Question

(a) How many injective functions are there from {1, 2, 3} to {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}?

(b) How many subsets are there of {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7} that are the range of an injective function with domain {1, 2, 3}?

(c) What is the smallest number of people that must be in a group in order to guarantee that at least three people in the group were born in the same month (of possibly different years)? (The answer is not three; if you have three people they could all be born in the same month, but this is not guaranteed).

(d) What is the coefficient of a a^5b^2 in (a + b)^7?

(e) What is the coefficient of a^5b^2c in (a + b + c)^8?
