If n(A ∩ Bᶜ) = 44, n(Aᶜ ∩ B) = 36, and n(A △ B) = 92, what is the correct conclusion about the data?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The data are inconsistent

The symmetric difference \(A\triangle B\) contains elements belonging to exactly one of the two sets. Therefore \(A\triangle B=(A\cap B^c)\cup(A^c\cap B)\), and the two parts are disjoint. Its cardinality must be \(44+36=80\), not 92. Thus the stated values cannot all be true together, so option A is correct.
