Q51
Let X=R×R\mathrm{X}=\mathbf{R} \times \mathbf{R}. Define a relation R on X as : (a1,b1)R(a2,b2)b1=b2\left(a_1, b_1\right) R\left(a_2, b_2\right) \Leftrightarrow b_1=b_2 Statement I: R\quad \mathrm{R} is an equivalence relation. Statement II : For some (a,b)X(\mathrm{a}, \mathrm{b}) \in \mathrm{X}, the setS={(x,y)X:(x,y)R(a,b)}\operatorname{set} \mathrm{S}=\{(x, y) \in \mathrm{X}:(x, y) \mathrm{R}(\mathrm{a}, \mathrm{b})\} represents a line parallel to y=xy=x. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :
A Both Statement I and Statement II are true
B Statement I is true but Statement II is false
C Both Statement I and Statement II are false
D Statement I is false but Statement II is true
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

Statement - I : Reflexive : (a1,b1)R(a1,b1)b1=b1\left(a_1, b_1\right) R\left(a_1, b_1\right) \Rightarrow b_1=b_1 \quad True  Symmetric : (a1, b1)R(a2, b2)b1=b2(a2, b2)R(a1, b1)b2=b1}\left.\begin{array}{rl}\text{ Symmetric : } & \left(\mathrm{a}_1, \mathrm{~b}_1\right) \mathrm{R}\left(\mathrm{a}_2, \mathrm{~b}_2\right) \Rightarrow \mathrm{b}_1=\mathrm{b}_2 \\ & \left(\mathrm{a}_2, \mathrm{~b}_2\right) \mathrm{R}\left(\mathrm{a}_1, \mathrm{~b}_1\right) \Rightarrow \mathrm{b}_2=\mathrm{b}_1\end{array}\right\} True  Transitive: (a1,b1)R(a2,b2)b1=b2&(a2,b2)R(a3,b3)b2=b3}b1=b3\left.\begin{array}{ll}\text{ Transitive: } & \left(a_1, b_1\right) R\left(a_2, b_2\right) \Rightarrow b_1=b_2 \\ & \&\left(a_2, b_2\right) R\left(a_3, b_3\right) b_2=b_3\end{array}\right\} b_1=b_3

(a1, b1)R(a3 b3) True \Rightarrow\left(\mathrm{a}_1, \mathrm{~b}_1\right) \mathrm{R}\left(\mathrm{a}_3 \cdot \mathrm{~b}_3\right) \Rightarrow \text{ True }

Hence Relation RR is an equivence relation Statement-I is true.

For statement - II y=b\Rightarrow \mathrm{y}=\mathrm{b} so False

Q52
The number of non-empty equivalence relations on the set {1,2,3}\{1,2,3\} is :
A 7
B 4
C 5
D 6
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

An equivalence relation on a finite set is uniquely determined by its partition into equivalence classes.

Hence, counting the number of equivalence relations on a set is equivalent to counting the number of ways to partition that set.

Step: Counting partitions of {1,2,3}\{1,2,3\} We want all possible ways to split the set {1,2,3}\{1,2,3\} into nonempty subsets (its “blocks”). 3 blocks (each element in its own block) {{1},{2},{3}}. \{\{1\}, \{2\}, \{3\}\}. 2 blocks {{1,2},{3}}\{\{1,2\}, \{3\}\} {{1,3},{2}}\{\{1,3\}, \{2\}\} {{2,3},{1}}\{\{2,3\}, \{1\}\} 1 block (all elements together) {{1,2,3}}. \{\{1,2,3\}\}. Counting these, there are a total of 5 distinct partitions, and thus 5 equivalence relations on the set {1,2,3}\{1,2,3\}.

All equivalence relations are automatically nonempty (they include at least (1,1),(2,2),(3,3)(1,1), (2,2), (3,3) because they are reflexive), so the answer to “the number of nonempty equivalence relations” is also 5.

Answer: Option C (5)

Q53
Let A={2,1,0,1,2,3}A=\{-2,-1,0,1,2,3\}. Let R be a relation on AA defined by xRyx \mathrm{R} y if and only if y=max{x,1}y=\max \{x, 1\}. Let ll be the number of elements in R . Let mm and nn be the minimum number of elements required to be added in R to make it reflexive and symmetric relations, respectively. Then l+m+nl+m+n is equal to
A 11
B 12
C 14
D 13
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

To solve the problem, we start by defining the set A={2,1,0,1,2,3}A = \{-2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3\} and the relation RR on set AA, where an element xx is related to yy (written as xRyx \, R \, y) if and only if y=max{x,1}y = \max\{x, 1\}.

This leads us to the following pairs in the relation RR: For x=2x = -2, y=max{2,1}=1y = \max\{-2, 1\} = 1, so (2,1)(-2, 1) is in RR.

For x=1x = -1, y=max{1,1}=1y = \max\{-1, 1\} = 1, so (1,1)(-1, 1) is in RR.

For x=0x = 0, y=max{0,1}=1y = \max\{0, 1\} = 1, so (0,1)(0, 1) is in RR.

For x=1x = 1, y=max{1,1}=1y = \max\{1, 1\} = 1, so (1,1)(1, 1) is in RR.

For x=2x = 2, y=max{2,1}=2y = \max\{2, 1\} = 2, so (2,2)(2, 2) is in RR.

For x=3x = 3, y=max{3,1}=3y = \max\{3, 1\} = 3, so (3,3)(3, 3) is in RR.

Thus, the relation RR consists of the pairs: {(2,1),(1,1),(0,1),(1,1),(2,2),(3,3)}\{(-2, 1), (-1, 1), (0, 1), (1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3)\}, and there are l=6l = 6 elements in RR.

Making the Relation Reflexive A relation is reflexive if every element in the set AA relates to itself.

Therefore, the missing reflexive pairs are: (2,2)(-2, -2) (1,1)(-1, -1) (0,0)(0, 0) Adding these three pairs will make the relation reflexive, so m=3m = 3.

Making the Relation Symmetric A relation is symmetric if whenever (x,y)(x, y) is in RR, (y,x)(y, x) must also be in RR.

Therefore, the missing symmetric pairs are: (1,2)(1, -2) (1,1)(1, -1) (1,0)(1, 0) Thus, we need to add these three pairs for symmetry, so n=3n = 3.

Finally, we calculate the sum l+m+n=6+3+3=12l + m + n = 6 + 3 + 3 = 12.

Q54
Consider the sets A={(x,y)R×R:x2+y2=25},B={(x,y)R×R:x2+9y2=144}A=\left\{(x, y) \in \mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R}: x^2+y^2=25\right\}, B=\left\{(x, y) \in \mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R}: x^2+9 y^2=144\right\}, C={(x,y)Z×Z:x2+y24}C=\left\{(x, y) \in \mathbb{Z} \times \mathbb{Z}: x^2+y^2 \leq 4\right\} and D=ABD=A \cap B. The total number of one-one functions from the set DD to the set CC is:
A 15120
B 18290
C 17160
D 19320
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution
A={(x,y)R×R:x2+y2=25},B={(x,y)R×R:x2+9y2=144}x2+9y2(x2+y2)=14425 Plug in y2=1198 into either equation to find x.x2=251198x2=2001198x2=818x=±818,y=±1198\begin{aligned} & A=\left\{(x, y) \in R \times R: x^2+y^2=25\right\}, B=\{(x, y) \in \mathbb{R} \times \\ & \left.\mathbb{R}: x^2+9 y^2=144\right\} \\ & x^2+9 y^2-\left(x^2+y^2\right)=144-25 \\ & \text{ Plug in } y^2=\frac{119}{8} \text{ into either equation to find } x . \\ & x^2=25-\frac{119}{8} \\ & x^2=\frac{200-119}{8} \\ & x^2=\frac{81}{8} \\ & x= \pm \sqrt{\frac{81}{8}}, y= \pm \sqrt{\frac{119}{8}} \end{aligned}

Now, C={(x,y)Z×Z:x2+y24}C=\left\{(x, y) \in \mathbb{Z} \times \mathbb{Z}: x^2+y^2 \leq 4\right\} Valid points are (2,0),(1,1),(1,0),(1,1)(-2,0),(-1,-1),(-1,0),(-1,1), (0,2),(0,1),(0,0),(0,1),(0,2),(1,1),(1,0)(0,-2),(0,-1),(0,0),(0,1),(0,2),(1,-1),(1,0), (1,1)(1,1) \therefore Total valid points in C=13C=13 \Rightarrow \quad There are 4 distinct real points in set DD \therefore \quad The number of one-one functions from DD to CC

13P413!(134)!=13!9!=17160\Rightarrow \quad 13 P_4 \Rightarrow \frac{13!}{(13-4)!}=\frac{13!}{9!}=17160

Required

 Sum =1+(25)1+(25)2+(25)3+..=1125=53\text{ Sum }=1+\left(\frac{2}{5}\right)^1+\left(\frac{2}{5}\right)^2+\left(\frac{2}{5}\right)^3+\ldots . .-=\frac{1}{1-\frac{2}{5}}=\frac{5}{3}

Elements to be added to

RR

to make it symmetric

(1,2)R(2,1)(1,2) \in R \quad \Rightarrow \quad(2,1)

should be added Similarly,

(3,1),(4,1),(5,1),(3,2),(4,2),(5,2),(4,3),(5,3)(3,1),(4,1),(5,1),(3,2),(4,2),(5,2),(4,3), (5,3)
9\therefore 9

elements should be added

n=9m+n=25\begin{array}{ll} \therefore & n=9 \\ \therefore & m+n=25 \end{array}
Q57
If A,BA, B and CC are three sets such that AB=ACA \cap B=A \cap C and AB=ACA \cup B=A \cup C, then :
A A=CA=C
B B=CB=C
C AB=ϕA \cap B=\phi
D A=BA=B
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

From the given conditions, we have : A ∩ B = A ∩ C : The intersection of set A with set B is the same as the intersection of set A with set C.

This indicates that all elements common to A and B are also common to A and C, and vice versa.

A ∪ B = A ∪ C : The union of set A with set B is the same as the union of set A with set C.

This indicates that all elements in A, B, and C are the same.

From these two conditions, we can infer that set B is equal to set C because every element of B is also an element of C and vice versa.

Hence, Option B : B = C is the correct answer.

Q58
Let R\mathrm{R} be a relation on N×N\mathrm{N} \times \mathbb{N} defined by (a,b) R (c,d)(a, b) ~\mathrm{R}~(c, d) if and only if ad(bc)=bc(ad)a d(b-c)=b c(a-d). Then R\mathrm{R} is
A symmetric and transitive but not reflexive
B reflexive and symmetric but not transitive
C transitive but neither reflexive nor symmetric
D symmetric but neither reflexive nor transitive
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

Given, (a,b)R(c,d)ad(bc)=bc(ad)(a, b) R(c, d) \Rightarrow a d(b-c)=b c(a-d) Symmetric : (c, d) R(a,b)cb(da)=da(cb)R(a, b) \Rightarrow \operatorname{cb}(\mathrm{d}-\mathrm{a})=\mathrm{da}(\mathrm{c}-\mathrm{b}) \Rightarrow Symmetric.

Reflexive : (a, b) R (a, b) ab(ba)ba(ab)\Rightarrow a b(b-a) \neq b a(a-b) \Rightarrow Not reflexive.

Transitive : (2,3)R(3,2)(2,3) \mathrm{R}(3,2) and (3,2)R(5,30)(3,2) \mathrm{R}(5,30) but ((2,3),(5,30))R((2,3),(5,30)) \notin \mathrm{R} \Rightarrow Not transitive.

Q59
Let R={(1,2),(2,3),(3,3)}\mathrm{R}=\{(1,2),(2,3),(3,3)\} be a relation defined on the set {1,2,3,4}\{1,2,3,4\}. Then the minimum number of elements, needed to be added in R so that R becomes an equivalence relation, is:
A 9
B 8
C 7
D 10
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution
A={1,2,3,4}\mathrm{A}=\{1,2,3,4\}

For relation to be reflexive

R={(1,2),(2,3),(3,3)}\mathrm{R}=\{(1,2),(2,3),(3,3)\}

Minimum elements added will be

(1,1),(2,2),(4,4)(2,1)(3,2)(3,2)(3,1)(1,3) Minimum number of elements =7\begin{aligned} & (1,1),(2,2),(4,4)(2,1)(3,2)(3,2)(3,1)(1,3) \\ & \therefore \text{ Minimum number of elements }=7 \end{aligned}
Q60
Two newspapers A and B are published in a city. It is known that 25% of the city populations reads A and 20% reads B while 8% reads both A and B. Further, 30% of those who read A but not B look into advertisements and 40% of those who read B but not A also look into advertisements, while 50% of those who read both A and B look into advertisements. Then the percentage of the population who look into advertisement is :-
A 13.5
B 13
C 12.8
D 13.9
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

The total population to be 100 (for simplicity's sake) and the percentages can be treated as actual numbers of people in this context.

The percentage of people who read newspaper A is given as 25.

However, among these, there are people who read both newspapers A and B, given as 8.

To find the number of people who read only newspaper A, we subtract the number of people who read both from the total number of people who read A.

That is, n(A only) = 25 – 8 = 17 Similarly, the number of people who read only newspaper B is calculated as : n(B only) = 20 – 8 = 12 Now, we are given the percentage of each of these groups that look into the advertisements: 30% of those who read A but not B, 40% of those who read B but not A, 50% of those who read both A and B.

To find the total percentage of the population that looks into advertisements, we add up the contributions from each of these groups.

We calculate each group's contribution by multiplying the size of the group by the percentage of that group that looks at advertisements : =

30100×17{{30} \over {100}} \times 17

(from A only) +

40100×12{{40} \over {100}} \times 12

(from B only) +

50100×8{{50} \over {100}} \times 8

(from both A and B) = 5.1 (from A only) + 4.8 (from B only) + 4 (from both A and B) Adding these up, we get = 13.9 This means that 13.9% of the total population looks into the advertisements.

So, the correct answer is : Option D : 13.9.
