5. The set of months that starts with M.

It is an/a Set because March and May are months that start with M

ACTIVITY 3: Identify Me!

Directions: Identify the elements, subsets and cardinality of the given set.
𝐶 = {𝑠𝑒𝑡 𝑜𝑓 𝑓𝑖𝑟𝑠𝑡 𝑓𝑖𝑣𝑒 𝑐𝑜𝑢𝑛𝑡𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑛𝑢𝑚𝑏𝑒𝑟𝑠}

A. Elements: 1,2,3, _____, _____

Elements: 4, 5

B. Two subsets with three elements: {1,2,3}, {1,2,4}, ________, ________, ________
Subsets: {1,2,5}{1,3,4}{1,3,5}{1,4,5}{2,3,4}{2,3,5}{3,4,5}

C. Cardinality: 𝑛(𝐶) = ______

n(C)= 5

Let’s see how much have you learned today!

Assessment 1. Give me my parts!

Directions: List all possible subsets of the following sets.

1. {5, 10}
(The subsets are: { }, {5}, {10}, and {5, 10}.)

2. {0, 1, 2}
(The subsets are: { }, {0}, {1}, {2}, {0, 1}, {1, 2}, {0, 2}, and {0, 1, 2} .)

3. {m, a, t, h}
(The subsets are: { }, {m, a, t, h}, {m}, {a}, {t}, {h}, {m, a}, {a, t}, {t, h}, {m, h}, {m, t},
{a, h}, {m, a, t}, {m, a, h}, {m, t, h}, and {a, t, h})
4. {1, 5, 7}
(The subsets are: { },{1}, {5}, {7}, {1, 5}, {5, 7}, {1, 7} and {1, 5, 7}.)

5. {z}
(The subsets are: { }, and {z}.)
