There are 130 people in a sports centre. 65 people use the gym 51 people use the swimming pool, 44 people use the track 15 people use the gym and the pool 14 people use the pool and the track 10 people use the gym and the track 1 person uses all 3 facilities A person is selected at random, what is the probability that this person doesn't use any facilities?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The Venn diagram representing the situation is shown in the attached photo.

G represents the set of people that use the gym.

P represents the set of people that use the swimming pool.

T represents the set of people that use the track.

Since 1 person uses the 3 facilities, it means that

Number of persons that use gym and pool only is 15 - 1 = 14

Number of persons that use pool and track only is 14 - 1 = 13

Number of persons that use gym and track only is 10 - 1 = 9

Number of persons that use gym only is

65 - (14 + 1 + 9) = 41

Number of persons that use pool only is

51 - (14 + 1 + 13) = 23

Number of persons that use track only is

44 - (9 + 1 + 13) = 21

N represents the number of people that use none of the facilities. Since there are 130 people in a sports centre, it means that

41 + 23 + 21 + 9 + 14 + 13 + 1 + N = 130

122 + N = 130

N = 130 - 122

N = 8

Therefore, the probability that a person doesn't use any facilities is

8/130 = 0.062

What are sets?

A set is an unorganized well-defined collection of similar types of objects.

Eg : {1,2,3,4,5} or {Science, Maths, English}

How to solve?

Given:-

Total people (n) = 130

People using gym (G) = 65

People using swimming pool (P) = 51

People using track (T)  = 44

(Gym U pool) = 15

(pool U track) = 14

(Gym U track) = 10

(Gym U track U pool) = 1

Using venn diagram :

Total participating people are 41 + 23 + 21 + 14 + 9 + 13 + 1 = 122

since total people are 130, non participants are 130 - 122 = 8

Probability of an event = [tex]\frac{favourable}{total}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8}{130} = \frac{4}{65}[/tex]

Thus, the probability that a random person doesn't uses any facility is [tex]\frac{4}{65}[/tex]
