9. Consider the following sets.

Set Set Description

J {factors of 18}
K {multiples of 5}
L {7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 19, 20}
M {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}

10. Shaleeza and Carmen were working on their math in the art room. They each created
Venn diagrams for an online survey that asked movie goers about the type of movies
they like to watch.

Action 51%
Comedy 38%
Drama 47%
Action and Drama 22%
Comedy and Action 16%
Comedy and Drama 13%
All 3 types 10%

Shaleeza spilled paint on her Venn diagram so she decided to look at Carmen’s work
rather than starting over but, Shaleeza noticed the number she has showing for
only action was not the same value Carmen calculated.
