SOLUTION:

Step 1:

In this question, we are given the following:

How many subsets does the set T = {salsa, sour cream, queso, guacamole, pico de gallo} have?

Step 2:

The details of the solution are as follows:

Recall that:

The empty set and the set itelf are also part of the subsets that must be included as part of the number of subsets.

If a set has “n” elements,

then the number of subset of the given set is


2^n

Hence, the total number of subsets will be:


2^5=\text{ 32 \lparen OPTION D \rparen}

CONCLUSION:

The final answer is:


32\text{ \lparen OPTION D \rparen}
