Answers:

  • a) 2048
  • b) 2047

=============================================================

Explanation:

If a set has n elements inside it, then it has 2^n different subsets.

Consider a set like {a,b,c}. It has n = 3 elements.

It has 2^n = 2^3 = 8 subsets

Those 8 subsets are...

  1. {a,b,c} ..... any set is a subset of itself
  2. {a,b}
  3. {a,c}
  4. {b,c}
  5. {a}
  6. {b}
  7. {c}
  8. { } .... the empty set

As you can see, each subset consists of items that are selected from the original set {a,b,c}. We can't have any repeat letters.

In that list, items 2 through 4 represent subsets with exactly two things inside it. Items 5 through 7 are known as singletons as they only have one item inside each set. The empty set can be written with the symbol \varnothing or you could have a pair of braces with nothing inside them. The empty set is a subset of any set.

--------------

Note how I included {a,b,c} as a subset. Any set is a subset of itself.

A proper subset will ignore the original set and only look at smaller subsets. If we say B is a proper subset of A, then set B will have fewer items compared to set A. Without the "proper" in there, it's possible that A = B.

So all we've done really is kick out one set which drops 2^n to (2^n)-1 when counting the number of proper subsets. I'm using parenthesis to indicate the "-1" is not part of the exponent. If you wrote this on your paper, then you would likely write 2^{n} - 1

--------------

For this problem, n = 11

This means there are 2^n = 2^11 = 2048 subsets and (2^n)-1 = 2048-1 = 2047 proper subsets.

At dinner, the meal cost $22 and a $1.87 sales tax was added to the bill. What would be the total amount if the meal cost $80.
Helen [10]
1.87 is 8.5% of 22 so 8.5% of 80 is 0.085 x 80 so $6.80

D -e/3d + e= e, for d​
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

\large\boxed{d=\dfrac{e^2+e}{1-3e}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\dfrac{d-e}{3d+e}=e\\\\\dfrac{d-e}{3d+e}=\dfrac{e}{1}\qquad\text{cross multiply}\\\\(1)(d-e)=(e)(3d+e)\qquad\text{use the distributive property}\\\\d-e=3de+e^2\qquad\text{add}\ e\ \text{to both sides}\\\\d=3de+e+e^2\qquad\text{subtract}\ 3de\ \text{from both sides}\\\\d-3de=e^2+e\qquad\text{distribute}\\\\d(1-3e)=e^2+e\qquad\text{divide both sides by}\ (1-3e)\\\\d=\dfrac{e^2+e}{1-3e}
