Question

Algebra 1 help please >.<

Answer 1

Looks like they want the power set or the set of all subsets.
here's an example:

If S is the set {x, y, z}, then the subsets of S are:
and hence the power set of S is {{}, {x}, {y}, {z}, {x, y}, {x, z}, {y, z}, {x, y, z}}
the first element is an empty set

Answer 2

How would you list all the different sets that make up this set?

Answer 3

oh so you just list all the ways the subsets can be arrainge

Answer 4

or the set is arranged

Answer 5

I can but I'd prefer you learned it
If we're including the empty set, the individual elements, and the pair, how would you write that out?
I'll get you started \[\emptyset,,,\]

Answer 6

i dont get it :/

Answer 7

ok I'll do it with some different numbers
{5,6}
All of the subsets is
\[\emptyset,5,6,(5,6)\]

Answer 8

how do you figure that out?

Answer 9

you can see it better if you look at the x,y,z example.
Basically you have to include the empty set, x, y, z, (x,y), (x,z) [blah blah blah] (x,y,z)
