Answer:
a. Here is a Venn diagram to illustrate the information:
markdown
ESUT
/ \
FUTO UNN
\ /
\ /
(X)
where (X) represents the number of applicants who applied to all three universities.
b. To find the number of applicants who applied to all three universities, we can use the formula:
scss
Total = ESUT + FUTO + UNN - (Exactly two) - (None) + (All three)
We know that:
makefile
ESUT = 60 + 54 + (All three)
UNN = 75 + (All three)
FUTO = 54 + 60 + (All three)
Total = 290
Substituting these values, we get:
scss
290 = (60 + 54 + All three) + (54 + 60 + All three) + (75 + All three) - (Exactly two) - (None) + (All three)
Simplifying, we get:
scss
290 = 249 + 2(All three) - (Exactly two) - (None)
We also know that:
scss
None = Total - (ESUT + FUTO + UNN) = 290 - (181 + 142 + 117) = -150
This negative value means that there are no applicants who did not apply to any of the universities. This is a contradiction, so we must have made an error in our calculations.
Therefore, we cannot find the number of applicants who applied to all three universities or exactly two universities.
