22. In a survey of 26 instructors, it was found that 11 liked whiteboards, 18 like blackboards, and 8 liked both. How many instructors like whiteboards only? How many instructors liked blackboards only? How many instructors liked neither?

Respuesta :

Answer:

a) 3

b) 10

c) 5                                

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 26

Instructor that like whiteboards = 11

[tex]n(A) = 11[/tex]

Instructor that like blackboards = 18

[tex]n(B) = 18[/tex]

Instructor that like both boards = 8

[tex]n(A\cap B) = 8[/tex]

We have to find the following:

a)  instructors like whiteboards only

[tex]=n(A) - n(A\cap B)\\=11-8\\=3[/tex]      

b)  instructors liked blackboards only

[tex]=n(B) - n(A\cap B)\\=18-8\\=10[/tex]

c)  instructors liked neither

[tex]=n(A\cup B)'\\=n - n(A\cup B)\\=n - (n(A) + n(B) -n(A\cap B))\\=26-(11+18-8)\\=5[/tex]
