Answer:

C. 40%

Step-by-step explanation:

Using set notations,

Check the attachment for the diagram.

Let the total fund shared by the town be 100% which will be our universal set.

Let X be proportion of households that own mutual funds but not individual

From the venn diagram,  

The total number of people that owned mutual fund M = (proportion of  households that owned both mutual fund and individual stock) +  (proportion of households that own mutual funds but not individual stocks)

If X is the proportion of households that own mutual funds but not individual stocks

The total number of people that owned mutual fund = (proportion of  households that owned both mutual fund and individual stock) +  X

X = (the total number of people that owned mutual fund)- (proportion of  households that owned both mutual fund and individual stock)

X = 60% - 20%

X = 40%

ivanzaharov [21]
The distance: use absolute value

The distance between x and 8: | x-8 |

“is no more than” means it can be that or be less than that, so use ≤

The distance between x and 8 is no more than 4

| x-8 | ≤ 4

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

Hello,

answer B

2

Step-by-step explanation:

\dfrac{2}{x} -\dfrac{x}{x+5} =\dfrac{10}{x^2+5x} \\\\we\ suppose\ x\neq 0\ and\ x\neq -5\\\\\text{Reducing to the same denominator}\\\dfrac{2(x+5)-x^2}{x(x+5)} =\dfrac{10}{x^2+5x} \\\\Simplify\ by\ x^2+5x\\\\2x+10-x^2=10\\\\-x^2+2x=0\\\\-x(x-2)=0\\\\roots\ are\ 2 \ and\ 0\ (to\ be\ excluded)\\\\Root=2\\
