Of the 400 eighth-graders at pascal middle school, 117 take algebra, 109 take advanced computer, and 114 take industrial technology. furthermore, 70 take both algebra and advanced computer, 34 take both algebra and industrial technology, and 29 take both advanced computer and industrial technology. finally, 164 students take none of these courses. how many students take all three courses

If 164 of the 400 eighth-graders take none of these courses, then 400-164=236 students take some courses.

Let x students take all three courses, then:

1. 70-x take only both algebra and advanced computer,

2. 34-x take only both algebra and industrial technology,

3. 29-x take only both advanced computer and industrial technology.

Now let's count how many student take only one course:

1. 117-(x+34-x+70-x)=13+x take algebra,

2. 109-(x+29-x+70-x)=10+x take advanced computer,

3. 114-(x+29-x+34-x)=51+x take industrial technology.

Now count all students that take some courses:

51+x+10+x+13+x+29-x+34-x+70-x+x=236,

x=236-51-10-13-29-34-70,

x=29.

all three courses take 29 students.

an

y = 6x -3y -12

y +3y +12 = 6x

=> . x = { 2y / 3 +2 } this is equation of line in terms of x

=> . if line meets the x-axis the co-ordinates of meeting point would be ( x , 0 )

=> . x = 2 ( 0 ) / 3 + 2

=> . x = 2

so, the point is ( 2 , 0 )

what is the answer to this
