Question 21. In a survey of 200 students from 7 different schools, 50 people do not play NFS, 40 people do not play Dota and 10 people play no online game. Then find the no. of people out of 200 people who do not play both the games provided these are the only two games on offer.

Answer: Option A. -> 80
:
A
Let the no. of people who do not play NFS be n(NI) = 50 (Given)
Similarlyno. of people who do not play Dota be n(DI) = 40 (Given)
And theno. of people who do not play any gamen(NI ∩ DI) = 10 (Given)
We have to find the no. of people who do not play both the games = n(N∩ D)I
We know from the Demorgan's law

(A∩ B)I = AI ∪BI
So,
n(N∩ D)I = n(NI) ∪n(DI)
n(NI) ∪n(DI)= n(NI) +n(DI)-n(NI ∩ DI)
n(NI) ∪n(DI) = 50 + 40 - 10
= 80
Question 22. If the sets A and B are defined as
A = {(x, y) : y =  1x, 0 ≠ x ∈ R}
B = {(x, y) : y = -x, x ∈ R}, then
  1.    A ∩ B = A
  2.    A ∩ B = B
  3.    A ∩ B = ∅
  4.    None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> A ∩ B = ∅
:
C
Since y = 1x, y = -x meet when -x = 1xx2 = -1,
which does not give any real value of x.
Hence, A ∩ B =∅.
Question 23. In a group of 70 people, 37 like coffee, 52 like tea and each person like at least one of the two drinks. The number of persons liking both coffee and tea is:
  1.    16
  2.    13
  3.    19
  4.    20
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 19
:
C
n(AB) = n(A)+n(B)n(AB)
We have, 70 = 37 + 52 - n(AB)
n(AB) = 19.
Question 24. In a committee 50 people speak French, 20 speak Spanish and 10 speak both Spanish and French. The number of persons speaking at least one of these two languages is
  1.    60
  2.    40
  3.    38
  4.    58
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 60
:
A
n(SF) = n(S)+n(F)n(SF)
n(SF) = 20 + 50 -10 = 60
Question 25. A={x:xR, x2=16 and 2x=6} can be represented in the roster form as _________ .
  1.    A = {}
  2.    A = { 14, 3, 4 }
  3.    A = { 3 }
  4.    A = { 4 }
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> A = {}
:
A
x2=16x=±4
2x=6x=3
There is no value of x which satisfies both the givenequations. The set A is an empty set or a null set.
Thus, A = {}.
Question 26. Let F1 be the set of all parallelograms, F2 the set of rectangles, F3 the set of rhombuses, F4 the set of squares and F5 the set of trapeziums in a plane, then F1 is equal to 
  1.    F2∩F3
  2.    F2∪F3∪F4
  3.    F3∩F4
  4.    F2∩F1
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> F2∪F3∪F4
:
B
Since every rectangle, rhombus and square is parallelogram so
F1=F2F3F4
Question 27. Of the 200 candidates who were interviewed for a position at a call center, 100 had a two-wheeler, 70 had a credit card and 140 had a mobile phone. 40 of them had both two-wheeler and credit card, 30 had both credit card and mobile phone and 60 had both two wheeler and mobile phone and 10 had all three. How many candidates had none of the three?
  1.    0
  2.    10
  3.    20
  4.    18
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 10
:
B
Number of candidates who had none of the three = Total number of candidates - number of candidates who had at least one of three devices.
Total number of candidates = 200 =n(U), where U is the universal set
Number of candidates who had at least one of the three =n(ABC), where A is the set of those who have a two wheeler, B the set of those who have a credit card and C the set of those who have a mobile phone.
We know that n(ABC)=n(A)+n(B)+n(C)
[n(AB)+n(BC)+n(CA)]+n(ABC)
Therefore, n(ABC)=100+70+140{40+30+60}+10
Or n(ABC)=190.
As 190 candidates who attended the interview had at least one of the three gadgets, n(U)n(ABC)=200 - 190 = 10 candidates had none of three.
Question 28. If A = [(x,y): x2+y2=25]  And B = [(x,y): x2+9y2=144], then AB contains 
 
  1.    One point 
  2.    Three points 
  3.    Two points
  4.    Four points
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> Four points
:
D
A = Set of all values (x,y) : x2+y2=25=52
If A = [(x,y): X2+y2=25]  And B = [(x,y): X2+9y2=144], the...
B = x2144+y216=1 i.e., x2(12)2+y2(4)2=1
Clearly , A B consists of four points.
Question 29. Sets A and B have 3 and 6 elements respectively. What can be the minimum number of elements in (A U B )
 
  1.    3
  2.    6
  3.    9
  4.    18
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 6
:
B
n(A B) = n(A) + n(B) - n(A B) = 3 + 6 - 1 (AB)
Since maximum number of elements in A B = 3
Minimum number of elements in A B = 9 - 3 = 6 .
Question 30. If X = {8n7n1:nN} and Y={49(n1):nN} , then 
  1.    X ⊆ Y
  2.    Y ⊆ X
  3.    X = Y
  4.    None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> X ⊆ Y
:
A
Since 8n7n1=(7+1)n7n1
= 7n+nC17n1+nC27n2+.....+nCn17+nCn7n1
= nC272+nC373+...+nCn7n,(nC0=nCnnC1=nCn1etc,)
= 49[nC2+nC3(7)+........+nCn7n2]
8n7n1 is a multiple of 49 for n 2
For n = 1 , 8n7n1=871=0;
For n = 2, 8n7n1=64141=49
8n7n1 is a multiple of 49 for n N
X contains elements which are multiples of 49 and clearlyγ
contains all multiplies of 49. X Y.
