for A={1,2,3,4,5,6,7},compute the number of:  (a) Subsets of A.  (b) Nonempty subsets of A.  (c) proper subsets of A.  (d) Non empty proper subset of A.  (e) Subsets of A containing three element.  (f) Subsets of A containing 1,2.  (g) Proper subsets of A containing 1,2.  (h) Subset of A with an even number of element.  (i) Subset of A with an odd number of element.  (j) Subsets of A with an odd number of elements, including the element 3.

(a) 2^7  = 128  (b) 2^7 −1=127  (e) C_3 ^7  = ((7×6×5)/(3×2×1)) = 35

$$\left({a}\right)\:\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{7}} \:=\:\mathrm{128} \\ $$$$\left({b}\right)\:\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{7}} −\mathrm{1}=\mathrm{127} \\ $$$$\left({e}\right)\:{C}_{\mathrm{3}} ^{\mathrm{7}} \:=\:\frac{\mathrm{7}×\mathrm{6}×\mathrm{5}}{\mathrm{3}×\mathrm{2}×\mathrm{1}}\:=\:\mathrm{35} \\ $$$$ \\ $$

(d) should not be 35 sir

$$\left({d}\right)\:{should}\:{not}\:{be}\:\mathrm{35}\:{sir} \\ $$

(d)Nonempty proper subsets          128−2=126

$$\left({d}\right){Nonempty}\:{proper}\:{subsets} \\ $$$$\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\mathrm{128}−\mathrm{2}=\mathrm{126} \\ $$

Typo in 3rd line  (e) C_3 ^7  = ((7×6×5)/(3×2×1)) = 35

$$\mathcal{T}{ypo}\:{in}\:\mathrm{3}{rd}\:{line} \\ $$$$\left({e}\right)\:{C}_{\mathrm{3}} ^{\mathrm{7}} \:=\:\frac{\mathrm{7}×\mathrm{6}×\mathrm{5}}{\mathrm{3}×\mathrm{2}×\mathrm{1}}\:=\:\mathrm{35} \\ $$
