The correct Answer is:
To find the number of elements in the union of two sets A and B, we can use the formula: \[ n(A \cup B) = n(A) + n(B) - n(A \cap B) \] Where: - \( n(A) \) is the number of elements in set A - \( n(B) \) is the number of elements in set B - \( n(A \cap B) \) is the number of elements in the intersection of sets A and B Given: - \( n(A) = 20 \) - \( n(B) = 25 \) - \( n(A \cap B) = 5 \) Now, we can substitute these values into the formula: 1. Calculate \( n(A) + n(B) \): \[ n(A) + n(B) = 20 + 25 = 45 \] 2. Subtract \( n(A \cap B) \) from the result: \[ n(A \cup B) = 45 - 5 = 40 \] Thus, the number of elements in the union of sets A and B is: \[ n(A \cup B) = 40 \] **Final Answer:** \[ n(A \cup B) = 40 \] ---
