Answer:

5 people trust none of the candidates

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

n = 100 people

34 people trust candidate A

44 people trust candidate B

48 people trust candidate C

7 people trust candidates both A and B

12 people trust candidates both A and C

17 people trust candidates both B and C

5 people trust candidates all three A and B and C

Number of people that trust only A and B = 7 - 5 = 2

Number of people that trust only A and C = 12 - 5 = 7

Number of people that trust only B and C = 17 - 5 = 12

Number of people that trust only A = 34 - 7 - 5 - 2 = 20

Number of people that trust only B = 44 - 12 - 5 - 2 = 25

Number of people that trust only C = 48 - 7 - 5 - 2 = 24

Number of people that trust at least one candidate

= 20 + 24 + 25 + 7 + 2 + 12 + 5

= 95

The number of people that trust none of the candidates will be:

100 - (20+24+25+7+2+12+5)

= 100 - 95

= 5

5 people trust none of the candidates.

Answer:

5 people trust none of the candidates

Step-by-step explanation:

To know how many people surveyed trust none of the candidates we need to find:

  • People that trust all three candidates: 5
  • People that just trust candidate B and C: This is equal to people that trust candidate B and C less people that trust all three candidates. So it is equal to: 17 - 5 = 12
  • People that just trust candidate A and C: This is equal to people that trust candidate A and C less people that trust all three candidates. So it is equal to: 12 - 5 = 7
  • People that just trust candidate A and B: This is equal to people that trust candidate A and B less people that trust all three candidates. So it is equal to:  7 - 5 = 2
  • People that just trus candidate C: This is equal to the people that trust candidate C less people that just trust candidate B and C less people that just trust candidate A and C less people that trust all three candidates. So, it is equal to: 48 - 12 - 7 - 5 = 24
  • People that just trus candidate B: This is equal to the people that trust candidate B less people that just trust candidate B and C less people that just trust candidate A and B less people that trust all three candidates. So, it is equal to: 44 - 12 - 2 - 5 = 25
  • People that just trus candidate A: This is equal to the people that trust candidate A less people that just trust candidate A and C less people that just trust candidate A and B less people that trust all three candidates. So, it is equal to: 34 - 7 - 2 - 5 = 20

Therefore, we can calculate how many people surveyed trust at least one candidate by the sum of the previous quantities as:

5 + 12 + 7 + 2 + 24 + 25 + 20 = 95

Finally, there are 100 people surveyed and 95 people trust at least one candidate, so 5 people trust none of the candidates.

The product of -2 and a number minus 6 is greater than -18
Eduardwww [97]
So product means multiplication so -2*(x-6) > -18 so divide by -2 on both sides to get x-6<9 because when you multiply a negative the sign swaps directions and then add 6 to get x<15

n a survey about favorite fruits, 28 people chose apples, 17 chose oranges, and the rest chose pears. If 60 people were surveyed
nordsb [41]

Based on the number of people who chose the other fruits, the percentage of people who chose pears was <u>25%. </u>

<h3>Number of people who chose pears </h3>

= Number of participants - Number who chose apples - Number who chose oranges

= 60 - 28 - 17

= 15 people

<h3>Percentage who chose pears </h3>

= Number of people who chose pears / Total number of people x 100%

= 15 / 60 x 100%

= 25%

In conclusion, 25% chose pears.
