Let and be two finite sets with and elements respectively. The total number of subsets of the set is 56 more than the total number of subsets of . Then the distance of the point from the point is :
- A8
- B10
- C4
- D6
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: B
- Use the formula for number of subsets
If a finite set has elements, then the total number of subsets is:
So for sets and :
- Number of subsets of
- Number of subsets of
Given: or
- Factor the expression
Assume (since has more subsets than ):
Now,
Since is odd, it must divide the odd part of , i.e. .
Thus: So,
Then:
Hence:
So the point is:
- Find distance from
Distance formula:
- Check options
The correct option is: So, Option B is correct.
