Algebra.Com's Answer #777250 by Edwin McCravy(20055)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! A group of 2193 students were surveyed about the courses they were taking at \n" ); document.write( "their college with the following results: \n" ); document.write( "1192 students said they were taking Dance. \n" ); document.write( "1143 students said they were taking English. \n" ); document.write( "1199 students said they were taking Math. \n" ); document.write( "583 students said they were taking Dance and English. \n" ); document.write( "697 students said they were taking English and Math. \n" ); document.write( "646 students said they were taking Dance and Math. \n" ); document.write( "372 students said they were taking all three courses. \n" ); document.write( " \r\n" ); document.write( "372 students said they were taking all three courses. \r\n" ); document.write( "So V=372. We fill that in:\r\n" ); document.write( "\r\n" ); document.write( "646 students said they were taking Dance and Math. \r\n" ); document.write( "So IV+V=646, so substituting V=372, IV=274. We fill that in:\r\n" ); document.write( "\r\n" ); document.write( "697 students said they were taking English and Math. \r\n" ); document.write( "So V+VI=646, so substituting V=372, VI=325.
