    Which of the following is the empty set [Karnataka CET 1990]

    A) \[\{x:x\] is a real number and \[{{x}^{2}}-1=0\}\]

    B) {x : x  is a real number and \[{{x}^{2}}+1=0\}\]

    C) {x : x is a real number and \[{{x}^{2}}-9=0\}\]

    D) {x : x is a real number and \[{{x}^{2}}=x+2\}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Since \[{{x}^{2}}+1=0,\] gives \[{{x}^{2}}=-1\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[x=\pm i\] \[\therefore \] x is not real but x is  real (given) \[\therefore \] No value of x is possible.
