Determine and write the number of subsets in a set questions.Make the questions difficult small.And then provide answers to for it

Answer 1

Sure! Here are some challenging questions regarding the number of subsets in a set, along with their answers:

### Question 1:
How many subsets can be formed from a set containing 10 distinct elements?

### Answer 1:
A set with \( n \) distinct elements has \( 2^n \) subsets. Therefore, for a set with 10 elements:
\[
2^{10} = 1024
\]
So, the number of subsets is **1024**.

### Question 2:
If a set contains 6 unique integers, how many subsets can be generated if we are restricted to use only subsets that have an even number of elements?

### Answer 2:
First, we calculate the total number of subsets of the set with 6 elements:
\[
2^6 = 64
\]
Half of these will have even numbers of elements. The even-sized subsets for a set of size \( n \) can be calculated as:
\[
\text{Total subsets} = 2^n
\]
\[
\text{Subsets with an even number of elements} = \frac{2^n}{2} = 2^{n-1}
\]

For \( n = 6 \):
\[
2^{6-1} = 2^5 = 32
\]
So, the number of subsets with an even number of elements is **32**.

### Question 3:
What is the number of subsets of the set \{a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h\} that contain the element 'a'?

### Answer 3:
To determine the number of subsets that contain the element 'a', we can fix 'a' as part of the subset and consider the remaining elements. The remaining elements are \{b, c, d, e, f, g, h\}, which have 7 elements.

The number of subsets that can be formed from these 7 elements (with 'a' included) is:
\[
2^7 = 128
\]
So, the number of subsets that contain the element 'a' is **128**.

### Question 4:
If a set has 8 elements, how many subsets exist that have at least 2 elements?

### Answer 4:
The total number of subsets for a set of 8 elements is:
\[
2^8 = 256
\]
To find the number of subsets with at least 2 elements, we need to subtract the subsets with 0 elements (1 subset) and subsets with 1 element (8 subsets).
\[
\text{Subsets with at least 2 elements} = 256 - (1 + 8) = 256 - 9 = 247
\]
So, the number of subsets with at least 2 elements is **247**.

### Question 5:
Consider a set with 12 elements. How many subsets can be formed that have a size greater than 6?

### Answer 5:
The total number of subsets is \( 2^{12} = 4096 \).

To find the number of subsets with size greater than 6, we subtract the subsets of size 0 through 6 from the total.

Using the binomial coefficient, the subsets of size \( k \) can be calculated as:
\[
\sum_{k=0}^{6} \binom{12}{k}
\]

Calculating these values:
- \(\binom{12}{0} = 1\)
- \(\binom{12}{1} = 12\)
- \(\binom{12}{2} = 66\)
- \(\binom{12}{3} = 220\)
- \(\binom{12}{4} = 495\)
- \(\binom{12}{5} = 792\)
- \(\binom{12}{6} = 924\)

Adding these up:
\[
1 + 12 + 66 + 220 + 495 + 792 + 924 = 2510
\]

Now, subtracting from the total:
\[
4096 - 2510 = 1586
\]
So, the number of subsets with size greater than 6 is **1586**.
