Two finite sets have $m$ and $n$ elements. The total number of subsets of the first set is $56$ more than the total number of subsets of the second set. The values of $m$ and $n$ are
- A
$7, 6$
- ✓
$6, 3$
- C
$5, 1$
- D
$8, 7$
AnswerCorrect option: B. $6, 3$
b
(b) Since ${2^m} - {2^n} = 56 = 8 \times 7 = {2^3} \times 7$
==> ${2^n}({2^{m - n}} - 1) = {2^3} \times 7$, $\therefore $ $n = 3$ and ${2^{m - n}} = 8 = {2^3}$
==> $m - n = 3$ ==> $m - 3 = 3$ ==> $m = 6$; $\therefore \,\,m = 6,\,\,n = 3$.

$A \cap B = A$
- B
$A \cap B = B$
- ✓
$A \cap B = \phi $
- D
AnswerCorrect option: C. $A \cap B = \phi $
c
(c) Since $\,y = {1 \over x},\,y = - x$ meet when $ - x = {1 \over x}$ ==> ${x^2} = - 1$, which does not give any real value of $x.$
Hence, $\,A \cap B = \phi $.

In a class of $55$ students, the number of students studying different subjects are $23$ in Mathematics, $24$ in Physics, $19$ in Chemistry, $12$ in Mathematics and Physics, $9$ in Mathematics and Chemistry, $7$ in Physics and Chemistry and $4$ in all the three subjects. The total numbers of students who have taken exactly one subject is
Answerd
(d) $n(M) = 23, n(P) = 24, n(C)= 19$
$n(M \cap P) = 12, n(M \cap C)= 9, n(P \cap C)= 7 ,$
$n(M \cap P \cap C) = 4 $
We have to find $n(M \cap P' \cap C'), n(P \cap M ' \cap C' ),n ( C \cap M' \cap P') $
$= n(M)-n(M \cap (P \cup C))$
$= n(M) - n[(M \cap P) \cup (M \cap C)]$
$= n(M) -n(M \cap P)-n(M \cap C) + n(M \cap P \cap C)$
$= 23 -12 -9 + 4 = 27 -21 = 6$
$= n(P)-n[P \cap (M \cup C)] = $ $n(P) - n[(P \cap M) \cup (P \cap C)]$
$= n(P) -n(P \cap M) -n(P \cap C) + n(P \cap M \cap C) $
$= 24 -12 -7 + 4 = 9$
$n(C \cap M' \cap P') = n(C) - n(C \cap P) - n(C \cap M) + n(C \cap P \cap M)$
$= 19 -7 -9 + 4 = 23 -16 = 7.$
So total number of student is $=6+9+7=22$

Of the members of three athletic teams in a school $21$ are in the cricket team, $26$ are in the hockey team and $29$ are in the football team. Among them, $14$ play hockey and cricket, $15$ play hockey and football, and $12$ play football and cricket. Eight play all the three games. The total number of members in the three athletic teams is
Answera
(a) Let $B, H, F$ denote the sets of members who are on the basketball team, hockey team and football team respectively.
Then we are given $n\,(B) = 21,\,n\,(H) = 26,n\,(F) = 29$
$n\,(H \cap B) = 14$, $n\,(H \cap F) = 15$, $n\,(F \cap B) = 12$
and $n\,(B \cap H \cap F) = 8$.
We have to find $n\,(B \cup H \cup F)$.
To find this, we use the formula
$n\,(B \cup H \cup F) = n\,(B) + n\,(H) + n\,(F)$
$ - n\,(B \cap H) - n\,(H \cap F) - n\,(F \cap B) + n\,(B \cap H \cap F)$
Hence,$n\,(B \cup H \cup F) = (21 + 26 + 29) - (14 + 15 + 12) + 8 = 43$
Thus these are $43$ members in all.

In a class of $30$ pupils, $12$ take needle work, $16$ take physics and $18$ take history. If all the $30$ students take at least one subject and no one takes all three then the number of pupils taking $2$ subjects is
Answera
(a) Given $n(N) = 12$, $n(P) = 16$, $n(H) = 18$, $n(N \cup P \cup H) = 30$
From, $n(N \cup P \cup H) = n(N) + n(P) + n(H) - n(N \cap P)$
$ - n(P \cap H) - n(N \cap H) + n(N \cap P \cap H)$
$\therefore n(N \cap P) + n(P \cap H) + n(N \cap H) = 16$
Now, number of pupils taking two subjects
$ = n(N \cap P) + n(P \cap H) + n(N \cap H) - 3n(N \cap P \cap H)$
$ = 16 - 0 = 16$.

$A_1 \cap A_2 \cap A_3 \ldots \cap A_m=\phi$
$\therefore A_1 \cap A_2 \cup A_3 \ldots \cup A_m=\{1,2,3, \ldots, 100\}$
Let $\left|A_1\right|=1\left|A_2\right|=2 \ldots\left|A_m\right|=M$
$A_1, A_2, A_3 \ldots, A_m$ are disjoint set.
$\therefore\left|A_1\right|+\left|A_2\right| \ldots+\left|A_m\right|=100$
$1+2+3 \ldots+m=100$
$\frac{m(m+1)}{2}=100$
$m^2+m-200=0$
$=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4 a c}}{2 a}=\frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{1+4 \cdot 1 \cdot 200}}{2 \cdot 1}$
$=\frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{1+800}}{2}=\frac{-1+\sqrt{801}}{2}$
$=\frac{-1+28.30}{2}=\frac{27.30}{2}=16.65$
$m=\frac{1+28.30}{2}=\frac{29.30}{2}=14.65$
$\therefore m < 14$
$\therefore$ Maximum possible of $m$ is $13$ . ($14$th set will have same size as that of previous size)

Answera
$ \mathrm{n}(3) \Rightarrow \text { multiple of } 3 $
$ 102,105,108, \ldots . ., 699 $
$ \mathrm{~T}_{\mathrm{n}}=699=102+(\mathrm{n}-1)(3) $
$ \mathrm{n}=200 $
$ \mathrm{n}(3)=200 $
$ \because \mathrm{n}(4) \Rightarrow$ multiple of $4$

Answera
$ |2 \mathrm{a}-1|=3[\mathrm{a}]+2\{\mathrm{a}\} $
$ |2 \mathrm{a}-1|=[\mathrm{a}]+2 \mathrm{a}$
Case $-1$ : $\mathrm{a}>\frac{1}{2} $
$ 2 \mathrm{a}-1=[\mathrm{a}]+2 \mathrm{a} $
$ {[\mathrm{a}]=-1 \quad \therefore \mathrm{a} \in[-1,0) \text { Reject }} $
Case-$2$: $\mathrm{a}<\frac{1}{2} $
$ -2 \mathrm{a}+1=[\mathrm{a}]+2 \mathrm{a} $
$ \mathrm{a}=\mathrm{I}+\mathrm{f} $
$ -2(\mathrm{I}+\mathrm{f})+1=\mathrm{I}+2 \mathrm{I}+2 \mathrm{f} $
$ \mathrm{I}=0, \mathrm{f}=\frac{1}{4} \quad \therefore \mathrm{a}=\frac{1}{4} $
Hence $ \mathrm{a}=\frac{1}{4} $
$ 72 \sum_{\mathrm{a} \in \mathrm{S}} \mathrm{a}=72 \times \frac{1}{4}=18$

A group of $40$ students appeared in an examination of $3$ subjects - Mathematics, Physics Chemistry. It was found that all students passed in at least one of the subjects, $20$ students passed in Mathematics, $25$ students passed in Physics, $16$ students passed in Chemistry, at most $11$ students passed in both Mathematics and Physics, at most $15$ students passed in both Physics and Chemistry, at most $15$ students passed in both Mathematics and Chemistry. The maximum number of students passed in all the three subjects is___________.
Answera
$11-x \geq 0$ Maths and Physics
$\mathrm{x} \leq 11$
$\mathrm{x}=11$ does not satisfy the data.
$ 11+z \leq 15 \Rightarrow z \leq 4$
$ 11+y \leq 15 \Rightarrow y \leq 4$
Now
$ 9-z+0+14-y+z+11+y+5-y-z=40$
$ \Rightarrow y+z=-1$
Not possible
$\Rightarrow \mathrm{x} \leq 10$
For $\mathrm{x}=10$
Hence maximum number of students passed in all the three subjects is $10$.

$ 75 \leq \mathrm{C}+80-\mathrm{x} \leq 90 $
$ \mathrm{~m}+\mathrm{P}+\mathrm{C}+120-2 \mathrm{x}=210 $
$ \Rightarrow 15 \leq \mathrm{x} \leq 45 \& 30-\mathrm{x} \geq 0 $
$ \Rightarrow 15 \leq \mathrm{x} \leq 30 $
$ 30+15=45$

Let $A :\{1,2,3,4,5,6,7\}$. Define $B =\{ T \subseteq A$ : either $1 \notin T$ or $2 \in T \}$ and $C = \{ T \subseteq A : T$ the sum of all the elements of $T$ is a prime number $\}$. Then the number of elements in the set $B \cup C$ is $\dots\dots$
Answera
$B^{\prime}$ is a set containing sub sets of $A$ containing element $1$ and not containing $2$ .
And $C^{\prime}$ is a set containing subsets of $A$ whose sum of elements is not prime.
So, we need to calculate number of subsets of $\{3,4,5,6,7\}$ whose sum of elements plus $1$ is composite.
Number of such $54\,elements\,subset\,=1$
Number of such $4$ elements subset $=3$ (except selecting $3$ or $7$ )
Number of such $3$ elements subset $=6$ (except selecting $\{3,4,5\},\{3,6,7\},\{4,5,7\}$ or $\{5,6,7\}$ )
Number of such $2$ elements subset $=7$ (except selecting $\{3,7\},\{4,6\},\{5,7\})$
Number of such $1$ elements subset $=3$ (except selecting $\{4\}$ or $\{6\}$ )
Number of such $0$ elements subset $=1$
$n\left(B^{\prime} \cap C^{\prime}\right)=21 \Rightarrow n(B \cup C)=2^{7}-21=107$

Answerc
$S =\{4,6,9\} \quad T =\{9,10,11 \ldots 1000\}$
$A \left\{ a _{1}+ a _{2}+\ldots . .+ a _{ k }: K \in N \right\} \,and\, a _{ i } \in S$
Here by the definition of set '$A$'
$A=\{a: a=4 x+6 y+9 z\}$
Except the element $11$,every element of set $T$ is of of the form $4 x+6 y+9 z$ for some $x, y, z \in W$

Let $A=\left\{n \in N \mid n^{2} \leq n+10,000\right\}, B=\{3 k+1 \mid k \in N\}$ and $C=\{2 k \mid k \in N\}$, then the sum of all the elements of the set $A \cap(B-C)$ is equal to $.....$
Answera
$\mathrm{B}-\mathrm{C} \equiv\{7,13,19, \ldots 97, \ldots\}$
Now, $n^{2}-n \leq 100 \times 100$
$\Rightarrow \mathrm{n}(\mathrm{n}-1) \leq 100 \times 100$
$\Rightarrow \mathrm{A}=\{1,2, \ldots, 100\}$
So, $A \cap(B-C)=\{7,13,19, \ldots, 97\}$
Hence, sum $=\frac{16}{2}(7+97)=832$
