\[[ (\phi),\phi ]\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
2^0 = 1
So phi.....is the only Powerset.....am i right ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@helder_edwin
OpenStudy (helder_edwin):
u mean the power set of
\[ \large \{\{\emptyset\},\emptyset\} \]
?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yup

OpenStudy (helder_edwin):
so it has two elements, then the power set gotta have 2^2=4 elemments
OpenStudy (anonymous):
But Phi is a null set...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
We dont count phi as an element ryt?
OpenStudy (helder_edwin):
if
\[ \large A=\{\{\emptyset\},\emptyset\} \]
then
\[ \large P(A)=\{\emptyset,\{\emptyset\},\{\{\emptyset\}\},
\{\{\emptyset\},\emptyset\}\} \]

yes we do
OpenStudy (anonymous):
is subset = powerset ?
OpenStudy (helder_edwin):
WHATEVER is inside the first pair of braces is an element of the set.
OpenStudy (helder_edwin):
no. subset is a relation between two sets.
the power set of a set is a set.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
r they equal ? @helder_edwin

What if the question is write the subset of the following question
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@helder_edwin
OpenStudy (helder_edwin):
sorry. my internet connection isn't very good.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh..no...
OpenStudy (helder_edwin):
as i posted, they r different concepts

what was the other question?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Write the subset of {∅,{∅}} ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
wouldnt that be same as Powerset
OpenStudy (anonymous):
But with out Braces at right and left
OpenStudy (helder_edwin):
a subset of that set would be
\[ \large \{\emptyset\} \]
for instance

So subset is not equal to Powerset...
OpenStudy (helder_edwin):
NO.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Ok....Thxxx...Buddy...:)
OpenStudy (helder_edwin):
If A is a set, then its power set, P(A), is the set of all subsets of A.
OpenStudy (helder_edwin):
u r welcome
