Answer:

(a)9

(b)I. 0.28125

II. 0.46875

III. 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a total of 32 students, therefore the number of elements in the Universal set, n(U)=32

1$8 play the violin, n(V)=18\\16 play the piano, n(P)=16\\ 7 play neither, n(P \cup V)' =7

(a)The Venn diagram is attached below.

n(U)=n(V)+n(P)-n(V \cap P)+ n(P \cup V)'\\32=18+16+7-n(V \cap P)\\32=41-n(V \cap P)\\n(V \cap P)=41-32\\n(V \cap P)=9\\

Therefore, 9 students play both the violin and  piano.

(b)

I. Probability that the student  plays the violin but not the piano

Number of Students who play violin only =18-x=18-9=9

P(V \cap P') = \dfrac{n(V \cap P')}{n(U)}\\= \dfrac{9}{32}\\=0.28125

ii.Probability that the student does not play the violin

Number of Students who does not play violin only =17-x+7=17-9+7=15

P(does not play violin only)

= \dfrac{15}{32}\\=0.46875

iii.Probability that the student plays the piano but not the violin

Number of Students who play piano only =17-x=17-9=8

P(V' \cap P) = \dfrac{n(V' \cap P)}{n(U)}\\= \dfrac{8}{32}\\\\=0.25
