Answer:
N(AUC∩B') = 121
The number of students that like Reese's Peanut Butter Cups or Snickers, but not Twix is 121
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A represent snickers, B represent Twix and C represent Reese's Peanut Butter Cups.
Given;
N(A) = 150
N(B) = 204
N(C) = 206
N(A∩B) = 75
N(A∩C) = 100
N(B∩C) = 98
N(A∩B∩C) = 38
N(Total) = 500
How many students like Reese's Peanut Butter Cups or Snickers, but not Twix;
N(AUC∩B')
This can be derived by first finding;
N(AUC) = N(A) + N(C) - N(A∩C)
N(AUC) = 150+206-100 = 256
Also,
N(A∩B U B∩C) = N(A∩B) + N(B∩C) - N(A∩B∩C) = 75 + 98 - 38 = 135
N(AUC∩B') = N(AUC) - N(A∩B U B∩C) = 256-135 = 121
N(AUC∩B') = 121
The number of students that like Reese's Peanut Butter Cups or Snickers, but not Twix is 121

Answer:
A construction worker may use trigonometry when building the roof of a house. They may have to calculate the right angle that hypotenuse must sit at so water doesn't build up on the roof and cause leaks.
(this may be more of an architect's job, as they are the ones that design the houses)
or
An air traffic controller may use trigonometry to find how long it will take an airplane to land/how far the airplane is from the ground while it is in the sky (hypotenuse), based on its height from the ground (opposite) and the distance away from the runway it is (adjacent). They can also calculate the angle of elevation of the airplane from the tower they work in.
What you're seeing here is 12 being multiplied by its reciprocal. 12 * 1/12 = 1. This is an example of a multiplicative inverse; a multiplicative inverse is when you multiply a number by its reciprocal (1 over the number).
