Circle A is set A, and circle B is set B. Which is your favorite? Ice cream, Cake, both, or neither? Circle A is Ice Cream with 6votes, Circle B is Cake with 1 Vote. Find A union B and explain what that number represents.
@goformit100 can u answer this?
is there any numeric data given here for this particular question ?
Well I just had to do survey a total of 12 people including myself whether they like ice cream, cake , both or neither .. the number of people is in the picture i posted.
ok I can help you now :)
Do you know what A union B actually mean ?
A union B means No. of elements of A and No. of elements of B
So it would be 6,1 ? just those two numbers?
so here A U B represents all the numbers from Set A and Set B.
Which is 6,1 ?
No it will not be 6,2 it will be 6+4+1 it is because Union means total number of elements of the given sets.
Oh so to answer it I'd have to say 6,4,1 ? or 11 ?
yes now you got it correct.
Which one 6,4,1 or 11?
or it doesn't matter?
Union will always will be 11 not in by using commas
so i write (11) as answer?
and now I have to find a intersection b?
for intersection you must know it means that you choose those number which are common in the given sets.
Now Madam please tell what answer you got this time.
how about the 1 ? which is the number outside of the two circles?
no it is|dw:1367907205335:dw|
none are alike unless i include the 1 outside of the set then the common # would be 1
So if none of the numbers are like what would i put as my answer? that theres nothing?
common within the two sets, not leaving the two sets.
no numbers are common is 6,4,1??
its*
see in your view what are the given sets ?
what do u mean?
Set A {6} Set B{1}
Or would it be Set A {6,4} Set B {1,4} ? since 4 represents both?
dont put commas in calculating the problems related to Venn Diagram. you have to add them up. Ok let me explain you.
in the posted figure by you Set A is the set consisting the totally 10 elements in number i.e., 6+4 Set B is the set consisting the totally 10 elements in number i.e., ^+4 and the 1 outside is the one from the universal set
