Suppose that the universal set is U={1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10}. Express each of the following subsets with bit strings (of length 10) where the ith bit (from left to right) is 1 if i is in the subset and zero otherwise.

0011100000

1010010001

0111001110

Step-by-step explanation:

As the question is not complete, Here is the complete question.

Suppose that the universal set is U = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}. Express each of these sets with bit strings where the ith bit in the string is 1 if i is in the set and 0 otherwise.

a) {3, 4, 5}

b) {1, 3, 6, 10}

c) {2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9}.

So, we need to express a) b) and c) into bit strings.

Firstly, number of elements in the universal set represent the number of bits in the bit string.

Secondly, 1 = yes element is present in both universal set as well as in sub set.

0 = No, element is not present in sub set but present in universal set.

Hence, we have:

a) Sub set {3,4,5} = 0011100000 (As there are 3 1's which means only 3,4,5 are present in both universal set and subset.

Similarly,

b) Sub set {1, 3, 6, 10} = 1010010001

c) Sub set {2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9} = 0111001110
