(a) If we have a bag of 14 pairs of socks, how many socks do we need to draw to ensure we get a matched pair? (b) How many times must we roll a six sided die in order to get the same score at least twice? What about at least three times? And at least four times? (c) Prove that a selection of 7 numbers from the set {1, 2, ..., 11} contains numbers m and n such that m+n= 12. (Hint: create boxes consisting of pairs that sum to 12.)
