Property 2

The number of elements of set A is denoted by n(A). In list form, the elements inside the \(\{\}\) notation are considered as one.

\(A=\{1,2,\{3,4\},\{5,6,7\}\}\Rightarrow n(A)=4\)
1.
\(A=\{1,3,\{a,b\}\}\)
\(\Rightarrow n(A)=?\)
2.
\(A=\{2,3,\{1,5,6\},-3,4\}\)
\(\Rightarrow n(A)=?\)
3.
\(A=\{1,2,\{0,b\},\{c,d,e\}\}\)
\(\Rightarrow n(A)=?\)
4.
\(A=\{x\mid x\in\mathbb{N},\ -4<x<6\}\)
\(\Rightarrow n(A)=?\)
5.
\(A=\{x\mid x\in\mathbb{Z},\ x^2<30\}\)
\(\Rightarrow n(A)=?\)
6.
\(A=\{x\mid7<x<13,\ x\in\mathbb{Z}\}\)
\(\Rightarrow n(A)=?\)
7.
\(A=\{x\mid x=3k,\ k\in\mathbb{Z},\ 0<x<70\}\)
\(\Rightarrow n(A)=?\)
