Math Problem Statement

Fill in the Venn diagram with the appropriate numbers based on the following information: n(A) = 26 n(B) = 30 n(C) = 23 n(A ∩ B) = 10 n(B ∩ C) = 11 n(A ∩ C) = 7 n(A ∩ B ∩ C) = 4 n(U) = 64 Determine how many elements are in each region of the Venn diagram, and calculate the number of elements in Region II.

Solution

Let's break down the information and solve the problem.

We have a Venn diagram involving three sets AA, BB, and CC along with their cardinalities (number of elements). The following data is provided:

  • n(A)=26n(A) = 26
  • n(B)=30n(B) = 30
  • n(C)=23n(C) = 23
  • n(AB)=10n(A \cap B) = 10
  • n(BC)=11n(B \cap C) = 11
  • n(AC)=7n(A \cap C) = 7
  • n(ABC)=4n(A \cap B \cap C) = 4
  • n(U)=64n(U) = 64 (The total number of elements in the universal set UU)

Labeling the regions

The Venn diagram regions are labeled as follows:

  • I: Outside of all sets
  • II: Only in AA
  • III: Only in CC
  • IV: Only in BB
  • V: In all three sets (ABCA \cap B \cap C)
  • VI: In AA and BB, but not CC
  • VII: In AA and CC, but not BB
  • VIII: In BB and CC, but not AA

Using the data to fill in the regions:

  • n(ABC)=4n(A \cap B \cap C) = 4 corresponds to region V.
  • n(AB)=10n(A \cap B) = 10, so region VI has 104=610 - 4 = 6 elements (since 4 elements are already in region V).
  • n(BC)=11n(B \cap C) = 11, so region VIII has 114=711 - 4 = 7 elements.
  • n(AC)=7n(A \cap C) = 7, so region VII has 74=37 - 4 = 3 elements.

Now we calculate the remaining elements in sets AA, BB, and CC:

  • n(A)=26n(A) = 26, so region II has 26(6+4+3)=1326 - (6 + 4 + 3) = 13 elements.
  • n(B)=30n(B) = 30, so region IV has 30(6+4+7)=1330 - (6 + 4 + 7) = 13 elements.
  • n(C)=23n(C) = 23, so region III has 23(3+4+7)=923 - (3 + 4 + 7) = 9 elements.

Finally, we calculate the number of elements in region I (outside all sets):

  • n(U)=64n(U) = 64, so region I has 64(13+6+3+13+9+7+4)=964 - (13 + 6 + 3 + 13 + 9 + 7 + 4) = 9 elements.

Solution for Region II:

  • Region II contains 13 elements.

Would you like a breakdown of any specific parts, or do you have additional questions?

Here are some related questions for practice:

  1. What is the number of elements in regions VII and VIII combined?
  2. How many elements are present in BCB \cup C?
  3. What is the number of elements in the set (ABC)c(A \cup B \cup C)^c (outside all sets)?
  4. How would the numbers change if n(ABC)n(A \cap B \cap C) increased to 5?
  5. How many elements are only in ACA \cup C, but not in BB?

Tip: In Venn diagrams with three sets, breaking the diagram into distinct regions based on the given intersections simplifies the process of filling in values.
