram below, 2 in represents purple color represents the number of students failed because of all three of these reasons.

7 represents the number of students who failed because of poor attendance and not studying but not due to not turning in assignments.

6 represents the number of students who failed because of not studying and not turning in assignments but not due to poor attendance.

3 represents the number of students who failed because of poor attendance and not turning in assignments but not due to not studying.

2 in red color represents the number of students who failed only due to poor attendance.

8 in red color represents the number of students who failed only due to not studying.

4 in red color represents the number of students who failed only due to not turning in assignments.

(a) The number of students who failed because of exactly two of the three reasons = 7 + 6 + 3 = 16 students.

(b) The number of students who failed because of poor attendance and not studying but not because of not turning in assignments = 9 - 2 = 7 students.

(c) The number of students who failed because of exactly one of the three reasons = 2 + 8 + 4 = 14 students.

(d) The number of students who failed because of poor attendance and not turning in assignments but not because of not studying = 5 - 2 = 3 students.

Six plus -2 times a number is the same as 26 plus six times the same number.
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be x

and according to question,

six + 2 times a number = 2x + 6

26 + 6 times a number = 6x + 26

→ 2x + 6 = 6x + 26

→ -6x + 2x = 26 - 6

→ -4x = 20

→ x = 20/4 = 5

→ x = 5

therefore, the number is 5.

hope this answer helps you dear...take care and may u have a great day ahead!

Help me with the right answer
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

x = 3

y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

9x - y = 26  ---------------(I)

9x + y = 28 ---------------(II)

9x - y = 26

9x = 26 + y

Substitute 9x = 26 + y in equation (II)

26 + y + y = 28               {add like terms}

26 + 2y = 28             {subtract 26 from both sides}

         2y = 28 - 26

        2y = 2    {divide both sides by 2}

           y = 2/2

y = 1

Substitute y =1 in equation (I)

9x - 1 = 26

9x = 26 + 1

9x = 27

x = 27/9

x = 3

x = 3

y = 1
