Answer

Find out the how many plain hamburgers will Jim and his dad make .

To proof

As given

Jim is helping his dad cook hamburgers for his family and friends.

There are 15 people. Each person wants two hamburgers

Total number of hamburgers = 15× 2

                                                = 30

As given

Three people want hamburgers with cheese.

Each person wants two hamburgers

Total hamburgers with cheese = 2 × 3

                                                   = 6

As given

Two people want hamburgers with mustard.

Each person wants two hamburgers

Total hamburgers with mustard = 2× 2

                                                     = 4

As given

Two people want hamburgers with catsup.

Each person wants two hamburgers

Total  hamburgers with catsup = 2 × 2

                                                     = 4

As given

The rest want them plain.

let us assume that the plane hamburgers be x .

than the equation becomes

x +6 +4 + 4 = 30

x = 30 - 14

x = 16

Therefore the plain hamburgers will Jim and his dad make be 16 .

Option (b) is correct .

Hence proved

the science club has 42 people and the robotics club has 33
