A team of size m has to be chosen from a group of n people (m < n) and a captain chosen for the team.

(a) How many ways can the captained team be chosen if the captain is chosen first then the remainder of the team chosen.

(b) How many ways can the captained team be chosen if the team is chosen first then the captain chosen from the team? This should give the same number as a) but a different formula.

give a justification of answers pls (set notation, bijection principal, addition or multiplication theorem, cartesian product etc...)

(c) If n = 4 and m = 3 draw the selection tree for each of (a) and (b). Be sure to carefully label the nodes of the tree with the corresponding subsets and the branches of the tree with the corresponding choices.

(d) For the selection tree you draw in (c) write down the element of [4] × [3] that each path in the selection tree maps to using the bijection discussed in lectures. That is, write the 2-tuple at the end of each of the selection paths of the selection tree.

DO PART C & D ONLY!!! with formulas from part a and b should be 12 ways

A group of n people get on an elevator at Floor 0. There are m floors besides Floor 0. Each person uniformly randomly chooses one of those m floors to stop at. (All choices are independent, and no one gets on the elevator after Floor 0.) The elevator stops at a floor if at least one person has chosen to stop there. Let X be the number of stops that the elevator makes after Floor 0. (a) What is E[X]?...

Suppose that the birthdays of different people in a group of n people are independent, each equally likely to be on the 365 possible days. (Pretend there's no such thing as a leap day.) What's the smallest n so that it's more likely than not that someone among the n people has the same birthday as you? (You're not part of this group.)
