Here's the Solution to this Question


a)

N(E\cup H\cup M)=N(E)+N(H)+N(M)

-N(E\cap H)-N(E\cap M)-N(H\cap M)

+N(E\cap H\cap M)


=30+45+60-10-20-15+5=95

N((E\cup H\cup M)^C)=N(U)-N(E\cup H\cup M)

=100-95=5

5 students speak none of the three languages.


b)

N(\text{ exactly two languages})

=N(E\cap H)-N(E\cap H\cap M)

+N(E\cap M)-N(E\cap H\cap M)

+N(H\cap M)-N(E\cap H\cap M)

=10-5+20-5+15-5=30

30 students speak exactly two languages.
