Add them all up and you'll get your answer, there are 33 total colleagues in the group.

We're assuming e.g. the two that won't go to P (park) or C (cottage) includes the one that won't go anywhere.

Let's call the three rings of the Venn diagram P,B,C.
 
We'll label the eight regions like PB\bar{C}, here meaning in P, in B, not in C.


1 would not go to a park or a beach or a​ cottage

\bar{P}\bar{B}\bar{C} = 1

8 would go to neither a park nor a​ beach.  We have to take away the one guy who won't go anywhere to find out how many go just to college.

8 = \bar{P}\bar{B}\bar{C} + \bar{P}\bar{B}C 

\bar{P}\bar{B}C=8-1=7 

3 would go to neither a beach nor a​ cottage,

P\bar{B}\bar{C}=3-1=2 

<span>2 would go to neither a park nor a​ cottage, 
</span>
\bar{P}B\bar{C} = 2-1=1 

<span>17 would not go to a​ park

</span>17 = \bar{P}\bar{B}\bar{C} + \bar{P}\bar{B}{C} + \bar{P}{B}\bar{C} + \bar{P}{B}{C}= 1 + 7 + 1 + \bar{P}{B}{C}

\bar{P}{B}{C}=8

<span>24 would not go to a​ beach

</span>{P}\bar{B}{C}=24 - 1 - 7 - 2 = 14

13 would not go to a​ cottage
 
{P}B\bar{C}=13 - 1 -2 - 1= 9

8 were willing to go all three places.

{P}BC= 8

Adding them all up,

8 + 9+ 14+ 8 + 1 + 2 + 7 + 1 = 50

Answer:

the corresponding sides and angles would be a pair of matching angles or sides that are in the same spot in two different shapes.

Step-by-step explanation:

So look at triangle AWXV and check each side....does side AW correspond with other triangle AX - meaning they are the same?

Repeat to find the same angle in each triangle that matches.

Solve the system of equations by substitution
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

(x, y) = (1, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

given the 2 equations

x + y = 4 → (1)

y = 3x → (2)

Substitute y = 3x into (1)

x + 3x = 4

4x = 4 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 1

Substitute x = 1 into (2) for corresponding value of y

y = 3 × 1 = 3

solution is (1, 3 )
