A committee of $7$ has to be formed from $9$ boys and $4$ girls. In how many ways can this be done when the committee consists of:
at least $3$ girls?
since at least $3$ girls are to be there in every committee, the committee can consist of
$(a)$ $3$ girls and $4$ boys or
$(b)$ $4$ girls and $3$ boys
$3$ girls and $4$ boys can be selected in $^{4} C_{3} \times^{9} C_{4}$ ways.
$4$ girls and $3$ boys can be selected in $^{4} C_{4} \times^{9} C_{3}$ ways.
Therefore, in this case, required number of ways $=^{4} C_{3} \times^{9} C_{4}+^{4} C_{4} \times^{9} C_{3}$
$=504+84=588$
A committee of $4$ persons is to be formed from $2$ ladies, $2$ old men and $4$ young men such that it includes at least $1$ lady, at least $1$ old man and at most $2$ young men. Then the total number of ways in which this committee can be formed is
A bag contains $5$ black and $6$ red balls. Determine the number of ways in which $2$ black and $3$ red balls can be selected.
Let $S=\{1,2,3, \ldots ., 9\}$. For $k=1,2, \ldots \ldots, 5$, let $N_K$ be the number of subsets of $S$, each containing five elements out of which exactly $k$ are odd. Then $N_1+N_2+N_3+N_4+N_5=$
