a)  Making a Venn Diagram, label the diagram.

$$\color{red}{\text{Only telescope club}} \color{black}{|} \color{orange}{\text{Both clubs}} \color{black}{|} \color{yellow}{\text{Only Math}}$$

$$\color{red}{x-y}\color{black}{|}\color{orange}{y}\color{black}{|}\color{yellow}{2x-y}$$

x-y+y+2x-y=3x-y

b)  2x-y+x-y=3x-2y
