Preface
Mathematics is not just a subject that is restricted to the four walls of a classroom. Its philosophy and
applications are to be looked for in the daily course of our life. The knowledge of mathematics is essential
for us, to explore and practice in a variety of fields like business administration, banking, stock exchange and
in science and engineering.
With the same thought in mind, we present to you “Std. XI Commerce: Mathematics and Statistics-I” a
complete and thorough book with a revolutionary fresh approach towards content and thus laying a platform
for an in depth understanding of the subject. This book has been written according to the revised syllabus.
At the beginning of every chapter, topic–wise distribution of all textual questions including practice
problems have been provided for simpler understanding of different types of questions. Neatly labelled
diagrams have been provided wherever required. We have provided answer keys for all the textual questions
and miscellaneous exercises. In addition to this, we have included practice problems based upon solved
exercises which not only aid students in self evaluation but also provide them with plenty of practice. We’ve
also ensured that each chapter ends with a set of Multiple Choice Questions so as to prepare students for
competitive examinations.
We are sure this study material will turn out to be a powerful resource for students and facilitate them in
understanding the concepts of Mathematics in the most simple way.
The journey to create a complete book is strewn with triumphs, failures and near misses. If you think we’ve
nearly missed something or want to applaud us for our triumphs, we’d love to hear from you.
Please write to us on: mail@targetpublications.org

Best of luck to all the aspirants!

Syllabus: Methods of Representation of Sets
1.1 Sets There are two methods of representing a set which
1.2 Types of sets are as follows:
i. Roster method (Listing method):
1.3 Algebra of sets
In this method all the elements are listed or
1.4 Intervals tabulated. The elements are separated by
1.5 Cartesian product of sets commas and are enclosed within two
1.6 Relations braces(curly brackets).
Example:
1.7 Functions
The set A of all positive even integers less
1.8 Particular types of functions and their than 9 can be written as A = {2, 4, 6, 8}.
graphs
ii. Set-Builder method:
1.9 Composite function
In this method, the set is described by the
1.10 Inverse function characteristic property of its elements.
1.11 Functions in Economics In general, if all the elements of set A satisfy
1.12 Some more functions and their graphs some property P, then write A in set-builder
notation as A = {x/x has property P} and read
Introduction it as ‘A is the set of all x such that x has the
property P’.
All basic concepts of modern mathematics are based Example:
on set theory. The concepts involving logic can be Let B = {3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}
explained more easily with the help of set theory. Using the set-builder method, B can be written
It plays a crucial role in the study of relations, as B = {x/x  N, 3  x  8}
functions, probability and is used extensively in Since B = {3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8} can also be stated
as the set of natural numbers from 3 to 8
various other branches of mathematics. We shall including 3 and 8.
briefly revise and study some more concepts about
sets. Some standard sets are as follows:
N = set of all natural numbers
1.1 Sets = {1, 2, 3,…..}

A set is a well-defined collection of objects. These Z or I = set of all integers


objects may be actually listed or may be specified by = { ….3, 2, 1, 0, 1, 2, 3 …}
a rule. A set is usually denoted by the capital letters
Q = set of all rational numbers
A, B, C, N, R, etc. Each object in a set is called an
p 
element or a member of the set and is denoted by the =  / p,q  Z,q  0 
small letters a, b, c, etc. q 

If x is an element of set A, then we write it as x  A 1.2 Types of sets


and read it as ‘x belongs to A’ and if y is not an 1. Empty set:
element of set A, then we write it as y  A and read A set which does not contain any element is
it as ‘y does not belong to A’. called an empty set and it is denoted by  or
Example: { }. It is also called null set.
Example:
If A = {2, 4, 6, 8}, then 4  A, 7  A, 8  A,
A = {x/x  N, 3 < x < 4}
10  A
B = {x/x is a positive integer < 1}
The set of natural numbers, whole numbers, integers, Note:
rational numbers and real numbers are denoted by N, The set {0} and {} are not empty sets as they
W, I, Q and R respectively. contain one element, namely 0 and  respectively.

2. Singleton set: Note:
A set which contains only one element is i. Every set is a subset of itself.
called a singleton set. ii. Empty set is a subset of every set.
Example:  A and  are improper subsets of A.
A = {5}, 7. Universal set:
B = {3}, A non-empty set of which all the sets under
X = {x/x  N, 1 < x < 3} consideration are subsets, is called a universal
The set A = set of all integers which are set. It is usually denoted by X or U.
neither positive nor negative is a singleton set Example:
since A = {0} If A = {1, 2, 3, 4}, B = {2, 8, 13, 15} and
C = {1, 2, 3, …, 50} are sets under
3. Finite set: consideration, then the set N of all natural
A set which contains countable number of numbers can be taken as the universal set.
elements is called a finite set.
Example: Venn diagram:
A = {a, b, c} A set is represented by any closed figure such as
B = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} circle, rectangle, triangle, etc. The diagrams
C = {a, e, i, o, u} representing sets are called venn diagrams.
Example:
4. Infinite set: .4 A
i. A = {4, 6, 9}
A set which contains uncountable number of .6 .9
elements is called an infinite set.
Example: A
ii. A = {a, b, c, d, e, f} B .a
N = {1, 2, 3, 4……} .b
B = {b, e, f} .c
Z = {…3, 2, 1, 0, 1, 2, 3,…..} BA .e .f .d
5. Subset:
Set A is called a subset of set B, if every 8. Equal sets:
element of set A is also an element of set B Two sets A and B are said to be equal if they
i.e., if x  A, then x  B. have the same elements and we denote this as
We denote this relation as A  B and read it as A = B.
‘A is a subset for B’. It s clear that From this definition it follows that “two sets A
i. Every set is a subset of itself i.e., A  A. and B are equal if and only if A  B
ii. An empty set  is a subset of every set. and B  A”
Example: Example:
If A = {2, 4, 6, 8} and B = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12}, If A = {1, 2, 3, 4}, B = {2, 4, 1, 3}, then
A = B.
then A  B.
If A  B, then B is called a superset of A, 9. Complement of a set:
denoted by B  A. Let A be a subset of a universal set X then the
set of all those elements of X which do not
6. Proper subset: belong to A is called the complement of set A
A set A is said to be a proper subset of a set B and it is denoted by A or Ac.
if every element of set A is also an element of Thus, A = {x/x  X, x  A}
the set B and B contains atleast one element
which is not in A. We denote it by A  B. X
Example:
1. A = {x/x is a natural number less than 5} A
 A = {1, 2, 3, 4} A
2. B = {x/x is a divisor of 12}
 B = {1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12} The shaded region in the above figure

X Distributive Properties of union and intersection


A B If a, b, c  R, then
a  (b + c) = (a  b) + (a  c)
This is known as distributive property of
AB multiplication over addition.
Example: In set theory, the operation of union and intersection
i. If A = {1, 2, 3, 4}, B = {2, 4, 6, 8}, of sets are both distributive over each other i.e.,
then A  B = {1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8} If A, B, C are any three sets, then
ii. If A is the set of all odd integers and B i. A  (B  C) = (A  B)  (A  C)
is the set of all even integers, then ii. A  (B  C) = (A  B)  (A  C)
A  B is the set of all integers. We verify these distributive laws using Venn
diagrams shown below. The shaded portion in each

2. Intersection of sets: =
If A and B are two sets, then the set of those
elements which belong to both A and B i.e., B C B C
which are common to both A and B is called
the intersection of the sets A and B and is
A  (B  C) (A  B)  (A  C)
denoted by A  B.

De Morgan’s laws Example:
If A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, B = {2, 4, 6, 8}, then
If A and B are two subsets of a universal set X, then
A  B = {1, 3, 5} and B  A = {8}
i. (A  B) = A  B
ii. (A  B) = A  B Note:
We verify these laws using Venn diagrams shown i. The sets A  B, A  B, B – A are mutually
below. The shaded portion in each figure shows the disjoint sets i.e. the intersection of any of these
set obtained by performing the operation below the two sets is the null (empty) set.

X X Number of elements in a set:
A B = A B Let A be a set. Then the total number of elements in it
is denoted by n(A).
Example:
(A  B) A  B Let A = {8, 9, 10, 11, 12}
X X  n (A) = 5
ii. A A The number of elements in the empty set  is zero.
B = B
i.e., n () = 0
Results:
(A  B) A  B
For given sets A, B
Disjoint sets: 1. n(A  B) = n(A) + n(B) – n(A  B)
Two sets A and B are said to be disjoint, if they have 2. When A and B are disjoint sets then
no element in common i.e., A  B = . n(A  B) = n(A) + n(B)
Example: 3. n(A – B) + n(A  B) = n(A)
If A = {2, 4, 6} and B = {3, 5, 7}, then A  B =  4. n(B – A) + n(A  B) = n(B)
 A and B are disjoint sets. 5. n(A – B) + n(A  B) + n(B – A) = n(A  B)
The venn diagram of the disjoint sets A and B is 6. For any sets A, B, C
shown below: n(A  B  C) = n(A) +n(B) + n(C) – n(A  B)
X  n(B  C) – n(A  C) + n(A  B  C)
Power set:
A B The set of all subsets of set A is called the power set
of A and it is denoted by P(A).
Example:
AB= If A = {a, b, c}, then
P(A) ={, {a}, {b}, {c}, {a, b}, {b, c}, {a, c},
3. Difference of sets:
{a, b, c}}
If A and B are two sets then the set of all the
elements of A which are not in B is called Note:
difference of sets A and B and is denoted by If A contains n elements, then the power set of A
A  B. i.e., P(A) contains 2n elements.
Thus, A  B = {x/x  A and x  B}
Similarly, B  A = {x/x  A and x  B} 1.4 Intervals
