Final answer:

The set a = {3, 6, 7} has 8 subsets, which include the empty set, single-element subsets, two-element subsets, and the set itself.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks us to list all the subsets of the set a = {3, 6, 7}. A subset is a set that contains zero or more elements of another set. Since there are three elements in set a, we will have a total of 23 or 8 possible subsets, including the empty set and the set itself. Here is the list of all subsets:

  • {} (the empty set)
  • {3}
  • {6}
  • {7}
  • {3, 6}
  • {3, 7}
  • {6, 7}
  • {3, 6, 7}

It's essential to remember that sets are unordered, and the subsets could be listed in any order.
