Calculate the number of subsets and the number of proper subsets for the set.

A set of n elements has 2ⁿ subsets. One of these subsets is the set itself, so this set would have 2ⁿ - 1 <em>proper</em> subsets.

The given set has 4 elements, so it has 2⁴ = 16 subsets and 2⁴ - 1 = 15 proper subsets.

Just to illustrate the claim, we have

• subsets of size 0 (1 of these):

{ } (empty set)

• subsets of size 1 (4 of these):

{1/6}, {1/7}, {1/8}, {1/9}

• subsets of size 2 (6 of these):

{1/6, 1/7}, {1/6, 1/8}, {1/6, 1/9}, {1/7, 1/8}, {1/7, 1/9}, {1/8, 1/9}

• subsets of size 3 (4 of these):

{1/6, 1/7, 1/8}, {1/6, 1/7, 1/9}, {1/6, 1/8, 1/9}, {1/7, 1/8, 1/9}

• subsets of size 4 (1 of these):

{1/6, 1/7, 1/8, 1/9}

and the last one is the only subset that is not a proper subset, because that subset = the set.

A) x + y = 17
B) x * y = -168

y = -168/x then inputting this into A)

x + -168/x = 17
x^2 -168 -17x = 0

Answer:

EG = 16 and FH =22

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other

so 2a  = 3b+2

and 2a+3 = 6b-1

We know have a system of equations to solve

2a  = 3b+2

 2a+3 = 6b-1

Subtract 3 from each side

2a+3-3 = 6b-1-3

2a = 6b -4

Now we can set the 2 equations equal  ( 2a  = 3b+2  and 2a = 6b -4)

3b+2 = 6b-4

Subtract 3b from each side

3b-3b+2 = 6b-3b-4

2 = 3b-4

Add 4 to each side

2+4 = 3b-4+4

6 = 3b

Divide by 3

6/3 = 3b/3

2 =b

We want to find a

2a  = 3b+2

Substitute in b=2

2a = 3(2) + 2

2a = 6+2

2a =8

Divide by 2

2a/2 =8/2

a = 4

Now that we know a and b

EG = 2a + 3b+2

    = 2(4) + 3(2)+2

   = 8+6+2

   = 16

FH = 2a+3 + 6b-1

    = 2(4) +3 +6(2)-1

    = 8+3+12-1

   = 23-1

  = 22
