guys, years ago i made this post....problem is, it is wrong. using the abov logic we'll be counting some of the albums multiple times. the correct way of solving this wud be (2^5-1)*(2^6-1)*2^3 2^5-1 becoz there are two options for each rock song. hence total of 2^5 options. but one of th...
first choose a rock song and a carnatic song.this can be done in 5 ways and 6 ways respectively.so we can choose a rock song and a carnatic song together in 30 ways.now of the remaining 12 songs,each song can either be in the album or not be in the album.that is there are 2 ways for each of the 12 songs.so these 12 songs can be chosen in 2*2*2....*2 (i.e. 2^12).the total no. of ways becomes 30*(2^12).bye..

2^5-1 becoz there are two options for each rock song. hence total of 2^5 options. but one of these wud be no rock song inluded. hence subtracting 1. same reasoning for carnatic. since there is no restriction on the minimum number of indie pop songs, i dont subtact 1.
P.S. been so long since i posted on this thread...some users liking the above post brought the error to my notice.
@Alex. Question 2 Total cases possible for drawing three chips - 10C3+9C3+8C3+7C3+6C3+5C3+4C3+3C3 = 120+84+56+35+20+10+4+1 = 330 Favourable case - 9C3 = 84 Ans = 84/330 = 14/55
@Alex. Question 1 Favourable cases : Select any two teachers out of the 9 = 9C2 ways Now no. of ways in which 5 questions may be allocated to these 2 teachers = 2^5 But in these 2^5 cases, there will be two cases such that all five questions are allotted to a single teacher. So...
@Alex. Question 1 Favourable cases : Select any two teachers out of the 9 = 9C2 ways Now no. of ways in which 5 questions may be allocated to these 2 teachers = 2^5 But in these 2^5 cases, there will be two cases such that all five questions are allotted to a single teacher. So total ways of allotting questions to exactly 2 teachers is = 2^5 - 2
Total favourable cases = 9C2 . (2^5 - 2) = 36.30 Total Possible cases = 9^5 Ans = 36.30/9^5 = 40/2187

Q2) Ashish is studying late into night and is hungry.He opens his mother's snack cupboard without switching on the lights,knowing that his mother has kept 10 packets of chips and biscuits in the cupboard.He pulls out 3 packets from the cupboard , and all of them turn out to be chips .What is the probability that the snack cupboard contains 1 packet of biscuit and 9 packets of chips?
you can apply direct formula i.e. number of integral solutions but here we need only +ve integers x = x' + 1 y = y' + 1 z = z' + 1 x' + 1 + y' + 1 + z' + 1 = 100 => x' + y' + z' = 97 now apply integral solution formula i.e. (97 + 2)C2
@macc6 x + y + z = 100; 0 < x<99 0< y < 99 0<99 x , y, and z can only be from 1 to 98 Because if the other two nos, are both 1, the value of the third is 98. if x = 1, y could only be 1 to 98 (98 choices) if x = 2, y could only be 1 to 97 (97 choices) ...... If x =...
x , y, and z can only be from 1 to 98 Because if the other two nos, are both 1, the value of the third is 98.
if x = 1, y could only be 1 to 98 (98 choices) if x = 2, y could only be 1 to 97 (97 choices) ...... If x = 98, c could only be 1 (1 choice) Once x and y are selected, z could only be 100 - (x+y) Se we only count the various x, y combinations
Total number of ordered triplets = 98 + 97 + .... + 2 + 1 = 98(98+1)/2 = 4851
(summation of integers from 1 to n = n(n+1)/2 n = 98

@macc6 take all cases and subtract those in which red and white come together.So, total cases = 8!Cases in which red and white come together = 7!*2!So, required answer = 8! - 7!*2!
_ RED _ WHITE _ g1 + g2 + g3 = 6 (where g2 > 0) => number of solutions = 7C2 = 21 and in 2! ways red and white arrange themselves required answer = 21*6!*2!
Are you sure?Check this:You can select 4 different numbers in 13C4 waysNow you have to assign 4 different suits to these 4 numbers: which you can do in 4! waysTotal no. of ways: 13C4 * 4!

1st select any card = 52C1 now we have left with 52 - 13 - 3 = 36 cards 2nd card = 36C1 in same way other 2 in 22C1 and 10C1 total ways = 52C1*36C1*22C1*10C1 but here order doesn't matter so , we have to divide it by 4! required answer will be = 52C1*36C1*22C1*10C1/4!

Kindly help me with this one:In how many ways we can select four cards of different suits & different denominations from a deck of 52 cards??Confusion is between : 52 X 36 X 22 X 10 and 13 X 12 X 11 X 10 Which one is correct ??? @LeoN88Can Anyone of you help me out with this one??

bhai 4 suits bole to 13,13,13,13
choose 1 from any1 - 13c1 ab baki sab se 1 option kam, i.e 12c1, similarly
13 cards in each suit. Now, if you select any one of the 13 cards of say spades ; u'll be left with only 12 options to choose from the next set of suit & so on......... Arun sharma ka qstn hain bhai ; kiya hua hain boht baar. baaki dekh lo ....letz see what @krum & @rkshtsurana says

In 2nd case repetitions are taking place eg. You choose B1 & G1 first then selecting B4,G2 OK Then in another case you choose B1 & G2 first then selecting B4 & G1.......
This is a very easy question & i already know the solution but i am confused about another approach(May be my concepts are not clear)..Q. There are 5 boys & 6 girls. A committee of 4 is to be selected so that it must consist of at least 1 boy & 1 girl??Conventional way to solve this is by making 3 cases:1 boy & 3 girls2 boys & 2 girls 3 boys & 1 girl& add them up5c1X6c3 + 5c2X6c2 + 5c3X6c1 = 310What's wrong if we consider one boy & one girl first receptively and then select the other 2 members from the remaining 9 candidates, which would lead to this.5c1 X 6c1 X 9c2 = 1080I know this is dumb but i'm stuck!!!

Q. There are 5 boys & 6 girls. A committee of 4 is to be selected so that it must consist of at least 1 boy & 1 girl??
Conventional way to solve this is by making 3 cases:
1 boy & 3 girls
2 boys & 2 girls
3 boys & 1 girl
& add them up
5c1X6c3 + 5c2X6c2 + 5c3X6c1 = 310
What's wrong if we consider one boy & one girl first receptively and then select the other 2 members from the remaining 9 candidates, which would lead to this.
