CSEC Mathematics · January 2016 · Paper 2 · Question 3(a)(iv)

A Venn diagram shows the number of students in Form 5A who have visited Canada (C) or Dominica (D). The diagram shows 3 students visited Canada only, x students visited both, 10 students visited Dominica only, and 2x students visited neither.

Hence, write down the number of students in each of the following subsets: C ∪ D, C ∩ D, (C ∪ D)'

This question uses a figure or table from the paper — you'll see it when you practise.
