Answer:
Let T and C be the number of students who drink tea and coffee respectively.
Then,
P(T)=
100
60
=0.6
P(C)=
100
50
=0.5
P(T∩C)=
100
30
=0.3
Therefore,
P(T∪C)=P(T)+P(C)−P(T∩C)
P(T∪C)=0.6+0.5−0.3=0.8

Step-by-step explanation:
Let’s solve this using a venn diagram.
T = Tea
C = Coffee
n means number
n(T) = 30
n(C) = 20
Universal = 50
n(T U C)' = 6 , T union C complement (people who like to drink neither)
Let n(T Π C) i.e. T intersection C (People who like to drink both) = x
n(T) + n(C) - n(T Π C) + n(T U C)' = 50
30 + 20 - x + 6 = 50
56 - x = 50
- x = 50 - 56
-x = -6
x = 6
Therefore people who like to drink BOTH Tea and Coffee are 6.
People who drink coffee = 20
Thus, People who ONLY drink coffee = 20 - 6 = 14 people
I hope it's helpful for you ✨ thank you
