Give reasons

0 is an element in A so we can write \[0 \in A\]

OpenStudy (aravindg):

If thats what you asked for

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay and what about second

OpenStudy (raden):

what means P{P(P(A))} ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

we have to find the no. of elements,

OpenStudy (anonymous):

power of A

OpenStudy (raden):

power of A ? i cant caught it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

given , A={1) Power of set A=P(A) = {Φ, {1}}

OpenStudy (anonymous):

acc. to me ,, answer should be 2^3=8

OpenStudy (raden):

looks like subset ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but i think my answer is wrong

OpenStudy (amistre64):

your question doesnt seem to be asking for the cardinality of it, but rather the elements of it

OpenStudy (amistre64):

had to zoom out on it, number of elements is cardinality, ok

OpenStudy (amistre64):

this should be simple enough: A = {1} P{A} = { { } , {1} } P(P{A}) = { { } , { } , {1}, { { } , { 1 }} } = { { } , {1}, { { } , { 1 }} } = {a,b,c} , for simplicity P(P(P{A})) = { { }, {a}, {b}, {c}, {a,b}, {a,c}, {b,c}, {a,b,c} } = { { }, { }, {1}, {{ { } , { 1 }}}, { { } , [1]}, { { }, {{ },{1}}}, {{1},{{ },{1}}}, { } , {1}, { { } , { 1 }}} ow my eyes!!

OpenStudy (amistre64):

P(P(P{A})) = { {a}, {b}, {c}, {a,b}, {a,c}, {b,c}, {a,b,c} } = 7 distinct elements

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the problem is, that with each new power, you reintroduce a null set that is already an element.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k

OpenStudy (anonymous):

actually my teacher solved this, and last step , i added myself

OpenStudy (amistre64):

spose we renotate this as null = n, and A = {a} P(A) = { n , a } P(A(A)) = {n, n, a, {n,a}} = {n, a, {n,a}} P(A(A(A))) = {n, n, a, {n,a}, {n,a}, {n,{n,a}}, {a,{n,a}}, {n, a, {n,a}} } so we actually intrduced 2 like elements that time

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay

OpenStudy (amistre64):

P(A(A(A))) = {n, a, {n,a}, {n,{n,a}}, {a,{n,a}}, {n, a, {n,a}} } = 6 elements

OpenStudy (amistre64):

what do we call a subset that is fully contained inside of another set?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@amistre64 thank you
