\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The general formula for number of subsets is \"2%5En\" and the number of proper subsets is \"2%5En+-+1\", where \"n\" is the number of elements.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "if given set { .\"11\", \"14\", \"17\", \"2\".}, we can see that the number of elements is \"n=4\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so, the number of subsets is \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"2%5En=2%5E4=16\" \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "and the number of proper subsets is\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"2%5En+-+1=2%5E4+-+1=16-1=15\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
