2400 in prize money...

the first winner will receive 1/3 of the money..
1/3 * 2400 = 2400/3 = 800
leaving 2400 - 800 = 1600

the next 10 winners will receive 1/10 of the remaining amount
1/10 * 1600 = 1600/10 = 160 <== each will receive $ 160

Find the number of elements in A 1 ∪ A 2 ∪ A 3 if there are 200 elements in A 1 , 1000 in A 2 , and 5, 000 in A 3 if (a) A 1 ⊆ A

Answer:

a. 4600

b. 6200

c. 6193

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $n(A)$ the number of elements in A.

Remember, the number of elements in $A_1 \cup A_2 \cup A_3$ satisfies

$n(A_1 \cup A_2 \cup A_3)=n(A_1)+n(A_2)+n(A_3)-n(A_1\cap A_2)-n(A_1\cap A_3)-n(A_2\cap A_3)-n(A_1\cap A_2 \cap A_3)$

Then,

a) If $A_1\subseteq A_2, n(A_1 \cap A_2)=n(A_1)=200$ , and if $A_2\subseteq A_3, n(A_2\cap A_3)=n(A_2)=1000$

Since $A_1\subseteq A_2\; and \; A_2\subseteq A_3, \; then \; A_1\cap A_2 \cap A_3= A_1$

$n(A_1 \cup A_2 \cup A_3)=\\=n(A_1)+n(A_2)+n(A_3)-n(A_1\cap A_2)-n(A_1\cap A_3)-n(A_2\cap A_3)-n(A_1\cap A_2 \cap A_3)=\\=200+1000+5000-200-200-1000-200=4600$
