Math Problem Statement
Solution
Let's analyze the Venn diagram in the image. The sets , , and represent students who play tennis, basketball, and another sport (possibly soccer), respectively. The different regions represent combinations of students who participate in multiple activities.
The information provided:
- : Tennis players
- : Basketball players
- : Players in the third sport
The diagram shows various numbers in the different overlapping and non-overlapping regions:
- The number of students who play only tennis is 9 (as mentioned).
- The number of students who play basketball is 22 (as mentioned).
- The number of students who are in the intersection of is 11 (as mentioned).
Let’s verify:
Looking at the diagram, the region associated with the intersection of includes:
- The regions where students play both tennis and basketball (2), both tennis and the third sport (3), and all three sports (6).
So, , which matches the given answer.
Would you like to explore these intersections further or focus on other parts of this problem?
Here are 5 related questions you could explore:
- How many students only play basketball?
- How many students play all three sports?
- What is the total number of students represented in the diagram?
- How many students play at least one sport?
- How many students play only one sport?
Tip: When working with Venn diagrams, always ensure that you carefully interpret the overlaps and unique regions for accurate counting.
