PROBLEM

Use the given information to determine the number of elements in each of the four disjoint subsets in the following Venn diagram.
n(A)=30n(B)=50n(AB)=70n(U)=200\begin{array}{l} n(A)=30 \\ n(B)=50 \\ n(A \cup B)=70 \\ n(U)=200 \end{array} a. n(AB)=n\left(A \cap B^{\prime}\right)= \square

STEP 1

1. n(A) n(A) represents the number of elements in set A A .
2. n(B) n(B) represents the number of elements in set B B .
3. n(AB) n(A \cup B) represents the number of elements in the union of sets A A and B B .
4. n(U) n(U) represents the total number of elements in the universal set U U .
5. n(AB) n\left(A \cap B^{\prime}\right) represents the number of elements in set A A that are not in set B B .

STEP 2

1. Use the principle of inclusion-exclusion to find n(AB) n(A \cap B) .
2. Calculate n(AB) n\left(A \cap B^{\prime}\right) .

STEP 3

Use the principle of inclusion-exclusion to find n(AB) n(A \cap B) :
n(AB)=n(A)+n(B)n(AB) n(A \cup B) = n(A) + n(B) - n(A \cap B) Substitute the given values:
70=30+50n(AB) 70 = 30 + 50 - n(A \cap B) Solve for n(AB) n(A \cap B) :
70=80n(AB) 70 = 80 - n(A \cap B) n(AB)=8070 n(A \cap B) = 80 - 70 n(AB)=10 n(A \cap B) = 10

SOLUTION

Calculate n(AB) n\left(A \cap B^{\prime}\right) :
n(AB)=n(A)n(AB) n\left(A \cap B^{\prime}\right) = n(A) - n(A \cap B) Substitute the known values:
n(AB)=3010 n\left(A \cap B^{\prime}\right) = 30 - 10 n(AB)=20 n\left(A \cap B^{\prime}\right) = 20 The number of elements in AB A \cap B^{\prime} is:
20 \boxed{20}
