Because the ratio of yellow to blue can be expressed as 5/3, you would solve the equation 5/3= 2/x. To solve, you would get x alone by cross multiplying and getting 5x=6. Divide both sides by 5 and get 6/5 or 1 and 1/5 cans of blue paint

in a certain class, 22 pupils take one or more of chemistry, economic, government. 12 take economic (E), 8 take government (G) a
mash [69]

Answer:

ai) n(E⋂C) = ∅ = null

n(E⋂G) = 4

aii) see attachment

bi) n(C⋂G) = x = 1

bii) n(G) only = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let chemistry = C

Economic = E

Government = G

n(E) = 12

n(G) = 8

n(C) = 7

ai) number of pupils for economics and chemistry = 0

number of pupils for economics and government = 4

The set notation for both:

n(E⋂C) = ∅ = null

n(E⋂G) = 4

aii) find attached the Venn diagram

bi) n(C⋂G) = ?

Let number of n(C⋂G) = x

From the Venn diagram

n(C) only = 12-4 = 8

n(G) only = 8-(4+x) = 4-x

n(E) only = 7-x

n(E⋂C⋂G) = 0

n(E⋂C) = 0

n(E⋂G) = 4

Total: 8+ 4-x + 7-x + x + 0+0+4 = 22

23 -x = 22

23-22 = x

x = 1

n(C⋂G) = x = 1

Number of pupils that take both chemistry and government = 1

(bii) government only = n(G) only = 4-x

n(G) only = 4-1 = 3

Number of students that take government only = 3

Paul is going to have the exterior of his home painted. Painting USA charges $75.00 to come out and evaluate the house plus $25.
murzikaleks [220]
CP - the cost of painting the house for Painting USA company [$]
cP = 75 + 25 * 25 = 75 + 625 = 700 [$]
cU - the cost of painting the house for Upscale Home Painting company [$]
cU = 0 + 40 * 25 = 1000 [$]

cP < cU
The most cost effective is Painting USA company.

n - number of houres required to paint the house if the same cost for both companies
75 + 25 * n = 40 * n
40 n - 25n = 75
15n = 75  /:15
n = 5
The cost of paining the house is the same for both companies if the number of houres required to paint the house is 5.
