Rule that states that every function can be described in four ways: algebraically (a formula),
numerically (a table), graphically, or in words.
The correct answer is: Rule of four

people like apples and carrots. Also, four people are such that they like bananas and carrots.

 How many people like apples only? 

 How many people like only one of the three?    


The correct answer is:
Let A, B and C represent people who like apples, bananas, and carrots respectively. The number
of people in A = 10, B = 12 and C = 16. Three people are such that they enjoy apples, bananas as
well as carrots. Two of them like apples and bananas. Let three people like apples and carrots.
Also, four people are such that they like bananas and carrots.
 How many people like apples only? [2]

The ________________________ states that if event A can occur in m ways, and event B can occur
in n disjoint ways, then the event “A or B” can occur in m + n ways.
The correct answer is: Additive principle
    Find f (1).
The correct answer is: 4

For a function f : N → N, a Answer definition consists of an Answer   together with


a Answer . 
The correct answer is:
For a function f : N → N, a [recursive] definition consists of an [initial condition]  together
with a [recurrence relation] .

Additive principle states that if given two sets A and B, we have |A × B| |A| · |B|.
The correct answer is 'False'.
