-1 = z/3 - 7
Emily's Work:
-1 = z/3 - 7
-1(3)=z/3(3)-7
-3 = z - 7
-3 -7 = z - 7
z = -10
Right away without having to start at the beginning, I see that she has made a mistake at the 4th-5th line of work.
Instead of adding 7 to both sides, she subtracts it and still leaves it in and doesn't fully finish the equation, as it would really be z-7 = -10
In order to solve it, follow these steps:
Rewrite the initial equation as follows:
x/3 - 7 = -1
Multiply both sides by 3
x/3(3)-7(3)=-1(3)
x - 21 = -3
Add 21 to both sides
x = 18

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
35 people did no travel by any of those modes of transportation.
Step-by-step explanation:
Reviewing the groups described, we can see there are 170 that traveled by either <u>plane or train</u> and 50 traveled by bus, but not <u>plane or train</u>.
This means that the 50 people that traveled by bus are not included in the group of 170 that used either plane or train.
Since those two groups include people that used bus (50 people) and people that used either plane or train (170 people), the union of these two sets include all the people that used at least one of the tree modes of transportation mentioned (bus, plane or train).
The result of the union between these two sets is 50+170=220 people which travel by at least one of those modes of transportation.
Since the total number of surveyed adults is 255, the number of people that did not travel by any of these modes of transportations is 255-220=35 people.
