Answer 1

(a), (a,c), (a,d), (a,e), (a,c,d), (a,c,e), (a,d,e), (a,c,d,e)

Explanation:

We are given the set (a,b,c,d,e).

Total number of subsets of the above set are
`2^5` = 32

Subsets:

φ

(a,b,c,d,e)

(a), (b), (c), (d), (e)

(a,b), (a,c), (a,d), (a,e), (b,c), (b,d), (b,e), (c,d), (c,e), (d,e)

(a,b,c), (a,b,d), (a,b,e), (a,c,d), (a,c,e), (a,d,e), ( b,c,d), (b,c,e), (b,d,e), (c,d,e)

(a,b,c,d), (a,b,c,e), (a,b,d,e), (a,c,d,e), (b,c,d,e)

Subset having a but not b :

(a), (a,c), (a,d), (a,e), (a,c,d), (a,c,e), (a,d,e), (a,c,d,e)
