Q2 of 145 Page 43

If P and Q are two sets such that n(P ∪ Q) = 75, n (P ∩ Q) = 17 and n(P) = 49, find n (Q).

Given:


n(P) = 49


n(P ∪ Q) = 75


n(P ∩ Q) = 17


To Find: n(Q)


We know that,


|A ∪ B| = |A| + |B| - |A ∩ B| (where A and B are two finite sets)


Therefore,


n(P ∪ Q) = n(P) + n(Q) – n(P ∩ Q)


75 = 49 + n(Q) - 17


n(Q) = 75 – 49 + 17 = 43


Therefore,


n(Q) = 43
