If n. [P (A)] = then find n(A)
Answers
Generally the formula for finding the power of a set is 2^n where n is the number of elements in the given set.
So here n=2
So 2^2=4 is cardinal of P ( means number of max subsets)
Now understand what do you mean by this.
Power of a set = the maximum number of subset you can get from that set.
Here power is 4 means you can get 4 subsets i.e. P(A)={{},{1},{2},{1,2}}
Remember empty set is a subset of every set.Another example:
B={1,2,3}
P(B)={ {},{1},{2},{3},{1,2},{2,3},{1,3}{1,2,3}}
In formula here n=3
So 2^3=8 and if you notice total number of subset is 8. If any queries comment.
Explanation:
Formula for the probability of A and B (independent events): p(A and B) = p(A) * p(B). If the probability of one event doesn't affect the other, you have an independent event. All you do is multiply the probability of one by the probability of another.
