Sets Exercise 6.1 Solution :

Question no – (1) 

Solution : 

(a) All tall boys in your class

= No, because information is not well-defined

(b) Collection of clever students in your class

= No, because information is not well-defined

(c) Collection of cars belonging to the people of Lucknow

= Yes, it is a set.

(d) Collection of all students of your school who are interested in maths

= No, because information is not well-defined

(e) Collection of all teenagers in your colony.

= Yes, it is a set.

(f) Collection of all interesting books in your school library

Question no – (2) 

Solution : 

Before we solve the above questions, first we need to understand what is Roster and Set builder method,

Roster method : In this method all the elements are written or listed one after the other using commas, without repetition inside curly brackets.

Set builder method : In this method, the property which describes the elements of the set is mentioned.

(a) {The days of the week}

Roster : A = {Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday}

Set builder : A = {x : x is a day of the week}

(b) {Vowels of the English alphabets}

Roster : B = {a, e, i, o, u},

Set builder : B = {x : x is a vowel}

(c) {Factors of 24}

Roster : C = {1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 24},

Set builder : C = {x : x | 24}

(d) {Composite natural numbers between 80 and 100}

Roster : D = {81, 82, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 98, 99}

Set builder : D = {x : x ∈ N, x is a composite number, 80 < x < 100}

Question no – (3) 

Solution : 

Before we solve the given problem, first we need to understand what is descriptive method,

Descriptive Method : In this method, a well defined description of the element of the set is written inside curly brackets.

Descriptive form :A = {January, March, May, July, August, October, December}

(b) B = {a, e, i, o, u}

Descriptive form :B = {a, e, i, o, u}

(c) P = {Sunday, Monday, Friday}

Descriptive form 😛 = {Sunday, Monday, Friday}

Descriptive form :  S = {100, 121, 144, 169, 196}

(e) L = {a, l, g, e, b, r}

Descriptive form : L = {a, l, g, e, b, r}

(f) R = {Ganga, Yamuna, Brahmaputra, Godavari, Narmada, Cauvery, Mahanadi, Krishna}

Descriptive form : R = {Ganga, Yamuna, Brahmaputra, Godavari, Narmada, Cauvery, Mahanadi, Krishna}

(g) A = fish, shark, whale, crocodile, alligator}

Descriptive form : A = fish, shark, whale, crocodile, alligator}

Question no – (1) 

Solution : 

A = {45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55}

B = {46, 48, 50, 52, 54},

C = {45, 48, 51, 54, 57}

Therefore,

(a) A ∪ B = {45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55} = A

(b) A ∩ B = {46, 48, 50, 52, 54} = B

(c) A ∩ C = {45, 48, 51, 54} = C – {57}

(d) A ∪ C = {45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 57} = A ∪ {57}

(e) A – C = {46, 47, 49, 50, 52, 53}

(f) C – A = {54}

Question number – (2)

Question no – (3) 

Solution : 

(a) Given in the question,

ξ = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};

A = {2, 4}

Therefore,

A1 = ξ – A = {1, 3, 5}

(b) According to the question,

A = {2, 3, 5, 6},

B = {1, 3, 7, 11, 12}

C = {6, 12}

Therefore, B ∪ C  = {1, 3, 6, 7, 11, 12}

(B ∪ C) ∩A = {1, 3, 6, 7, 11, 12} ∩ {2, 3, 5, 6} = {6}

Question no – (4) 

Solution :

Y = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}

(a) X ∪ Y = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19}

n(X ∪ Y) = 18

(b) X∩Y = φ

n(X ∩ Y) = 0

(c) X1 = {5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 20}

n(X1) = 7

(d) (X ∪ Y)1 = {20}

n(X ∪ Y)1 = 1

(e) (X – Y) = X, Since n(X ∩ Y) = 0

n(X – Y) = n(X) = 9

Therefore,

L.H.S. > n(X ∪ Y) = 18

R.H.S. > n(X) + n(Y) – n(X ∩ Y) = 9 + 9 – 0 = 18

Solution : 

Required Venn diagram :

According to the question,

n(ξ) = 52

n(A) = 31

n(B) = 17

n(A ∩ B) = 8.

Therefore,

(a) n(A  B)

= n(A ∪ B)

= 23 + 8 + 9

= 40

(b) n(A1)

= n(A1)

= 52 – 31

= 21

(c) n(A  B)1

= n(A ∪ B)1

= 52 – 40

= 12

Question no – (4) 

Solution : 

Required Venn diagram : 

According to the question,

n(A) = 29,

n(B) = 27,

n(A ∪ B) = 47

Therefore,

= n(A ∩ B)

= 9

(b) n(A – B)

= n(A – B)

= 20

Question no – (5) 

Solution : 

Required Venn diagram,

From the question we get,

n(A) = 38

n(Q) = 41

n(P ∩ Q) = 9

n(P ∪ Q) = 6

Therefore, the value of n(ξ),

= n(ξ)

= 29 + 9 + 32 + 6

= 76

Question no – (6) 

Solution : 

Required Venn diagram : 

According to the question,

n(P) = 64

n(A) = 29

n(A ∪ B)’ = 8

n(A ∩ B) = 12

Therefore, (a) n (B)

Solution : 

Required Venn diagram,  

From the question we get,

n(A – B) = 25

n(B – A) = 20

n(A ∪ B) = 52

Therefore,

(a) n(B)

= n(A∩B)

= 52 – (25 + 20)

= 52 – 45

= 7

(b) n(A)

= n(A)

For any doubt please comment in the comment section.

Question no – (9) 

Solution : 

Required Venn diagram :

Therefore,

n(M) = 69,

n(S) = 57,

n(M∪S) = 124 – 24 = 100

Now,

n(M ∩ S)

= 69 + 57 – 100

= 26
(a) Only in maths

= n(M) = 43,

(b) only in science

n(S) = 41,

(c) both in maths and science

n(M∩S) = 26

Question number – (10) 

Solution : 

Required Venn diagram,

 n(C ∪ T) = 84 – 15 = 69

 n(C – T) = 61 – 27 = 34

 n(T – C) = 69 – (34 + 27)

= 69 – 61

= 8

(a) the number of students who like tennis.

= n(T)

= 27 + 8

= 35

(b) the number of students who like only one of the games.

= n[(C ∪ T) – (C ∩ T)

= 34 + 8

= 42

Question no – (11) 

Solution : 

Let,

A ≡ set readers of “The Times of India”

B ≡ set of readers of “The Hindu”

 n(A) = 72, n(B) = 56, n(A∪B)1 = 7, n(ξ) = 120

(a) Read both of them,

= n(A∩B) = [n(A) + n(B)] – [n(ξ) – n (A ∪B) ]

= [72 + 56] – [120 – 7]

= 128 – 113

= 15

(b) Read only The Times of India,

= n (A – B) = n (A) – n (A ∩ B)

= 72 – 15

= 57

(c) Read only The Hindu,

= n (B – A) = n (B) – n (A ∩ B)

= 56 – 15

= 41

Question no – (12) 

Solution : 

Let, S ≡ set of  members who like swimming.

B ≡ set of  members who like badminton.

Let x be the number of members of the club

According to the diagram,

=  3x/5 – 34 + 34 + 5x/9 – 34 + 13 = x

or, 3x/5 + 5x/9 – x = 21

or, 27x + 25x – 45x/45 =  21

or, 7x/45 =  21

or, x =  135

Therefore,

(a) the number who like only swimming.

= 3 × 135/5 – 34

= 81 – 34

= 47

(b) the number who like only badminton.

= 5 × 135/9 = 34

= 75 – 34

= 41

(c) the total number of members of the club.

= 135

Question no – (13) 

Solution : 

Let, S ≡ set of students opt for science

E ≡ set of students opt for economics

(a) Students enrolled for Science only?

= no of students enrolled for science only

= n (ξ) – n(E)

= 400 – 250

= 150

(b) Students enrolled for Economics only?

= no of students enrolled for economics only

= n (E) – n(Ens)

= 250 – 160

= 90

Question no – (14) 

Solution : 

(a) Number of people who drink both tea and coffee

= (25 + 20) – 40

= 45 – 40

= 5

(b) Number of people who drink only tea,

= 40 – 20

= 20

Question no – (15) 

Solution : 

Required Venn diagram, 

Since, 5% students failed in both Students

= P ∪ C = 100 – 5

= 95%

Now,

P ∩ C = {(70 + 80) – 95}% = 55%

55% = 220 ⇒ 100% = 400

Therefore,  400 candidates appeared for the examination.

Question no – (16) 

Solution : 

Since, 28 students speak English, and 20 Speak only English,

Therefore,

(a) students speak both Languages.

=  28 – 20

= 8

(b) Total students in the class.

= Number of students in the class = number of students who speak Hindi  + number of students who speak only English

40 + 20

= 60

Question no – (17) 

Solution : 

(a) Number of students who play only football,

= no of students who play football – no of students who play both

= 200 – 70

= 130

(b) Number of students who play only cricket,

= 150 – 70

= 80

Question no – (18) 

Solution : 

(a) P, Q, R

= P = {a, b, c, d, e)}

= Q = {a, e, i, o, u}

= R = {d, e, f, g, h, i}

(b) P – Q

= P – Q

= {b, c, d}

(c) Q – R

= Q – R

= {a, o, u}

(d) P ∩ Q ∩ R

= P ∩ Q ∩  R

= {e}

(e) (P  Q  R)

= (P ∪ Q ∪ R)

= {k}

(f) (P ∩ Q)  ( Q ∩ R)  (P ∩ R)

= {a, e} ∪ {e, i} ∪ {d, e)}

= {a, e, d, i}
