Question

Answer 1

$\huge\underline\mathfrak\pink{♡Answer♡}$

Consider C as the set of people who like coffee

T as the set of people who like tea

n(C ∪ T) = 70

n(C) = 37

n(T) = 52

It is given that

n(C ∪ T) = n(C) + n(T) – n(C ∩ T)

Substituting the values

70 = 37 + 52 – n(C ∩ T)

By further calculation

70 = 89 – n(C ∩ T)

So we get

n(C ∩ T) = 89 – 70 = 19

Therefore,

19 people like both coffee and tea.

Answer 2

Answer:

✔Consider C as the set of people who like coffee

✔T as the set of people who like tea

n(C ∪ T) = 70

n(C) = 37

n(T) = 52

It is given that

n(C ∪ T) = n(C) + n(T) – n(C ∩ T)

✔Substituting the values

70 = 37 + 52 – n(C ∩ T)

✔By further calculation

70 = 89 – n(C ∩ T)

So we get

n(C ∩ T) = 89 – 70 = 19

Therefore,

✔19 people like both coffee and tea.
