Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(31\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given set \(A = \{1, 2, 3, 4, \ldots, 10\}\).

The subsets must contain only even numbers. The even numbers in set \(A\) are \(2, 4, 6, 8, 10\).

Let \(E\) be the set of even numbers in \(A\), so \(E = \{2, 4, 6, 8, 10\}\).

The number of elements in \(E\) is \(n(E) = 5\).

The total number of subsets of \(E\) is \(2^5 = 32\).

Since we need the number of non-empty subsets, we subtract the empty set.

The number of non-empty subsets of \(E\) is \(2^5 - 1 = 32 - 1 = 31\).

Answer: \(31\)
