Document Summary

The rst three questions consider the process of arranging coloured marbles in a row from left to right. Two marbles of the same colour are to be considered indistinguishable when counting arrangements: (a) suppose that there are 4 white and 2 black marbles. Check your answer for the case n = 2. (c) in which of the arrangements in 2a (list them) is every white marble adjacent to at least one other white marble? (note: there are nine such arrangements. ) (d) i. When playing euchre, the deck is shuf ed, and 5 cards are dealt to each of 4 players (the remaining 4 cards remain unused). When calculating the following probabilities, fractions involving combinatorial numbers are preferred to decimals, but you should simplify where convenient. Could this be determined without computing either probability explicitly: a orist stocks red roses and white roses. Of these, some have thorns and some do not.
