Let $Z$ be the set of integers. If $A = {x \in Z : 2(x + 2) (x^2 - 5x + 6) = 1}$ and $B = {x \in Z : -3 < 2x - 1 < 9}$, then the number of subsets of the set $A \times B$, is
(A) $2^{12}$
(B) $2^{18}$
(C) $2^{10}$
(D) $2^{15}$
Correct Answer: D
Explanation
Given $A = {x \in Z : 2(x+2)(x^2 - 5x + 6) = 1}$.
Since $2(x+2)(x^2 - 5x + 6) = 1$, we can rewrite it as $2(x+2)(x^2 - 5x + 6) = 2^0$.
This implies that $x = -2, 2, 3$, so $A = {-2, 2, 3}$.
Also, $B = {x \in Z : -3 < 2x - 1 < 9}$.
Adding 1 to all sides, we get $-2 < 2x < 10$.
Dividing by 2, we get $-1 < x < 5$.
Thus, $B = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4}$.
Now, $A \times B$ has $3 \times 5 = 15$ elements.
The number of subsets of $A \times B$ is $2^{15}$.

In a survey of 220 students of a higher secondary school, it was found that at least 125 and at most 130 students studied Mathematics; at least 85 and at most 95 studied Physics; at least 75 and at most 90 studied Chemistry; 30 studied both Physics and Chemistry; 50 studied both Chemistry and Mathematics; 40 studied both Mathematics and Physics and 10 studied none of these subjects. Let $m$ and $n$ respectively be the least and the most number of students who studied all the three subjects. Then $\mathrm{m}+\mathrm{n}$ is equal to ___________.
