Suppose that the number of elements in set A is p , the number of elements in set B is q and the number of elements in A B is 7 , then p^2+q^2=
Options
- A50
- B51
- C42
- D49
Correct answer
A. 50
Step-by-step solution
Given, n(A)=p, n(B)=q and n(A B)=7 Since, n(A B)=n(A) n(B) 7=p q p q=7 So, possible values of p and q are 7,1 respectively. p^2+q^2=7^2+1^2=49+1=50
