Symbolically, if A is any set within the universal set U, then

A proper subset has less than seven elements. Subsets of many sizes would satisfy this condition. It is easier to consider the one subset that is not proper, namely S itself. S has a total of 2 7 = 128 subsets. From the complements principle, the number of proper subsets is 128 – 1 = 127. Solution

By the fundamental counting principle, there are 2 5 = 32 different results possible. Exactly one of these fails to satisfy “at least one tail.” So from the complement principle we have the answer: 32 – 1 = 31. Solution

All rights reserved 11-5-11 Problems Involving “Or” Another technique to count indirectly is to count the elements of a set by breaking that set into simpler component parts. If the cardinal number formula (Section 2.4) says to find the number of elements in S by adding the number in A to the number in B. We must then subtract the number in the intersection if A and B are not disjoint. If A and B are disjoint, the subtraction is not necessary.

All rights reserved 11-5-12 Additive Principle of Counting The number of ways that one or the other of two conditions could be satisfied is the number of ways one of them could be satisfied plus the number of ways the other could be satisfied minus the number of ways they could both be satisfied together. If A and B are any two sets, then If A and B are disjoint, then

Solution The sets all hearts and all black cards are disjoint. n(all hearts or all black cards) = n(all hearts) + n(all black cards) = 13 C 5 + 26 C 5 = 1,287 + 65,780 = 67,067

There are 9(10)(5) = 450 three-digit multiples of 2. A multiple of 5 ends in a 0 or 5, so there are 9(10)(2) = 180 of those. A multiple of 2 and 5 must end in a 0. There are 9(10)(1) = 90 of those. So we have 450 + 180 – 90 = 540 three-digit counting numbers that are multiples of 2 or 5. Solution

Solution a) club + queen – queen of clubs = 13 + 4 – 1 = 16? b) red card + face card – red face cards = 26 + 12 – 6 = 32
