Step-by-step solution
22 stepsa(i): Prove .
Elements in are in only, only, or both.
Substitute .
Substitute .
Simplify.
n(A \cup B) = n(A) + n(B) - n(A \cap B)
a(ii): Same as a(i), standard inclusion-exclusion principle for two sets.
n(A \cup B) = n(A) + n(B) - n(A \cap B)
a(iii): Prove using rearrangement from a(i).
From , rearrange.
But listed as for union, perhaps alternative form.
n(A \cup B) = n(A) + n(B) - n(A \cap B)
b(i): Prove .
.
.
Add the formulas.
Note .
Substitute into sum.
Solve for intersection.
n(A \cap B) = n(A) + n(B) - n(A \cup B)
c(i): Likely , which is equivalent to a(i).
Partition .
n(A \cup B) = n(A \cap B) + n(A \setminus B) + n(B \setminus A)
d(i): Prove .
, elements in not in .
.
Solve for difference.
n(A - B) = n(A) - n(A \cap B)
e: Both sides equal: .
Verified as in d(i).
n(A - B) = n(A) - n(A \cap B)
f: Both: Alternative proof .
Assuming finite sets, count elements in excluding .
Same as d(i).
n(A - B) = n(A) - n(A \cap B)
g: Of the two: .
Yes, by definition , where is complement relative to universe, but cardinality same.
n(A - B) = n(A \cap B')
h: Prove .
Use inclusion-exclusion principle for three sets.
Divide into 7 disjoint regions:
-
Only A:
-
Only B:
-
Only C:
-
A and B only:
-
A and C only:
-
B and C only:
-
All three:
-
= sum of all 7.
Express each
(Subtract pairwise, add back triple.)
Similarly for others.

Full expansion:
No, standard derivation:
From two-set:
Substitute.
Simplify.
n(A \cup B \cup C) = n(A) + n(B) + n(C) - n(A \cap B) - n(A \cap C) - n(B \cap C) + n(A \cap B \cap C)
