  • $256$
  • B
    $64$
  • C
    $8$
  • D
    $16$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$256$
a
$\mathrm{A}=(-\infty, 1) \cup(3, \infty)$

$\mathrm{B}=(-\infty,-2) \cup(2, \infty)$

$\mathrm{C}=(-\infty, 2] \cup[6, \infty)$

So, $\mathrm{A} \cap \mathrm{B} \cap \mathrm{C}=(-\infty,-2) \cup[6, \infty)$

$\mathrm{z} \cap(\mathrm{A} \cap \mathrm{B} \cap \mathrm{C})^{\prime}=\{-2,-1,0,-1,2,3,4,5\}$

Hence no. of its subsets $=2^{8}=256$.

  • If $\left( {A - C} \right) \subseteq B$ then $A \subseteq B$
  • B
    If $\left( {A - B} \right) \subseteq C$ then $A \subseteq C$
  • C
    $\left( {C \cup A} \right) \cap \left( {C \cup B} \right) = C$
  • D
    $B \cap C \ne \phi $
Answer
Correct option: A.
If $\left( {A - C} \right) \subseteq B$ then $A \subseteq B$
a
For $A\, = \,C,\,A - C\, = \,\phi $

$ \Rightarrow \phi \, \subseteq \,B$

But $A\, \subseteq \,B$

$ \Rightarrow \,$ option $A$ is NOT true

Let $x\, \in \,\,(C\,x\, \in \,(C\, \cup \,A)\,\, \cap (C\, \cup \,B)\,)$

$ \Rightarrow \,x\,(C\, \cup \,A)$ and $x\, \in \,\,(C\, \cup \,B)$

$ \Rightarrow \,(x\, \in \,C$ or $x\, \in \,A)$ and  $(x\, \in \,C$ or $x\, \in \,B)$

$ \Rightarrow \,(x\, \in \,C$ or $x\, \in \,\,(A\, \cap \,B)$

$ \Rightarrow \,(x\, \in \,C$   or  $x\, \in \,C$  (as $A\, \cup \,B \subseteq \,C\,$ )

$ \Rightarrow \,x\, \in \,C$

$ \Rightarrow (C\, \cup \,A)\,\, \cap (C\, \cup \,B)\, \subseteq \,C\,\,\,(1)$

Now $x\, \in \,C\, \Rightarrow \,x\, \in \,(C\, \cup \,A)$ and $x\, \in \,\,(C\, \cup \,B\,)$

$ \Rightarrow x\, \in (C\, \cup \,A)\,\, \cap (C\, \cup \,B)$

$ \Rightarrow C\, \subseteq \,(C\, \cup \,A)\,\, \cap (C\, \cup \,B)\, \subseteq \,C\,\,\,(2)$

$ \Rightarrow $ from $(1)$ and $(2)$

$C\, = \,(C\, \cup \,A)\,\, \cap (C\, \cup \,B)$

$ \Rightarrow $ option $B$ is true

Let $x\, \in \,A$ and $x\, \notin \,B$

$\Rightarrow \,x\, \in \,(A - B)$

$ \Rightarrow \,x\, \in \,C$ (as $A - B \subseteq \,C$ )

Let $x\, \in \,A$ and $x\, \in \,B$

$ \Rightarrow \,x\, \in \,(A \cap B)$

$ \Rightarrow \,x\, \in \,C$ (as $A \cap B \subseteq \,C$ )

Hence $x\, \in \,A\,\, \Rightarrow \,x\, \in \,C$

$ \Rightarrow A\, \subseteq \,C$

$ \Rightarrow $ option $C$ is true

As $C \supseteq \,(A \cap B)$

$ \Rightarrow B \cap C \supseteq \,(A \cap B)$

As $A \cap B \ne \phi $

$ \Rightarrow B \cap C \ne \phi $

Hence the correct answer is option $(A)$

$n(C)\, = \,\left[ {\frac{{140}}{5}} \right]\, = \,28$

$n(M)\, = \,\left[ {\frac{{140}}{2}} \right]\, = \,70$

$n(p\, \cup \,C\, \cup \,M)\, = \,n(P)\, + \,n(C)\, + \,n(M)$ $ - \,n(P \cap C) - \,n(C \cap M) - $ $n(M\, \cap \,P)\, + \,n(P \cap M \cap C)$

$ = \,46\, + \,28\, + 70\, - \,\left[ {\frac{{140}}{{15}}} \right]\, - \,\left[ {\frac{{140}}{{10}}} \right]\, - \,\left[ {\frac{{140}}{6}} \right]\, + \,\left[ {\frac{{140}}{{30}}} \right]\,$

$=\,144\,-\,9\,-14\,-\,23+4\,=\,102$

So required number of student $=\,140\,-\,102\,=\,38$

$n(A)\, = \,25$

$n(B)\, = \,20$

$n(A \cap B)\, = \,8$

$n(A \cap \bar B)\, = \,17$

$n(\bar A \cap B)\, = \,12$

Now $\%$ of th population who look advertisement

$=\,\frac {30}{100}\times 17\,+$ $\frac {40}{100}\times 12\,+$ $\frac {50}{100}\times 8$

$=\,13.9$

Let $S = \{ x \in R:x \ge 0$ and $2\left| {\sqrt x - 3} \right| + \sqrt x \left( {\sqrt x - 6} \right) + 6 = 0\} $ then $S:$ . . .
  • A
    contains exactly one element.
  • contains exactly two elements
  • C
    contains exactly four element.
  • D
    is an empty set
Answer
Correct option: B.
contains exactly two elements
b
Case - $I$ : $x\,\in \,[0,\,9]$

$2(3 - \sqrt x )\, + \,x\, - \,6\sqrt x \, + \,6\, = \,0$

$ \Rightarrow \,x\, - \,8\sqrt x \, + \,12\, = \,0\, \Rightarrow \,\sqrt x \, = \,4,2\, \Rightarrow \,x\, = \,16,4$

Since $x\, \in \,[0,\,9]$

$\therefore \,\,x\,=\,4$

Case - $II$ : $x\, \in \,[9,\,\infty ]$

$2(\sqrt x  - 3)\, + \,x\, - \,6\sqrt x \, + \,6\, = \,0$

$ \Rightarrow \,x\, - \,4\sqrt x \,\, = \,0\, \Rightarrow \,x\, = \,16,0$

Since $x\, \in \,[9,\,\infty ]$

$\therefore \,\,x\,=\,16$

Hence , $x\,=\,4$ and $16$

  • A
    $P \subset Q$ and $Q-P \neq \varnothing$
  • B
    $Q \not \subset P$
  • C
    $P \not \subset Q$
  • $P=Q$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$P=Q$
d
$P=\{\theta: \sin \theta-\cos \theta=\sqrt{2} \cos \theta\}$

$Q=\{\theta: \sin \theta+\cos \theta=\sqrt{2} \sin \theta\}$

From P

$\sin \theta-\cos \theta=\sqrt{2} \cos \theta$

$\sin \theta=(\sqrt{2}+1) \cos \theta$

$\frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}=(\sqrt{2}+1)$

$\tan \theta=(\sqrt{2}+1)$

$\text { from } Q$

$\sin \theta+\cos \theta=\sqrt{2} \sin \theta$

$\sin \theta(\sqrt{2}-1)=\cos \theta$

$\frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}=(\sqrt{2}-1)$

$\tan \theta=(\sqrt{2}-1)$

$\tan \theta=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}-1} \times \frac{\sqrt{2}+1}{\sqrt{2}+1}=\sqrt{2}+1$

$\therefore P=Q$
