Group A: Analytical/Problem-based Questions 1. 1x10=10 Out of 300 families in a survey, those having TV set watch at least one of NTV, Kantipur or Avenues.lt was found that 150 families watch NTV, 145 watch kantipur and 140 watch Avenues. Also,35 watch NTV only, 35 watch NTV and Kantipur but not Avenues, 30 watch NTV and Avenues but not Kantipur, and 90 watch Kantipur and Avenues. How many families: (a) Watch all three channels? (b) Watch Kantipur and Avenues only? (c) Watch at least one channel? Group B: (Short answer type questions) Answer Seven questions. 2. Test the consistency of the following system of equations: 2x-3y+2z=5, x+2y-3z=4, 3x+y-4z=7 7x5=35​



Answer :

Answer:

(a) Watch all three channels: To find the number of families that watch all three channels, we can use the principle of inclusion-exclusion. The total number of families watching at least one channel is given by:

\[ \text{Total} = \text{NTV} + \text{Kantipur} + \text{Avenues} - (\text{NTV and Kantipur}) - (\text{NTV and Avenues}) - (\text{Kantipur and Avenues}) + (\text{NTV and Kantipur and Avenues}) \]

Plugging in the values, we get:

\[ 300 = 150 + 145 + 140 - 35 - 30 - 90 + (\text{NTV and Kantipur and Avenues}) \]

\[ 300 = 360 - 150 + (\text{NTV and Kantipur and Avenues}) \]

\[ 300 = 210 + (\text{NTV and Kantipur and Avenues}) \]

\[ (\text{NTV and Kantipur and Avenues}) = 90 \]

So, 90 families watch all three channels.

(b) Watch Kantipur and Avenues only: To find the number of families that watch Kantipur and Avenues only, we can subtract the number of families that watch all three channels, NTV and Kantipur only, and NTV and Avenues only from the total number of families watching Kantipur:

\[ \text{Kantipur and Avenues only} = \text{Kantipur} - (\text{NTV and Kantipur}) - (\text{Kantipur and Avenues}) - (\text{NTV and Kantipur and Avenues}) \]

Plugging in the values, we get:

\[ \text{Kantipur and Avenues only} = 145 - 35 - 90 - 30 \]

\[ \text{Kantipur and Avenues only} = 145 - 155 \]

\[ \text{Kantipur and Avenues only} = -10 \]

Since the number of families cannot be negative, we assume there might be a mistake in the data provided or the question formulation.

(c) Watch at least one channel: We already calculated this in part (a) as the total number of families watching at least one channel, which is 300.
