Answer:

110 students

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of students who have only taken calculus is given by the number of students who have taken calculus minus the students who have taken both classes:

$C =100 -50\\C= 50\ students$

The number of students who have only taken discrete mathematics given by the number of students who have taken discrete mathematics minus the students who have taken both classes:

$D =110 -50\\C= 60\ students$

The number of students that have taken a course in either calculus or discrete mathematics is:

$E = C+D = 50+60\\E= 110\ students$

Bess [88]

A system of equations is:
B )
x + y = 375
x = 2 y - 60
We will solve this system:
2 y - 60 + y = 375
3 y = 435
y = 435 : 3
y = 145
x = 375 - 145
x = 230
Allan`s score was 230 and Dave`s score was 145.
