Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is actually 125

Answer 2

Answer:

The sets has more than 150 students

P∪A∪M

-(P∩A)

Step-by-step explanation:

See the attached figure which represents Venn diagram for the question:

180 take PE

80 take art

72 take music

33 take PE and art

28 take PE and music

20 take all three

M= all students taking music

A= all students taking art

P= all students taking PE

Number of students taking PE and art only = 33 - 20 = 13

Number of students taking PE and music only = 28 - 20 = 8

Number of students taking PE only = 180 - (20 + 13 + 8) = 139

Number of students taking ARt only = 80 - (20 + 13) = 47

Number of students taking Music only = 72 - (20 + 8) = 44

Number of students doesn't take any thing =

300 - (20 + 13 + 8 + 139 + 47 + 44) = 29

We will check the options to find the sets has more than 150 students:

1)  A∪M = 13 + 47 + 20 + 8 + 44 = 132 < 150

2) P∩M = 20 + 8 = 28 < 150

3) P∩A∩M = 20 < 150

4) P∪A∪M = 20 + 13 + 8 + 139 + 47 + 44 = 271 > 150

5) -(P∩A) = 300 - (13+20) = 267 > 150

So, The sets has more than 150 students

P∪A∪M

-(P∩A)
