You are essentially asking how many different bit strings of length 9 are there, as the first 3 bits are fixed. The answer is 2^9 = 512.
-- There are 256 bit strings of length 8 . -- There are 4 bit strings of length 2, and you've restricted 2 of the 8 bits to 1 of those 4 . -- So you've restricted the whole byte to 1/4 of its possible values = 64 of them.
n+1 (counting the empty string)
Since there are 8 bits in between, and they can assume any of the two values (0 or 1), that results in a total of 28 different combinations.
That's just the highest number that can be counted with 6 bits ... 127 .
Every bit can either be a 0 or 1. So to find the amount of bit strings of length either, you do 2length to find the amount of bit strings there are of a given length.
1024

210=1024
Half of them.
There are no zero-length strings that start with 1 bit or end with 2 bits. In a zero-length string, there are no bits at all.

There are 210.
1024 of them.

its 2 raised to power 8 i.e 256
