Explanation / Answer
1
Given set A={a, b, c, d)
Number of elements =n=4
Number of subsets =2^n = 2^4 = 16 answer
2
Given set A={f,g,h,p,}, subsets consisting of 2 different elements of A are 4C2 =6
(f,g) ,(f,h) ,(f,p) ,(g,h) (g,p),(h,p)
3
Given set A={f,g,h,p}, subsets consisting of 2 letter arrangements of A are 4C2 *2 =12
(f,g) ,(f,h) ,(f,p) ,(g,h) (g,p),(h,p) ,(g,f),(h,f),(p,f) ,(h,g),(p,g),(p,h)
4
7C4= 7!/(4!*3!) =35
5
possibility of 7 = (1,6) ,(6,1) ,(2,5),(5,2),(3,4),(4,3)
probability = 6/36=1/6
6
7!/(3!*2!) =420
