Right! \(\displaystyle \text{(b) What is the value of }n\big[(B \cup D) \cap C\big]\,?\) I have no idea what this notation even means. . You don't? Click to expand... It means: .(Everything in sets B and D) intersected with (set C) We see that it has the regions labeled 3, 6, 2, 3. Therefore: .\(\displaystyle n\big[(B \cup D) \cap C\big] \:=\:3+6+2+3 \:=\:14\)
