discrete math !
let p ={aaron, bob, phill, john, chad}
how many subsets contain neither aaron nor bob
the answer is 2^(5-2)= 2^(3)= 8
but another question i saw was a = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ,6 ,7}
how many subsets of a include {2, 4, 6}
and the anwser is 2^(7-3)= 2^4=16
why is the method we use for include and niether the same? i doubt there is an error becuase these questions were done by my professor.

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

1.Let p={Aaron , bob ,phill,john,chad}

Number of elements in set p=5

Formula : Number of subset of the set which contain n elements

Total number of subset =

The subsets which  contain neither  Aaron nor  bob are

{phil},{john},{chad},{phil,john},{phil,chad},{john,chad},{phil,john,chad}

There are eight subsets which do not contain neither Aaron nor bob .

Answer given by the method

Where 5= Total number of elements

2= Number of elements in subsets which do not contain

Therefore,answer is correct.

2.A={1,2,3,4,5,6,7}

There are total seven elements

Therefore, total number of subsets =

We have to find the number of subsets of A which include 2,4 and 6.

The number of subsets which contain {2,4, 6}

{2,4,6},{2,4,6,1},{2,4,6,3},{2,4,6,5},{2,4,6,7},{1,2,3,4,6},{1,2,4,5,6},{1,2,4,6,7},{2,4,5,6,7},{2,3,4,5,6},{2,3,4,6,7},{1,2,3,4,5,6},{2,3,4,5,6,7},{1,3,4,5,6,7},{1,2,4,5,6,7},{1,2,3,5,6,7},{1,2,3,4,5,7},{1,2,3,4,5,6,7}

Total number of subsets  which contain {2,4,6} are eighteen.

Answer  given by

The answer is false.

We can not use these method for calculating number of subsets which contain{2,4,6}.

hi how are you doing today? if you ever need just tell me

step-by-step explanation:

p(x)= 8 x³ - 36 x² + 54 x - 27

q(x) = 2 x -3

you can check your mistake and then you can choose the correct option.

dividend =   8 x³ - 36 x² + 54 x - 27

divisor = 2 x -3

if you want to find quotient, proceed as follows

q(x)= 0

2 x - 3=0

x =

now , i have used division method , to find quotient and remainder
