3. Suppose you have 12 professors in a department and you have to chose members of departmental
committees.
(a) How many ways can you pick members for one 4 people committee?
(b) How many ways can you pick members for two different 4 people committees if no-one can serve
on both committees?
(c) How many ways can you pick members for two different 4 people committees if people can serve
on both committees?
(d) How about if you need members for a 4 person, a 5 person, and a 3 person committee, people
cannot serve on more than one committee?
(e) How about if you need members for a 4 person, a 5 person, and a 3 person committee, people can
serve on more than one committee?
(f) How about if you need members for a 4 person, a 5 person, and a 3 person committee, people
cannot serve on more than one committee, and the first person chosen for each committee serves
as chair?
