The answer would be 23i.
Simplify ( 26 + 16i - 26 + 7i )
Gather like terms ( 26 - 26 ) + (16i + 7i)
Simplify (23i)
1st: 2x-3 2nd: 2x-1 3rd: 2x+1 4th: 2x+3
adding the above you get 8x=184
Since 8 students take both, that leaves only 4 students who take Algebra I alone.
Likewise since 8 students take both, that leaves 10 who only take Algebra 2
So out of the 60, twenty two are taking either Alg I Alg Ii or both.
That leaves 38 people who are not taking either.
b. 38
You can set this up using a 2 circle venn diagram. Just be sure to put the 8 who take both in first.
Look for the one with Parallel diagonals
