1 answer:

4 0

4x-1=-2(x+1)
Distribute
4x-1=-2x-2
Move variable to left and change signs
4x+2x=-2+1
Combine like terms
6x=-1
Divide both sides by 6
X=-1/6

In the Itty Bitty High School, there are 85 students. There are 27 students who take French, 51 who take Geometry and 38 who tak

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

58 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Total = 85$

$French = 27$

$Geometry = 51$

$History = 38$

$None = 5$

$All = 2$

Required

Students that take only 1 subjects

The attached image illustrates the question.

For French only (x), we have:

$x + 7 -2+10-2+2=27$

$x + 15=27$

Collect like terms

$x =- 15+27$

$x =12$

For Geometry only (y), we have:

$y+10-2+15-2+2=51$

$y+23=51$

Collect like terms

$y=-23+51$

$y=28$

For History only (z), we have:

$z +15-2+7-2+2=38$

$z +20=38$

Collect like terms

$z =-20+38$

$z =18$

Students with one subject is then calculated as:

$1\ subject = x+y+z$

$1\ subject = 12 + 28 + 18$

$1\ subject = 58$
