Answer

A

Step-by-step solution

7 steps

Here are the solutions to the problems.

:

  1. Calculate the number of boys in the village.

    Total youths = 650
    Number of girls = 250
    Number of boys = Total youths - Number of girls

    Number of boys=650−250=400\text{Number of boys} = 650 - 250 = 400
  2. Calculate the total number of youths who do not like music.

    Total youths = 650
    Youths who like music = 425
    Youths who do not like music = Total youths - Youths who like music

    Youths who do not like music=650−425=225\text{Youths who do not like music} = 650 - 425 = 225
  3. Calculate the number of boys who do not like music.

    Youths who do not like music = 225
    Girls who do not like music = 90
    Boys who do not like music = Youths who do not like music - Girls who do not like music

    Boys who do not like music=225−90=135\text{Boys who do not like music} = 225 - 90 = 135

    The correct option is A.
    The number of boys who do not like music is A. 135\boxed{\text{A. } 135}.

    :

  4. Determine the number of boys who play at least one game.

    Total boys = 20
    Boys not allowed to play games = 2
    Boys who play games = Total boys - Boys not allowed to play games

    n(S∪H)=20−2=18n(S \cup H) = 20 - 2 = 18
  5. Use the Principle of Inclusion-Exclusion.

    Let SS be the set of boys who play soccer and HH be the set of boys who play hockey.
    We are given:
    n(S)=16n(S) = 16
    n(H)=12n(H) = 12
    n(S∪H)=18n(S \cup H) = 18
    The formula is n(S∪H)=n(S)+n(H)−n(S∩H)n(S \cup H) = n(S) + n(H) - n(S \cap H).
    We need to find n(S∩H)n(S \cap H).

    18=16+12−n(S∩H)18 = 16 + 12 - n(S \cap H) 18=28−n(S∩H)18 = 28 - n(S \cap H) n(S∩H)=28−18n(S \cap H) = 28 - 18 n(S∩H)=10n(S \cap H) = 10

    The correct option is C.
    The number of students who play soccer and hockey is C. 10\boxed{\text{C. } 10}.

    :
    The set difference P−QP - Q represents all elements that are in set PP but not in set QQ.
    This is equivalent to the intersection of set PP and the complement of set QQ, denoted as Q′Q'.
    Therefore, P−Q=P∩Q′P - Q = P \cap Q'.
    The correct option is C.
    P−QP - Q is same as C. (P∩Q′)\boxed{\text{C. } (P \cap Q')}.

    :
    We are given:
    n(A−B)=18n(A - B) = 18
    n(A∪B)=70n(A \cup B) = 70
    n(A∩B)=25n(A \cap B) = 25
    We need to find n(B)n(B).

  6. Use the formula for n(A−B)n(A - B) to find n(A)n(A).

    n(A−B)=n(A)−n(A∩B)n(A - B) = n(A) - n(A \cap B)

    18=n(A)−2518 = n(A) - 25 n(A)=18+25n(A) = 18 + 25 n(A)=43n(A) = 43
  7. Use the formula for n(A∪B)n(A \cup B) to find n(B)n(B).

    n(A∪B)=n(A)+n(B)−n(A∩B)n(A \cup B) = n(A) + n(B) - n(A \cap B)

    70=43+n(B)−2570 = 43 + n(B) - 25 70=18+n(B)70 = 18 + n(B) n(B)=70−18n(B) = 70 - 18 n(B)=52n(B) = 52

    The correct option is D.
    n(B)n(B) is D. 52\boxed{\text{D. } 52}.

    :
    Let BB be the set of people who buy and SS be the set of people who sell.
    We are given:
    Percentage of people who buy, n(B)=70%n(B) = 70\%
    Percentage of people who sell, n(S)=90%n(S) = 90\%
    All people buy or sell or do both, which means n(B∪S)=100%n(B \cup S) = 100\%.
    We need to find the percentage of people who do both, n(B∩S)n(B \cap S).

    Use the Principle of Inclusion-Exclusion for percentages:
    n(B∪S)=n(B)+n(S)−n(B∩S)n(B \cup S) = n(B) + n(S) - n(B \cap S)

    100%=70%+90%−n(B∩S)100\% = 70\% + 90\% - n(B \cap S) 100%=160%−n(B∩S)100\% = 160\% - n(B \cap S) n(B∩S)=160%−100%n(B \cap S) = 160\% - 100\% n(B∩S)=60%n(B \cap S) = 60\%

    The correct option is A.
    The percentage of people who do both is A. 60%\boxed{\text{A. } 60\%}.
