If S = {Mon, Wed, Fri, Sun}, what is n(S)?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: 4
The notation n(S) means the cardinality, or number of distinct elements, of set S. The set lists Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday, which are four different elements. Therefore n(S) = 4. The answer is not 7, because the set does not contain all days of the week, and order does not affect the count.
