C.
D.
E.

Q2
Solution: B
A = {1, 3, 5, 7, 9 }
B = {2, 4, 6, 8}
= {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 } = set of natural numbers.

Q9
Solution: D
A. True. The truth of P is sufficient for, guarantees the truth of Q.
B. True. If Q is not true, then P is not true. The falsity of Q rules out the truth of P. It is necessary
for Q to be true in order for P to be true.
C. True. The truth of P is necessary in order for Q to be true. When P is not true, Q is not true.
D. False. The truth of P does not guarantee the truth of Q. All we know is that the falsity of P
guarantees the falsity of Q.
E. True. If anything fails to be male or fails to be a sibling, then it is not a brother. So being a
male sibling is a necessary condition for being a brother. Furthermore, it is impossible for
anything to be a male sibling and not to be a brother. So being a male sibling is a sufficient
condition for being a brother.

Q13
Solution: D




Therefore,

Q14
Solution: B
There are infinite number of rational and irrational numbers between 0 and 1.

Q15
Solution: C
P(A) = 0.4 , P(B) = 0.2, P(C) = 0.1
P(A B) = 0.05, P(B C) = 0.03, P(A C) = 0.04
P (A B C) = 0.02
P(A only) = P(A) P(A B) P(A C) + P (A B C)
P(A only) = 0.40 0.05 0.04 + 0.02 = 0.33
Therefore, number of families which buy A only = 10,000 0.33 = 3300

Q29
Solution: A
Given,
{ }
then, .

Q30
Solution: B
(A B) = A + B (A B)
(A U B) = 40 + 70 15 = 95%
i.e. 95% of the students have enrolled for at least one of the two subjects Math or Economics.
Therefore, the balance (100 - 95)% = 5% of the students have not enrolled for either of the two
subjects.
