Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let system security be A, program implementation be B and platform development be C

Then:

25 = A + B + C - AB - BC - AC + ABC

where AB is system security and program implementation,

BC is program implementation and platform development,

AC is system security and platform development and

ABC is all three

So plug in the given numbers to get:

25 = 10 + 13 + 12 - AB - 5 - 4 + 2

25 = 35 - AB - 9 + 2

25 = 35 - AB - 7

AB = 35 - 7 - 25

AB = 3
