Sets

In a survey of 600 students, 150 drink tea, 225 drink coffee and 100 drink both tea and coffee. Find how many students drink neither tea nor coffee.

Reveal model answer + marking points▾

n(T) = 150, n(C) = 225, n(T intersection C) = 100. Students drinking at least one = n(T union C) = n(T) + n(C) - n(T intersection C) = 150 + 225 - 100 = 275. Students drinking neither = total - n(T union C) = 600 - 275 = 325.

neither = n(U) - n(A union B)

Marking-scheme points

  • ✓n(T union C) = 150 + 225 - 100 = 275
  • ✓Neither = total - n(T union C)
  • ✓600 - 275 = 325 students

Verify De Morgan's law (A union B)' = A' intersection B' for U = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10}, A = {2,3,4,5}, B = {4,5,6,7,8}.

Reveal model answer + marking points▾

A union B = {2,3,4,5,6,7,8}, so (A union B)' = U - (A union B) = {1,9,10}. Now A' = {1,6,7,8,9,10} and B' = {1,2,3,9,10}, so A' intersection B' = {1,9,10}. Since (A union B)' = {1,9,10} = A' intersection B', De Morgan's law is verified.

(A union B)' = A' intersection B'

Marking-scheme points

  • ✓(A union B)' = {1,9,10}
  • ✓A' intersection B' = {1,9,10}
  • ✓Both sides equal -> law verified

Relations and Functions

Find the domain and range of the function f(x) = sqrt(9 - x^2).

Reveal model answer + marking points▾

For f(x) to be real, the expression under the square root must be non-negative: 9 - x^2 >= 0, i.e. x^2 <= 9, so -3 <= x <= 3. Hence the domain is [-3, 3]. As x varies over this interval, 9 - x^2 ranges from 0 (at x = +/-3) to 9 (at x = 0), so sqrt(9 - x^2) ranges from 0 to 3. Hence the range is [0, 3].

sqrt() defined only for non-negative values

Marking-scheme points

  • ✓Need 9 - x^2 >= 0 -> -3 <= x <= 3, domain [-3, 3]
  • ✓9 - x^2 lies between 0 and 9
  • ✓Range = [0, 3]

Linear Inequalities

The longest side of a triangle is three times the shortest side and the third side is 2 cm shorter than the longest side. If the perimeter of the triangle is at least 61 cm, find the minimum length of the shortest side.
