Answer:
The number of houses that receive Times only is 14
Step-by-step explanation:
As shown in the diagram, let:
U=[the total number of houses]
[tex] \implies n(U)=40[/tex]
G =[the houses that receive Graphic]
[tex] \implies n(G)=26[/tex]
T=[the houses that receive Times]
[tex] \implies n(T)=24[/tex]
x=[the houses that receive both Graphic and Times]
Let solve for x
From the diagram we can write,
n(U)=n(G)-x+x+n(T)-x
This implies that,
40=26-x+x+24-x
40=50-x
x=50-40
x=10
Also, from the diagram the region that denotes Times only is 24-x
Substituting the value for x, we obtain
24-10=14
