13
n (T ∪ C) = 210
n (T – C) = n (T) – n (T ∩ C)
65 = 100 – n (T ∩ C)
n (T ∩ C) = 35

14. In a class of 25 students, 12 have taken mathematics, 8 have taken mathematics but
not biology. Find the no. of students who have taken both mathematics and biology and
the no. of those who have taken biology but not mathematics each student has taken
either mathematics or biology or both.
15
x (ii) n (A ∪ B)
= 14 + x + x
= 14 + 2x
N (B) = n (B – A) + n (A ∩ B)
= 3x + x
= 4x
14 + 2x = 4x
x=7
(ii) n (A ∪ B) = n (A – B) + n (B – A) + n (A ∩ B)
= 14 + x+ 3x + x
= 14 + 5x = 14 + 5 7 = 49
16. If A and B are two sets such that A ∪ B= A ∩ B, then prove that A = B
Since A ∪ B = A ∩ B
a ϵ A ∩ B . So a ϵ B
Therefore A B
Similarly if b ϵ B,
Then b ϵ A ∪ B. Since
A ∪ B = A ∩ B, b ϵ A ∩ B
16
So b ϵ A
Therefore, B A
Thus A=B
Ans. C – B = A
= (A ∪ B) ∩
= ∩ (A ∪ B)
=( ∩ A) ∪ ( ∩ B)
=( ∩ A) ∪
= ∩A
=A∩
=A–B

like tennis only and not cricket? How many like tennis?
n ( C ∪ T) = 56, n (C) = 40
n (C ∩ T) = 10
17
n (C ∪ T) = n (C) + n (T) – n (C ∩T)
65 = 40 + n (T) – 10
n (T) = 35
Now,
Ans. Let b ϵ B
20. If ∪ = {a, e, i. o. u}
A = {a, e, i}
And B = {e, o, u}
C = {a, i, u}
18
Then verify that A ∩ (B – C) = (A ∩ B) – (A ∩ C)
Ans. B – C = {e, o}
A ∩ (B – C) = e
A ∩ B = {e}
A ∩ C = {a}
(A ∩ B) – (A ∩ C) = e
