10. Show that among 2000 student in UTEM, at least six were born on the same day of the leap year. In a black bowl contains 10 red balls and 10 yellow balls. One person selects balls at random without looking at them. a) How many balls must be select to be sure of having at least 3 balls of the same colour? b) How many balls must be select to be sure of having at least 3 yellow balls? 11.
Permutations and Combinations
If there are 5 dishes, they can be relished in any order at a time. In permutation, it should be in a particular order. In combination, the order does not matter. Take 3 letters a, b, and c. The possible ways of pairing any two letters are ab, bc, ac, ba, cb and ca. It is in a particular order. So, this can be called the permutation of a, b, and c. But if the order does not matter then ab is the same as ba. Similarly, bc is the same as cb and ac is the same as ca. Here the list has ab, bc, and ac alone. This can be called the combination of a, b, and c.
