For problems 7-12, consider the sets below, and indicate if each statement is true or false.

$A$ = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} $B$ = {1, 3, 5} $C$ = {4, 6} $U$ = {numbers from 0 to 10}

14. $A ⋃ C$

15. $A ⋂ C$

16. $B ⋂ C$

17. $A^c$

18. $B^c$

Let D = {b, a, c, k}, E = {t, a, s, k}, F = {b, a, t, h}. Using these sets, find the following:

19. $D^c ⋂ E$

20. $F^c ⋂ D$

21. $(D ⋂ E) ⋃ F$

22. $D ⋂ (E ⋃ F)$

23. $(F ⋂ E)^c ⋂ D$

Let A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} B = {1, 3, 5} C = {4, 6}. Find the cardinality of the given set.

33. $\text{n}(A)$

34. $\text{n}(B)$

35. $\text{n}(A ⋃ C)$

36. $\text{n}(A ⋂ C)$

The Venn diagram here shows the cardinality of each set. Use this in 37-40 to find the cardinality of the given set.

62 only use Redbox
24 only use a video store
16 use only a video store and Redbox
48 use only Netflix and Redbox
30 use only a video store and Netflix
10 use all three
25 use none of these

44. A survey asked buyers whether color, size, or brand influenced their choice of cell phone. The results are below. How many people were influenced by brand?

5 only said color
8 only said size
16 only said brand
20 said only color and size
42 said only color and brand
53 said only size and brand
102 said all three
20 said none of these

45. Use the given information to complete a Venn diagram, then determine: a) how many students have seen exactly one of these movies, and b) how many had seen only Star Wars.

18 had seen The Matrix (M)
24 had seen Star Wars (SW)
20 had seen Lord of the Rings (LotR)
10 had seen M and SW
14 had seen LotR and SW
12 had seen M and LotR
6 had seen all three

46. A survey asked people what alternative transportation modes they use. Using the data to complete a Venn diagram, then determine: a) what percent of people only ride the bus, and b) how many people don’t use any alternate transportation.

30% use the bus
