Question 2

{students running cross country},  {students swimming}, and  {students running track}.
Draw a Venn diagram of  , and write a sentence describing what the set represents.

Accepted Answer

A represents the set of students who participate in all three activities: running cross country, swimming, and running track. A represents the set of students who participate in all three activities (cross country, swimming, and track). The Venn diagram would have three overlapping circles with A in the center. B, C, and D do not accurately represent the intersection of these three sets.

Question 8

In a survey of 29 instructors, it was found that 22 liked whiteboards, 11 liked blackboards, and 7
Liked both. How many instructors did not like whiteboards?

Accepted Answer

We know that 22 instructors liked whiteboards and 7 instructors liked both whiteboards and blackboards. Therefore, the number of instructors who liked only whiteboards is 22-7=15. Since there were a total of 29 instructors surveyed, the remaining instructors who did not like whiteboards can be found by subtracting the total number of instructors who liked whiteboards (including those who liked both) from 29: 29-(22+7)=29-29=0. Therefore, the number of instructors who did not like whiteboards is 0, making choice B the best answer. We know that 22 instructors liked whiteboards and 7 liked both whiteboards and blackboards. This means that 22-7=15 instructors only liked whiteboards. Therefore, the number of instructors who did not like whiteboards is 29-15=14. Choice B (7) is incorrect because that is the number of instructors who liked blackboards, not the number who did not like whiteboards. Choices C (3) and D (4) are also incorrect because they do not correspond to any logical calculation based on the information given.

Question 9

The table shows the students from Genius High School with the four highest GPAs from 2005 to
2007. Write the region(s)of the Venn diagram that would include Harry. (Note set  represents
2005 top-ranked students, set  represents 2006 top-ranked students, and set  represents 2007
Top-ranked students.)

Accepted Answer

Harry appears in set 11ebb939_4a5e_996d_9e6c_f5909f9e9830_TB8446_11, which represents the top-ranked students in 2007. This set overlaps with set 11ebb939_4a5e_996f_9e6c_a74321764e7d_TB8446_00, which represents the four highest GPAs overall. The only region that overlaps with both of these sets is Region V. Therefore, Region V is the best choice for including Harry.

Question 10

One weekend, there were 61 pizzas ordered for the sophomore dorm. That weekend 12 customers
Ordered their pizza with just pepperoni, 18 customers ordered their pizza with just sausage, 13
Ordered theirs with just onions, 6 ordered theirs with pepperoni and sausage, 5 ordered theirs with
Sausage and onions, 4 ordered theirs with pepperoni and onions, and 2 ordered theirs with all three
Items. The remaining pizzas were cheese pizzas with no toppings. How many customers ordered at
Most two toppings on their pizza?

Accepted Answer

To find the number of customers who ordered at most two toppings, we add those who ordered pizzas with just one topping and those who ordered pizzas with exactly two toppings. This gives us 12 (pepperoni only) + 18 (sausage only) + 13 (onions only) + 6 (pepperoni and sausage) + 5 (sausage and onions) + 4 (pepperoni and onions) = 58. However, we must also consider the 2 orders with all three toppings, as they technically include scenarios of at most two toppings as well. Therefore, the total is 58 + 2 = 60. The question seems to have a slight discrepancy in its formulation or choices, as the calculation suggests 60, but the closest option provided is 59, which we choose by process of elimination and considering the intent of the question.

Question 11

Upon examining the contents of 38 backpacks, it was found that 23 contained a black pen, 27
Contained a blue pen, and 21 contained a pencil, 15 contained both a black pen and a blue pen, 12
Contained both a black pen and a pencil, 18 contained both a blue pen and a pencil, and 10 contained
All three items. How many backpacks contained none of the three writing instruments?

Accepted Answer

2To find the number of backpacks that contained none of the three writing instruments, we use the principle of inclusion-exclusion. First, we add the total number of backpacks that contained each item: 23 (black pen) + 27 (blue pen) + 21 (pencil) = 71. Then, we subtract the backpacks that were counted twice because they contained two items: 71 - 15 (black and blue pen) - 12 (black pen and pencil) - 18 (blue pen and pencil) = 26. However, the 10 backpacks that contained all three items were subtracted three times, so we need to add them back once to correct this: 26 + 10 = 36. Since there were 38 backpacks in total, the number of backpacks that contained none of the three writing instruments is 38 - 36 = 2.

Question 13

Upon examining the contents of 38 backpacks, it was found that 23 contained a black pen, 27
Contained a blue pen, and 21 contained a pencil, 15 contained both a black pen and a blue pen, 12
Contained both a black pen and a pencil, 18 contained both a blue pen and a pencil, and 10 contained
All three items. How many backpacks contained exactly one of the three writing instruments?

Accepted Answer

Using the principle of inclusion-exclusion, we can find that there are 38 - 10 = 28 backpacks that contain at least one of the items. We can then find the number of backpacks that contain exactly one item by subtracting the number of backpacks that contain two or three items from this total.

Number of backpacks that contain two or three items = 15 (from the given information) + (23 - 15) + (27 - 15) + (21 - 10 - 15 - 12 - 18) = 3

Number of backpacks that contain exactly one item = 28 - 3 = 25

So the best choice is B with the explanation above. To find the number of backpacks containing exactly one writing instrument, we need to subtract the number of backpacks containing two or three writing instruments from the total number of backpacks (38).

Backpacks containing both a black pen and a blue pen: 15 
Backpacks containing both a black pen and a pencil: 12 
Backpacks containing both a blue pen and a pencil: 18

To find the total number of backpacks containing two or three writing instruments, we add these three numbers and subtract the backpacks containing all three items (counted twice in the previous step):

15 + 12 + 18 - 10 = 35

Therefore, the number of backpacks containing exactly one writing instrument is:

38 - 35 = 3

So, the best choice is option B, 11 backpacks.

Question 15

In a group of 53 children, 22 had a dog, 18 had a cat, and 6 had both a dog and a cat. How many
Children had neither a dog nor a cat as a pet?

Accepted Answer

To find the number of children who had neither a dog nor a cat, we first find the total number of children who had either a dog, a cat, or both. We use the principle of inclusion-exclusion: add the number of dog owners (22) to the number of cat owners (18) and subtract the number of children who own both (6) to avoid double counting. This gives us 22 + 18 - 6 = 34 children who have at least one of the pets. Subtracting this from the total number of children (53) gives us 53 - 34 = 19 children who had neither a dog nor a cat.

Accepted Answer

There is no way to determine the contents of the two sets based solely on the given alphanumeric strings. Without any context or information about the two sets, it is impossible to determine if they are equal or not. Therefore, the safest answer is A) not equal.

Question 18

One weekend, there were 98 pizzas ordered for the sophomore dorm. That weekend 19 customers
Ordered their pizza with just pepperoni, 16 customers ordered their pizza with just sausage, 20
Ordered theirs with just onions, 15 ordered theirs with pepperoni and sausage, 9 ordered theirs with
Sausage and onions, 17 ordered theirs with pepperoni and onions, and 2 ordered theirs with all three
Items. How many customers ordered their pizza with pepperoni or sausage (or both)?

Accepted Answer

To find the number of customers who ordered their pizza with pepperoni or sausage (or both), we add the numbers of customers who ordered pizzas with just pepperoni (19), just sausage (16), both pepperoni and sausage (15), both sausage and onions (9, since some of these will also include those who ordered with pepperoni), both pepperoni and onions (17, since some of these will also include those who ordered with sausage), and all three items (2). However, we must be careful not to double-count the customers who ordered pizzas with both toppings or all three. The correct calculation is: 19 (pepperoni only) + 16 (sausage only) + 15 (pepperoni and sausage) + 2 (all three), since the ones who ordered with both pepperoni and onions or sausage and onions are already included in other categories. This gives us 19 + 16 + 15 + 2 = 52. However, the correct approach to avoid double counting is to first sum all unique combinations and then subtract the overlaps correctly. The initial addition includes overlaps, so the correct method involves using the principle of inclusion-exclusion. The correct total for pepperoni or sausage or both (without double counting) actually involves adding the single ingredient orders (19 + 16), the combinations without considering the all three together since it's counted in the individual combinations, and then correctly accounting for all overlaps, which was not accurately reflected in the initial explanation. The accurate count involves considering all who ordered pepperoni in any combination and all who ordered sausage in any combination, then adding those who ordered both to ensure they are not double-counted. The calculation simplifies to counting each group once: pepperoni only, sausage only, and any combination thereof, including those with onions. The accurate total is derived from understanding that anyone who ordered pepperoni or sausage in any combination should be counted once, leading to the sum of unique orders involving these ingredients.

Question 19

The set represented by choice C is the intersection of A and 11ebb939_4a5d_d601_9e6c_978b9418667e_TB8446_11, meaning it represents the people who both drive a compact car and a diesel vehicle.

Question 20

In a survey of 18 college students, it was found that 11 were taking an English class, 6 were taking a
Math class, and 4 were taking both English and math. How many students were taking a math class
Only?

Accepted Answer

Out of the 18 students, 4 were taking both English and math, so we can subtract these from the total number taking English (11) to get 7 students taking only English. Similarly, we can subtract the 4 taking both from the total number taking math (6) to get 2 students taking only math. Therefore, the answer is 2. To find the number of students taking only math, we need to subtract the number of students taking both English and math from the total number of students taking math. 
Total number of students taking math = 6 
Number of students taking both English and math = 4 
Number of students taking only math = Total number of students taking math - Number of students taking both English and math 
Number of students taking only math = 6 - 4 = 2
