If X and Y are sets of integers, X # Y denotes the set of integers that belong to set X or set Y, but not both. If X consists of 16 integers, Y consists of 18 integers, and 6 of the integers are in both X and Y, then X # Y consists of how many integers?
Answer/Solution
22
Steps/Work
The number of integers that belong to set X ONLY is 16-6=10;
The number of integers that belong to set Y ONLY is 18-6=12;
The number of integers that belong to set X or set Y, but not both is 10+12=22.
Answer: C
