find the cardinality ? ¯

OpenStudy (anonymous):

of?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

[(1,4), a,b (3,4) (empty set)]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@pgpilot326

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how many elements in the set?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its all in 1 bracket but seperated into parenthesis does that make sense ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

{(1,4), (a,b), (3,4), (empty set)} like this of is it a set of sets?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or not of

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|{{1,4},a,b,{{3,4}},{empty set}}|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so how many sets in the set?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3 ? including the empty set or that doesn't count ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hint: 1 more than the number of commas within only 1 set of brackets.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

{1,4} is an element a is an element b is an element {3,4} is an element {empty set} is an element

OpenStudy (anonymous):

isn't (1,4) a set ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wha twould be the answer then im confused lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it is a cardinality of 5 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what if you add 1 more bracket to the front and back of the line ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

{} are use to denote sets () are used to denote ordered n-tuples. for example, (1,2) is a point in 2-space. Although 2 numbers are needed, it is still considered a single point (or element) in 2-space. How exactly is the problem stated... brackets, parentheses and all?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you there?
