4. B
The answer is A
To answer this question, we need to analyze the given information.
According to the information, there are 18 students who play baseball, 17 students who play basketball, and 30 students who play either or both sports.
To find the number of students who play both basketball and baseball, we need to subtract the number of students who play only basketball or only baseball from the total number of students who play either sport.
Let's break down the options:
A. The first diagram shows 13 students playing baseball, 3 students in the intersection (which represents both sports), and 12 students playing basketball. This doesn't match the given information, as it shows a different number of students playing baseball.
B. The second diagram shows 13 students playing baseball, 6 students in the intersection, and 11 students playing basketball. This matches the given information, as it correctly represents both the number of students playing baseball and basketball.
C. The third diagram shows 14 students playing baseball, 4 students in the intersection, and 12 students playing basketball. This doesn't match the given information, as it shows a different number of students playing baseball.
D. The fourth diagram shows 12 students playing baseball, 4 students in the intersection, and 11 students playing basketball. This doesn't match the given information, as it shows a different number of students playing basketball.
Based on the analysis, the correct answer is B.
