This can be solved using formula for Venn Diagrams:

Total = n(A)+ n(B) - n(both A and B) + n(neither A nor B)

Where, the n in front indicates number of items <u><em>[ n(A) is number of elements in set A ]</em></u>

We can take:

  • set A as students taking Ethics
  • set B as students taking Metaphysics

Given:

Tota = 15,000

n(A) = 2200

n(both A and B) = 1700

n(neither A nor B) = 9500

Substituting these into our formula, we get:

15,000=2200+n(B)-1700+9500\\15,000=n(B)+10,000\\n(B)=15,000-10,000\\n(B)=5000

Hence, 5000 students are taking metaphysics this term.

<u><em>*** If we want to know students taking </em></u><u><em>metaphysics ONLY</em></u><u><em>, we can subtract n(both A and B) from 5000. So we have 5000-1700=3300 ***</em></u>


ANSWER:

Total students taking Metaphysics = 5000

Students taking Metaphysics only = 3300

Switch 2 units to 5 units.

Explanation:

If Figure G was a reflection over the x-axis (which it is), then the bottom right angle would be at 4 on the y axis. In order for it to get to -1, you would need to move Figure G down 5 units. I hope this helps!
