Maharashtra Board Solutions Class 9-Maths (Part 1): Chapter 1.2- Sets

Maharashtra Board 9th Maths Chapter 1.2, Class 9 Maths Chapter 1.2 solutions

Question 1.
Decide which of the following are equal sets and which are not ? Justify your answer.
A= {x | 3x – 1 = 2}
B = {x | x is a natural number but x is neither prime nor composite}
C = {x | x e N, x < 2}
Solution:
A= {x | 3x – 1 = 2}
Here, 3x – 1 = 2
∴ 3x = 3
∴ x = 1
∴ A = {1} …(i)

B = {x | x is a natural number but x is neither prime nor composite}
1 is the only number which is neither prime nor composite,
∴ x = 1
∴ B = {1} …(ii)

C = {x | x G N, x < 2}
1 is the only natural number less than 2.
∴ x = 1
∴ C = {1} …(iii)
∴ The element in sets A, B and C is identical. … [From (i), (ii) and (iii)]
∴ A, B and C are equal sets.

Question 2.
Decide whether set A and B are equal sets. Give reason for your answer.
A = Even prime numbers
B = {x | 7x – 1 = 13}
Solution:
A = Even prime numbers
Since 2 is the only even prime number,
∴ A = {2} …(i)
B= {x | 7x – 1 = 13}
Here, 7x – 1 = 13
∴ 7x = 14
∴ x = 2
∴ B = {2} …(ii)
∴ The element in set A and B is identical. … [From (i) and (ii)]
∴ A and B are equal sets.

Question 3.
Which of the following are empty sets? Why?
i. A = {a | a is a natural number smaller than zero}
ii. B = {x | x² = 0}
iii. C = {x | 5x – 2 = 0, x ∈N}
Solution:
i. A = {a| a is a natural number smaller than zero}
Natural numbers begin from 1.
∴ A = { }
∴ A is an empty set.

ii. B = {x | x² = 0}
Here, x² = 0
∴ x = 0 … [Taking square root on both sides]
∴ B = {0}
∴B is not an empty set.

iii. C = {x | 5x – 2 = 0, x ∈ N}
Here, 5x – 2 = 0
∴ 5x = 2
∴ x = 25
Given, x ∈ N
But, x = 25 is not a natural number.
∴ C = { }
∴ C is an empty set.

Question 4.
Write with reasons, which of the following sets are finite or infinite.
i. A = {x | x<10, xisa natural number}
ii. B = {y | y < -1, y is an integer}
iii. C = Set of students of class 9 from your school.
iv. Set of people from your village.
v. Set of apparatus in laboratory
vi. Set of whole numbers
vii. Set of rational number
Solution:
i. A={x| x < 10, x is a natural number}
∴ A = {1,2, 3,4, 5,6, 7, 8, 9}
The number of elements in A are limited and can be counted.
∴A is a finite set.

ii. B = (y | y < -1, y is an integer}
∴ B = { …,-4, -3, -2}
The number of elements in B are unlimited and uncountable.
∴ B is an infinite set.

iii. C = Set of students of class 9 from your school.
The number of students in a class is limited and can be counted.
∴ C is a finite set.

iv. Set of people from your village.
The number of people in a village is limited and can be counted.
∴ Given set is a finite set.

v. Set of apparatus in laboratory
The number of apparatus in the laboratory are limited and can be counted.
∴ Given set is a finite set.

vi. Set of whole numbers
The number of elements in the set of whole numbers are unlimited and uncountable.
∴ Given set is an infinite set.

vii. Set of rational number
The number of elements in the set of rational numbers are unlimited and uncountable.
∴ Given set is an infinite set.

Question 1.
If A = {1, 2, 3} and B = {1, 2, 3, 4}, then A ≠ B verify it. (Textbook pg. no. 6)
Answer:
Here, 4 ∈ B but 4 ∉ A
∴ A and B are not equal sets,
i.e. A ≠ B

Question 2.
A = {x | x is prime number and 10 < x < 20} and B = {11,13,17,19}. Here A = B. Verify. (Textbook pg. no. 6)
Answer:
A = {x | x is prime number and 10 < x < 20}
∴ A = {11, 13, 17, 19}
B = {11, 13, 17, 19}
∴ All the elements in set A and B are identical.
∴ A and B are equal sets, i.e. A = B

The Maharashtra State Board of Secondary & Higher Secondary Education (MSBSHSE), Pune is an independent body of the Maharashtra Government. There are more than 1.4 million students that appear in the examination every year. The Maha State Board conducts the board examination twice a year. This board conducts the examination for SSC and HSC. 

The Maharashtra government established the Maharashtra State Bureau of Textbook Production and Curriculum Research, also commonly referred to as Ebalbharati, in 1967 to take up the responsibility of providing quality textbooks to students from all classes studying under the Maharashtra State Board. MSBHSE prepares and updates the curriculum to provide holistic development for students. It is designed to tackle the difficulty in understanding the concepts with simple language with simple illustrations. Every year around 10 lakh students are enrolled in schools that are affiliated with the Maharashtra State Board.
