Consider the following relation on subsets of the set of integers between 1 and 2014. For two distinct subsets U and V of S we say U < V if the minimum element in the symmetric difference of the two sets is in U. Consider the following two statements: S1: There is a subset of S that is larger than every other subset. S2: There is a subset of S that is smaller than every other subset. Which one of the following is CORRECT?

Both S1 and S2 are true
S1 is true and S2 is false
S2 is true and S1 is false
Neither S1 nor S2 is true

Option 1 : Both S1 and S2 are true

Two distinct subsets U and V of S we say U < V if the minimum element in the symmetric difference of the two sets is in U.

Since: S = {1, 2, 3, ...., 2014}.

Therefore, Subsets {1, 2, 3, …., 2014} and {Ø} of S, so {1, 2, 3, …., 2014} < {Ø} because the minimum element in the symmetric difference (i.e., {1, 2, 3, ...., 2014}) of the two sets is in set {1, 2, 3, ...., 2014}.

Hence, {Ø} is a subset of S that is larger than every other subset. And, {1, 2, 3, …., 2014} is a subset of S that is smaller than every other subset.

Hence, {Ø} is a subset of S that is larger than every other subset.

And, {1, 2, 3, …., 2014} is a subset of S that is smaller than every other subset.
