Question:
Which of the following is an empty set?
Which of the following is an empty set?
Updated On: May 12, 2024
- $\{ x | x$ is a real number and $x^2 - 1 = 0\}$
- $\{ x | x$ is a real number and $x^2 + 3 = 0\}$
- $\{ x | x$ is a real number and $x^2 - 9 = 0\}$
- $\{ x | x$ is a real number and $x^2= x +2\}$
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
$x^2 + 3 = 0$
$\Rightarrow \, x = \sqrt{-3} \in C$
$\Rightarrow \, x $ is not a real number
$ \therefore$ It is an empty set.
$\Rightarrow \, x = \sqrt{-3} \in C$
$\Rightarrow \, x $ is not a real number
$ \therefore$ It is an empty set.

- Let \[f(x) =\begin{cases} x-1, & x \text{ is even, } \, x \in \mathbb{N}, \\2x, & x \text{ is odd, } \, x \in \mathbb{N}.\end{cases}\]If for some $a \in \mathbb{N}$, $f(f(f(a))) = 21$, then \[\lim_{x \to a^-} \left\{ \frac{|x|^3}{a} - \left\lfloor \frac{x}{a} \right\rfloor \right\},\]where $\lfloor t \rfloor$ denotes the greatest integer less than or equal to $t$, is equal to:
- Let \( \alpha \beta \gamma = 45 \); \( \alpha, \beta, \gamma \in \mathbb{R} \). If \( x(\alpha, 1, 2) + y(1, \beta, 2) + z(2, 3, \gamma) = (0, 0, 0) \) for some \( x, y, z \in \mathbb{R} \), \( xyz \neq 0 \), then \( 6\alpha + 4\beta + \gamma \) is equal to ______.
- Let \( A = \{ n \in [100, 700] \cap \mathbb{N} : n \text{ is neither a multiple of 3 nor a multiple of 4} \} \).
Then the number of elements in \( A \) is: - If \[ S(x) = (1 + x) + 2(1 + x)^2 + 3(1 + x)^3 + \ldots + 60(1 + x)^{60}, \, x \neq 0, \] and \[ (60)^2 S(60) = a(b)^b + b, \] where $a, b \in \mathbb{N}$, then $(a + b)$ is equal to ________.
- If \( f(x) = \frac{4x + 5}{6x - 4}, \, x \neq \frac{2}{3} \) and \( (fof)(x) = g(x) \), where \( g : \mathbb{R} - \left\{ \frac{2}{3} \right\} \rightarrow \mathbb{R} - \left\{ \frac{2}{3} \right\} \), then \( (gogogog)(4) \) is equal to

Concepts Used:
Sets
Set is the collection of well defined objects. Sets are represented by capital letters, eg. A={}. Sets are composed of elements which could be numbers, letters, shapes, etc.
Example of set: Set of vowels A={a,e,i,o,u}
Representation of Sets
There are three basic notation or representation of sets are as follows:
Statement Form: The statement representation describes a statement to show what are the elements of a set.
- For example, Set A is the list of the first five odd numbers.
Roster Form: The form in which elements are listed in set. Elements in the set is seperatrd by comma and enclosed within the curly braces.
- For example represent the set of vowels in roster form.
A={a,e,i,o,u}
Set Builder Form:
- The set builder representation has a certain rule or a statement that specifically describes the common feature of all the elements of a set.
- The set builder form uses a vertical bar in its representation, with a text describing the character of the elements of the set.
- For example, A = { k | k is an even number, k ≤ 20}. The statement says, all the elements of set A are even numbers that are less than or equal to 20.
- Sometimes a ":" is used in the place of the "|".
