7 0

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

0 + 1 + 2 + 3+ 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 +8 + 9 + 10 + 11 seems to equal 66. That means there are 11 + 1 = 12 people (don’t forget to count the person who shakes 0 hands)

For the given set, first calculate the number of subsets for the set, then calculate the number of proper subsets. {18, 8, 14, 9
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

Subsets of the given set = 32

Proper subset of the given set = 31

Step-by-step explanation:

Given set is {18, 8, 14, 9, 6} having 5 elements.

We know number of subsets of a set having n elements are represented by

2^{n}

where n is the number of elements in the set.

Therefore, subsets of the given set = 2^{5}

= 32

Since original set itself is a subset of its own, is not a proper subset.

Therefore, proper subset of a set = 2^{n}-1

= 2^{5}-1

= 32 - 1

= 31
