Math Problem Statement
There are 32 subsets of {3, 4, 5, 6, 7}.
Solution
To determine the number of subsets of a set, you can use the formula:
where is the number of elements in the set.
For the set , the number of elements is .
Thus, the number of subsets is:
So, you're correct: there are 32 subsets of the set , which include both the empty set and the set itself.
