The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will use the principle of inclusion-exclusion for three sets. Let's denote the number of people who liked city A, B, and C as follows: - Let \( n(A) = 3700 \) (people who liked city A) - Let \( n(B) = 4000 \) (people who liked city B) - Let \( n(C) = 5000 \) (people who liked city C) - Let \( n(A \cap B) = 700 \) (people who liked both A and B) - Let \( n(B \cap C) = 1200 \) (people who liked both B and C) - Let \( n(A \cap C) = 1000 \) (people who liked both A and C) We need to find the number of people who liked all three cities, denoted as \( n(A \cap B \cap C) \). ### Step 1: Use the formula for the union of three sets The formula for the union of three sets is given by: \[ n(A \cup B \cup C) = n(A) + n(B) + n(C) - n(A \cap B) - n(B \cap C) - n(A \cap C) + n(A \cap B \cap C) \] ### Step 2: Substitute the known values We know that the total number of people surveyed is 10,000, which means: \[ n(A \cup B \cup C) = 10000 \] Now substituting the known values into the formula: \[ 10000 = 3700 + 4000 + 5000 - 700 - 1200 - 1000 + n(A \cap B \cap C) \] ### Step 3: Simplify the equation Calculating the sum and differences: \[ 10000 = 3700 + 4000 + 5000 = 12700 \] \[ 12700 - 700 - 1200 - 1000 = 12700 - 2900 = 9800 \] So we have: \[ 10000 = 9800 + n(A \cap B \cap C) \] ### Step 4: Solve for \( n(A \cap B \cap C) \) Now, we can isolate \( n(A \cap B \cap C) \): \[ n(A \cap B \cap C) = 10000 - 9800 = 200 \] ### Conclusion Thus, the number of people who liked all three cities A, B, and C is: \[ \boxed{200} \]
