Worked solution
2(a)
1. Find the number of men who passed the test from the given probability.
Let the number of men who passed the test be .
Since one person is selected from 21 people,
So, men passed the test.
2. Find the number of women who failed the test using the probability of selecting two without replacement.
Let the number of women who failed the test be .
The probability that two selected people are both women who failed is
So,
Since , .
So, women failed the test.
3. Use the total number of people to find the number of women who passed.
The known entries are:
Men passed , men failed , women failed .
Total number of people is , so
2(b)(i)
1. Interpret the meaning of $A\cap B'$.
is the set of students who listen to pop music.
is the set of students who do not listen to classical music.
So means students who are in and in .
Students who listen to pop music but do not listen to classical music.
2(b)(ii)
1. Find the number of students who listen to both pop and classical music.
Since and ,
2(b)(iii)
1. Find the number of students who listen to classical music only.
From part (ii),
Classical music only:
2(b)(iv)
