College Math Special Problem

From the information below create a Venn Diagram labeling the circles for Pizza P, Burgers B and Nuggets N and showing cardinality of each subregion. (Don't forget some people are in the overlap of more than one). Also finish writing in the symbolic notation for the various pieces of information provided as I started to do for the first three.

20 people ate burgers total n(B)
27 people ate Pizza n(P)
21 people ate nuggets n(N)
9 people ate both burgers and nuggets
8 people ate both burgers and pizza
12 people ate both pizza and nuggets
5 people ate pizza, burgers, and nuggets this week
6 people didn't have any of these items

Answer the following:

1. How many people were surveyed?

2. How many people ate Pizza but NOT burgers

3. How many ate Nuggets or Pizza

(Note: "or" is not to say that some that you should include here did not have both, this is what is called an inclusive or. It includes those who meet both descriptions, see page 61, 93-94)

4. How many ate burgers or Nuggets but not pizza

5. In each of the previous 5 questions what was the symbolic noation for the sets you were looking for? You will need to use the letters P, B, N for the sets and then the symbols for union, intersection, and/or complement to answer.

that is y is equal to A (some amount) times b (the base) raised to the k times x power.
a. When A = 30, b = e and k = .05 and x = 0
b. When A = 15,000, b = 1.08, k = 1 and x = 10
c. When A = 120,000 , b = e, k = -.012 and x = 30
d. Find x when A = 3, b = e, k = 2, y = 445.24
e. Find x when A = 180,000 , b = 3 , k = 2 and y = 20,000

2. One very important exponential equation is the compound-interest
formula: found on page 614. It says:

A = P ( 1 + r/n)^(nt)

...where "A" is the ending amount, "P" is the beginning amount (or "principal"), "r" is the interest rate (expressed as a decimal), "n" is the number of compoundings a year, and "t" is the total number of years. The formula calculates the amount (A) owed a person who leaves their money (P) in an account that compounds interest in n times per year, based on a rate of r % Interest per year, for t years of time.

a. Use this formula to calculate the amount of money $10,000 would earn if it were invested at 4.5 percent per year for 8 years in an account that compounded the interest monthly (12 times per year)

b. USe this formula to calculate how long until the investment will have earned a 50% return (that is how long until the investment earns $5000 in interest and is valued at $15,000 total)

c. Use this formula to calulate what interest rate double a person's initial investment in 12 years if the account the account compounded the interest on a monthly basis.

INFORMATION REGARDING STUDY GROUPS AND SERVICE LEARNING

Pick up your study group registration form outside my door. It must be signed and intialed by a full time faculty/staff. Turn that into me before the test and show me your completed study group assignment when I check the homework to get the extra 5pts added to the test. Though one registration form is sufficient for the whole group for end of year credit, Each individual person in the group must turn in their own completed review work to recieve the five points of extra credit on the test.
