7.2 PRACTICE: Venn Diagrams & the Union Rule

For #1-12, shade the following Venn Diagrams to represent the indicated set.

1. B∩A' 2. A∪B' 3. A'∪B

4. A'∩B' 5. A'∩B∪A 6. (A∩B)∪(A'∩B')

7. ∅' 8. U' 9. (A∩B)∩C

10. (A∩C')∪B 11. A'∩(B∩C) 12. (C∩B')∩A

For #13 & #14, Use the union rule: nA+nB-nA∩B=n(A∪B) to answer the following:

13. nA=5, nB= 12, nA∩B=4 14. nA∩B=5, nA∪B=38, nA=13

What is nA∪B? What is n(B)?

15. John Smith interviewed 140 people in a suburban shopping center to discover some of their cooking habits. He obtained the following results:

58 use microwave ovens

63 use electric ranges

58 use gas ranges

19 use microwave ovens and electric ranges

17 use microwave ovens and gas ranges

4 use both gas and electric ranges

1 uses all three

2 use none of the three

What is wrong with John Smith’s results?

(Hint: Fill in the Venn Diagram. How many people are represented?)

16. Toward the middle of the harvesting season, peaches for canning come in three types: early, late, and extra late, depending on the expected date of ripening. During a certain week, the following data were recorded at a fruit delivery station:

34 trucks went out carrying early peaches

61 carried late peaches

50 carried extra late

25 carried early and late

30 carried late and extra late

8 carried early and extra late

6 carried all three

9 carried only figs (no peaches at all)

a) How many trucks carried ONLY late variety peaches?

b) How many carried ONLY extra late variety peaches?

c) How many total trucks (IN ALL) went out during the week?

17. After a genetics experiment on 50 pea plants, the number of plants having certain characteristics was tallied, with the following results.

22 were tall

25 had green peas

39 had smooth peas

9 were tall and had green peas

20 had green peas and smooth peas

6 had all three characteristics

4 had none of the characteristics

a) How many plants were tall with smooth peas? (Hint: Use the union rule)

b) How many plants were tall with smooth peas but NOT green peas?

c) How many plants were only tall (without smooth or green peas)?

18. A recent survey of 150 math professors revealed the following:

111 invested in stocks

98 invested in bonds

100 invested in certificates of deposit (CD’s)

80 invested in stocks and bonds

83 invested in bonds and certificates of deposit

85 invested in stocks and certificates of deposit

9 did not invest in any of three

How many professors invested in all three?
