Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

There are

  • 7 played basketball;
  • 10 played soccer;
  • 9 played volleyball;
  • 1 played only basketball and volleyball;
  • 1 played only basketball and soccer;
  • 2 played only volleyball and soccer;
  • 2 played basketball, volleyball and soccer.

So,

  • 3 played basketball and volleyball;
  • 3 played basketball and soccer;
  • 4 played volleyball and soccer;
  • 7 - 1 - 1 - 2 = 3 played only basketball;
  • 10 - 1 - 2 - 2 = 5 played only soccer;
  • 9 - 1 - 2 - 2 = 4 played only volleyball.

Hence, 3 + 5 + 4 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 2 = 18 played one or more of the three sports

Answer: There are 18 players who played one or more of the three sports.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of students played basketball = 7

Number of students played volleyball = 9

Number of students played soccer = 10

Number of students played basketball and volleyball = 1

Number of students played volleyball and soccer = 2

Number of students played volleyball, basketball and soccer = 2

Number of students who played basketball only is given by

[tex]7-1-1-2=3[/tex]

Number of students who played volleyball only is given by

[tex]9-1-2-2\\\\=4[/tex]

Number of students who played soccer only is given by

[tex]10-1-2-2\\\\=5[/tex]

So, Number of students one or more of the three sports is given by

[tex]3+4+5+1+1+2+2\\\\=18[/tex]

Hence, there are 18 players who played one or more of the three sports.
