Let R 1 and R 2 be relations on the set 1 , 2 , … , 50 such that R 1 = { p , p n : p is a prime and n…

Let R1 and R2 be relations on the set 1,2,,50 such that R1={p,pn:p is a prime and n0 is an integer} and R2={p,pn:p is a prime and n=0 or 1}. Then, the number of elements in R1-R2 is ____.

Solution

Here, p,pn1,2,50

Now p can take values

2,3,5,7,11,13,17,23,29,31,37,41,43 and 47.

 R1={2,20,2,212,25,3,30,3,33,5,50,5,52,7,70,7,72,11,110,11,111,...47,470,47,471}

R2=2,20,2,21,3,30,3,31....47,470,47,471

Now R1-R2R1R2'

So R1-R2=2,22,2,23,2,24,2,25,3,32,3,33,5,52,7,72

 nR1-R2=8
