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

1 answer:

6 0

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.

(−5)3x7(yz)4 / (3)2x2y8z2

g100num [7]

Answer:

$\dfrac{(-5)3x^7(yz)^4}{(3)2x^2y^8z^2}=\dfrac{-5x^5z^2}{2y^4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The expression to simplify is given as:

$\frac{(-5)3x^7(yz)^4}{(3)2x^2y^8z^2}$

In order to simplify this, we have to use the law of indices.

1. $(ab)^m=a^mb^m$

So, $(yz)^4=y^4z^4$

Substitute this value in the above expression. This gives,

$=\dfrac{(-5)3x^7y^4z^4}{(3)2x^2y^8z^2}\\\\\\=\dfrac{-15x^7y^4z^4}{6x^2y^8z^2}......(-5\times 3=15\ and\ 3\times 2=6)$

Now, we use another law of indices.

2. $\frac{a^m}{a^n}=a^{m-n}$

So, $\frac{x^7}{x^2}=x^{7-2}=x^5,\frac{y^4}{y^8}=y^{4-8}=y^{-4}, \frac{z^4}{z^2}=z^{4-2}=z^2$

Substitute these values in the above expression. This gives,

$=\frac{-15}{6}\times x^5\times y^{-4}\times z^2\\\\=\frac{-5x^5y^{-4}z^2}{2}$

Finally, we further simplify it using the law $a^{-m}=\frac{1}{a^m}$

So, $y^{-4}=\frac{1}{y^4}$

Therefore, the given expression is simplified as:

$\dfrac{(-5)3x^7(yz)^4}{(3)2x^2y^8z^2}=\dfrac{-5x^5z^2}{2y^4}$

What is the length of the base of a right triangle with an area of 20 square meters and a height of 4 meters? 5 m 10 m 80 m 160

o-na [289]

You find the area of a triangle by using 1/2*b*h where b is the base and h is the height. since we already know the area is 20 and the height is for you plus them in so the problem would be 20= 1/2 (b) (4) then you multiply what you know together to get 20= 2b and then isolate the b by dividing both sides by two so the base should be 10 m

PLZ HELP, AND PLZ EXPLAIN

shutvik [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To make it easy let's start by organizing our information :

AC=12 AND BD=8
ABCD is a rhombus
K and L are the midpoints of sides AD and CD
we notice that the rhombus ABCD is divided into four right triangles

What do you think of when you hear a right triangle ?

The pythagorian theorem !

AC and BD are khown so let's focus on them .

If we concentrated we can notice that AB and BD are cossing each other in the midpoints . why ?

Simply because they are the diagonals of a rhombus .

ow let's apply the pythagorian theorem :

(AC/2)² + (BD/2)² = BC²
6²+4²=52
BC²= 52⇒ $\sqrt{52}$ =BC

Now we khow that : AB=BC=CD=AD= $\sqrt{52}$

This isn't enough . Let's try to figure out a way to calculate the length of KL wich is the base of the triangle

KL is parallel to AC
k is the midpoint of AD and L of DC

I smell something . yes! Thales theorem

KL/AC=DL/DC=DK/AD WE4LL TAKE OLY ONE

KL/12= $\sqrt{52}$ /2* $\sqrt{52}$
KL/12=1/2⇒ KL=6

Now we have the length of the base kl

Now the big boss the height :

notice that you khow the length of KL
BD crosses kl from its midpoint and DL = $\sqrt{52}$ /2

What I want to do is to apply the pythgorian thaorem to khow the lenght of that small part that is not a part of the height of the triangle . I will call it D

DL²=(KL/2)²+D²
52/4= 9+ D²
D² = 52/4-9 +4 SO D=2

now the height of the trigle is H= BD-D= 8-2=6

NOw the area of the triangle is :

A=(KL*H)/2 ⇒ A= (6*6)/2=18

THE ANSWER IS 18 SQ.UN
