Answer:
i) 12 believe neither of these things.
ii) 3 believe voting is a waste of time but don't believe that they have been abducted by space aliens.
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm going to solve these question treating these events as Venn sets.
I am going to say that:
Event A: Voting is a waste of time.
Event B: They have been abducated by space aliens.
45 believe that Voting is a waste of time
This means that [tex]A = 45[/tex]
49 believe that they have been abducted by space aliens
This means that [tex]B = 49[/tex]
42 believe both of these things
This means that [tex]A \cap B = 42[/tex]
i). How many believe neither of these things?
Total of 64.
At least one is:
[tex]A \cup B = A + B - A \cap B[/tex]
With the values we have
[tex]A \cup B = 45 + 49 - 42 = 52[/tex]
None:
[tex]64 - 52 = 12[/tex]
12 believe neither of these things.
ii). How many believe Voting is a waste of time but don't believe that they have been abducted by space aliens?
This is:
[tex]A - B = A - (A \cap B) = 45 - 42 = 3[/tex]
3 believe voting is a waste of time but don't believe that they have been abducted by space aliens.
