The cardinal number of set V is the number of distinct element in it and is denoted by n(V).For example
The vowels in the word DIFFERENTIATE are I, E, E, I, A and E. If we represent the set of vowels in the word DIFFERENTIATE in roster form we have :
P = { I, E, A}
Thus, even thought there are 6 vowels in the word, there are only 3 distinct elements in the set V.
So, cardinal-number n(P) = 3.
Examples :
1) What is the cardinal-number of set A of the composite numbers between 10 and 20?
Solution :
A = { 12,14,15,16,18}
As there are 5 elements in set A.
n(A) = 5.
2) If set C = { x | x is neither a prime nor a composite number}.Find n(C)
Solution :
C = { x | x is neither a prime nor a composite number}
C = {1}
∴ n(C) = 1
3) If J = { 101, 103, 105,107,109}. Find n(J).
Solution :
J = { 101, 103, 105,107,109}
n(J) = 5
4) If B ={ x| x is a letter in the word PENINSULA}. Find n(B).
Solution :
B ={ x| x is a letter in the word PENINSULA}
B = { P, E, N, I, S, U, L, A}
n(B) = 8
5) If E = { a,f,k,p,u,z }. Find n(E).
solution :
E = { a,f,k,p,u,z }
n(E) = 6
6) If Q= { x| 3 < x < 4}. Find n(Q).
Solution :
Q= { x| x ∉ N3 < x < 4}
As there is no element between 3 and 4.
n(Q) = 0
n(Q) = Φ
