Answer 1

Answer:

90

Step-by-step explanation:

it is 90 because in the first slot there can be any 10 numbers and in the second slot the set can contain any of the remaining 9 numbers and then we can multiply these two numbers together to find the total amount of sets.

hope this helps :)

Answer 2

Answer:

45 different sets

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 10 numbers in {0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}.

We are looking for a combination since order doesn't mater

There are 10 options for the first number

We have chosen 1

Now there are 9 numbers

10*9

But since order doesn't matter, we divide by 2

The set {1,2} is the same as the set {2,1}

90/2 = 45
