The number of elements of the power set of a set containing n elements isA. `2^(n-1)`B. `2^(n)`C. `2^(n)-1`D. `2^(n+1)`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
Let set A contains n elements.
Power set of a is the set of all subsets.
`therefore` Number of subsets of `A=.^(n)C_(o)+.^(n)C_(1)+.^(n)C_(2)+...+.^(n)C_(n)=2^(n)`
`therefore` Power set of A contains `2^(n)` elements.
