a) 40 b) 5 8 c) 8 5 d) None of these
this one is simple one so ans is 5^8

Soln.
A very Important Formula:
x1+x2+x3+...+xn = A
has
(A+n-1)C(n-1) no. of solns.
Here we can write:
x1+x2+..+x6=10
But as x1>=1,...,x2>=1
Then,
let y1=x1-1y2=x2-1,...,y3=x3-1.
So eqn now becomes
x1+x2+x3+..+x6-6=10-6=4
No. of soln
(4+6-1)C(6-1)=9C5
So option (c) is correct...
Giv ur best to d world.
Nd d best will cm back to u..
Thank you specialy to you.

Soln.:
Easy one..
Formula: Out of n items where p,q,r are identical dn no. of ways to select:
n!/(p!*q!*r!)
Here so total no. of persons=7
Identical 1,2,4.
Total ways:
7!/(1!*2!*4!)
So option (a) is correct...

5) A set of 15 different words are given .In how many ways is it possible to choose a subset of not more than 5 words?
a) 4944 b)4 15 c) 15 4 d)4943
ans is 15c0+15c1+15c2+15c3+15c4+15c5=4944

4)There are three rooms in a motel: one single ,one double & one for four persons. How many ways are there to house seven persons in these rooms?
a) 7!/(1! 2! 4!) b) 7! c) 7!/3 d) 7!/3!
ans is (a) simple one

6) From a set of three capital consonants,five small consonant and four small vowels,how many words can be made each starting with a capital consonant and containing 3 smal consonants and two small vowels.
a) 3600 b)7200 c) 21,600 d) 28,800
ans is 3c1 x 5c3 x 4c2 x 5!
=21600

a)5 b)10 c) 15 d) 20
n(n-1)/2=45
so ans is 10

Hey y v do take 15c0 ??

@Shivani
Yes answer is right.
The qs demands the no. of subsets not the no. of ways..
Though I Dnt know whether that process is correct or not..
But I think
15c1+..+15c4=4933
As we know NULL SET is a subset of any set
So answer is:4933+1=4934[1 for that NULL SET]
