JEE Main 2022Basic of Mathematics Question with Solution

JEE Main 2022 (28 Jul Shift 2)

Question

Let S=x-6,3--2,2:x+3-1x-20 and T=xZ:x2-7x+90. Then the number of elements in ST is

Choose an option

Show full solutionCorrect option: D
Correct answer
D3

Step-by-step explanation

Given, x2-7x+90

x7±132

x7-132,7+132

Also given xIntegers, so x can be ±2, ±3, ±4, ±5

Now out of these values of x only 3, -4, -5 will satisfy S=x+3-1x-20

So, ST 3, -4, -5

So, nST=3
