(ii) A B∪ = {3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9} ∴ ( )n A B∪ = 7

(iii) A B∩ = {5} ∴ ( )n A B∩ = 1

(iv) ( ) ( )n A B n A B∪ + ∩ = 7 + 1 [from part (ii) and (iii) ] = 8

(v) B C∪ = {2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10} ∴ ( )n B C∪ = 7

B C∩ = {4, 6} and ( )n B C∩ = 2

∴ n(B) + n(C) – ( )n B C∩ = 4 + 5 – 2 = 7

Now, from part (i) and (iv)

Yes, n (A) + n(B) = ( ) ( )n A B n A B∪ + ∩ and from part (v) and (vi)

Yes, ( )n B C∪ = n (B) + n(C) – ( )n B C∩

30. If P = {4, 8, 12, 16, 20}, Q = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 18, 20} and R = {a, b, c, d, e}

State true or false :

(i) n (P) = n (R) (ii) n (P) = n (Q) (iii) n (Q) – n (R) = n (P)

(iv) n (Q) = 2 n (R)

Ans. n (P) = 5, n (Q) = 9 and n (R) = 5

(i) n(P) = n (R) = 5 True.

(ii) n (P) ≠ n (Q) ⇒ 5 ≠ 9 which is false.

(iii) n (Q) – n (R) = n (P)

⇒ 9 – 5 = 5 ⇒ 4 = 5 which is false.

(iv) n (Q) = 2.n (R)

⇒ 9 = 2 (5) ⇒ 9 = 10 which is false.

31. If O = {odd numbers less than 12} and E = {even numbers between 7 and 17}, show

that : n(O) – n(E) = 1.

Ans. Here, O = {1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11} and E = {8, 10, 12, 14, 16}

⇒ n (O) = 6 and n (E) = 5

Subtracting n (O) – n (E) = 6 – 5 = 1 Hence proved.

M}, find P Q∪ and .P Q∩ State whether the sets P and Q are joint or disjoint.

Ans. P = {Jan, Feb, March, April, May, June, July, Aug, Sept., Oct., Nov., Dec.}

Q = {March, May} P Q∪ = {all months of year}, P Q∩ = {March, May}
