Question 13 Marks

If $^nC_p =\ ^nC_p$ Find $^{12}C_n.$

Answer

We have,
If $^nC_p =\ ^nC_q = n$
Then $p + q = n$
Also,
${^\text{n}}\text{C}_{\text{r}}=\frac{\text{n!}}{\text{r!}(\text{n}-\text{r})!}\ ...(\text{i})$
$\Rightarrow ^nC_4 =\ ^nC_6$
$4 + 6 = n$
$\Rightarrow n = 10$
Applying (i),
${^\text{12}}\text{C}_{\text{10}}=\frac{\text{12!}}{10!2!}$
$=\frac{12\times11\times10!}{10!\times2\times1}$
$=\frac{12\times11}{2\times1}=66$

Question 23 Marks

How many different boat parties of 8, consisting of 5 boys and 3 girls, can be made from 25 boys and 10 girls?

Answer

We have,
Total boy = 25
Total girls = 10
Party of 8 to be made 25 boy and 10 girls,
$= {^\text{25}\text{C}}_{\text{5}},{^\text{10}\text{C}}_{\text{3}}$
$= {^\text{25}\text{C}}_{\text{5}}\times{^\text{10}\text{C}}_{\text{3}}$
Now,
${^\text{25}\text{C}}_{\text{5}}=\frac{\text{n}!}{\text{r}!(\text{n}-\text{r})!}$
$=\frac{25!}{5!20}\times\frac{10}{3!7!}$
$=\frac{25\times24\times23\times22\times21\times10\times9\times9\times8}{5\times4\times3\times2\times3\times2}$
$=6375600$

Question 33 Marks

Find the number of diagonals of:

A hexagon.
A polygon of 16 sides.

Answer

A hexagon:

A hexagon has 6 angular points. By joining any two angular points we get a line which is either a side or a diagonal.

Number of line $={^{6}{\text{C}}}_{\text{2}}=\frac{6!}{2!4!}$

$=\frac{6\times5}{2}=15$

Number of sides = 6

Number of diagonals = 15 - 6 = 9

A polygon of 16 sides:

A polygonof 16 sides will have 16 angular points. By joining any 2 points we get a line which is either a side or a diagonal.

Number of lines $={^{16}{\text{C}}}_{\text{2}}=\frac{16!}{2!14!}$

$=\frac{16\times15}{2}=120$

Number of sides = 16

Number of diagonals = 120 - 16 = 104

Question 43 Marks

How many words each of 3 vowels and 2 consonants can be formed from the letters of the word INVOLUTE?

Answer

INVOLUTE
Number of letter = 8
Wovels = I, O, U, E
Consonents = N, V, L, T
Number of ways to select 3 wovels $={^\text{4}}\text{C}_{\text{3}}$
Number of ways to select 2 Consonents $={^\text{4}}\text{C}_{\text{2}}$
Number of ways to arrange these five letters,
$={^\text{4}}\text{C}_{\text{3}}\times{^\text{4}}\text{C}_{\text{2}}\times5!$
$=4\times6\times5\times4\times3\times2\times1$
$=2880$

Question 53 Marks

If $^nC_{10} =\ ^nC_{12}$, Find $^{23}C_n.$

Answer

We have,
If $^nC_p =\ ^nC_q = n$
Then $p + q = n$
Also,
$\Rightarrow\ ^nC_{10} =\ ^nC_{12}$
$10 + 12 = n$
$\Rightarrow n = 22$
Applying $(i),$
${^\text{23}}\text{C}_{\text{22}}=\frac{\text{23!}}{22!1!}$
$=\frac{23\times22!}{22!}$
$=23$

Question 63 Marks

We wish to select 6 persons from 8 but if the person A is chosen, then B must be chosen. In how many ways can the selection be made?

Answer

We have,
Total persons = 8
Selection to be made = 6 person.
If A is chosen then B must be chosen.
⇒ A and B are chosen together
Selection can be made in,
$\Rightarrow {^{6}{\text{C}}}_{\text{4}}=\frac{6!}{4!2!}$
$=\frac{6\times5}{2}=15$
Also the number of selection in which A and B are not chosen are,
$\Rightarrow {^{7}{\text{C}}}_{\text{6}}=\frac{7!}{6!1!}$
$=7$
Total number of ways in which selection is made = 15 + 7 = 22

Question 73 Marks

Prove that: $^{4\text{n}}\text{C}_{2\text{n}}:^{2\text{n}}\text{C}_{\text{n}}=[1,3,5...(4\text{n}-1):[1,3,5...(2\text{n-1})^{2}].$

Answer

We have,
$\Rightarrow \frac{\frac{4\text{n}!}{(2\text{n})!(2\text{n}!)}}{\frac{2\text{n}!}{\text{n}!\text{n}!}}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{(4\text{n}!)\times(\text{n}!^{2})}{(2\text{n}!)(2\text{n})\times(2\text{n})!^{2}}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{\big[1,2,3,4...(4\text{n}-1)(4\text{n})\big](\text{n}!^{2})}{(2\text{n})!\big[1,2,3,4....(2\text{n}-2)(2\text{n}-1)(2\text{n})\big]^{2}}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{\big[1,3,5...(4\text{n}-1)\big]\times\big[2,4,6...4\text{n}\big](\text{n}!^{2})}{(2\text{n})!\big[1,3,5....(2\text{n}-1)\big]^{2}\times\big[2,4,6....(2\text{n}-2)(2\text{n})\big]^{2}}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{\big[1,3,5.....(4\text{n}-1)\big]}{\big[1,3,5.....(4\text{n}-1)\big]^{2}}$
Hence proved.

Question 93 Marks

Prove that the product of 2n consecutive negative integers is divisible by (2n!).

Answer

We have,
Product by,
$=\big[(2\text{n}+1)(2\text{n}+3)(2\text{n}+5)....(2\text{n}+\text{r})\big]$
$=\frac{(2\text{n})\big[(2\text{n+1})(2\text{n+3})....(2\text{n}+\text{r})\big]}{(2\text{n}!)}$
$=\frac{(2\text{n}+\text{r})!}{(2\text{n})!}$
Hence r = 2n
$=\frac{(2\text{n}+2\text{n})!}{2\text{n}}$
$=\frac{(4\text{n})!}{(2\text{n})!}$
$=(2\text{n})!$

Question 103 Marks

If ${^\text{2n}}\text{C}_{\text{3}}:{^\text{n}}\text{C}_{\text{2}}=44:3,$ find n.

Answer

We have,
$\Rightarrow \frac{\frac{2\text{n}!}{(3\text{n})!(2\text{n-3}!)}}{\frac{\text{n}!}{\text{2}!(\text{n-2}!)}}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{2\text{n}!2!(\text{n}-2)!}{3!(2\text{n}-3)!\text{n}!}=\frac{44}{3}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{2\text{n}!}{3\text{n}~(\text{n-1})!(2\text{n}-3)!}=\frac{44}{3}$
$\Rightarrow 2\text{n}(2\text{n}-1)(2\text{n}-2)=44\text{n}(\text{n}-1)$
$\Rightarrow (2\text{n}-1)(\text{n}-1)=11(\text{n}-1)$

Question 113 Marks

If ${^\text{n}}\text{C}_{12}={^\text{n}}\text{C}_{5},$ Find the value of $n.$

Answer

We have,
${^\text{n}}\text{C}_{\text{r}}=\frac{\text{n!}}{\text{r!}(\text{n}-\text{r})!}$
Hence, $n = m$
$r = 12$ and $5$
Applying formula
$^nC_p =\ ^nC_q = n$
Then$ p + q = n$
$\Rightarrow\ ^nC_{12} =\ ^nC_5$
$12 + 5 = n$
$\Rightarrow n = 17$

Question 153 Marks

There are 10 points in a plane of which 4 are collinear. How many different straight lines can be drawn by joining these points.

Answer

Number of point = 10
Number of collinear points = 4
