ques 36)in an examination there are three multiple choice questions and each question has 4 choices.
number of ways in which a student can fail to get all the answers correct? ques 37) a function is selected at random from all the functions of the set A= (1,2,3,...N) in to self. the probability that the function selected is one to one is? |

There is only 1 way in which a student can answer all the questions correctly
so no. Of ways in wich a student fail to get all the answers is the same as the no of ways in which he attempts atleat 1 ques incorrectly so this is equal to total no. Of ways - 1(way in which all answers are correct) = 4^3-1

Hi Manisha, Sample space= n^n f: A->A can be one-to-one when for f(1) we have 1..n .ie n choices for f(2) n-1 choices... ... f(n). 1 choice
No. of one-one mappings possible= n(n-1)...1 ie. ans is n!/(n^n) Rahul(p....u) On Tue, May 13, 2014 at 11:28 PM, manisha sachdeva [via Discussion forum] <[hidden email]> wrote: ques 36)in an examination there are three multiple choice questions and each question has 4 choices.

@manisha
Total no of functions fr the set to itself is n^n.. n favourable cases is n! |

if we take f: A -> A
say 1 belongs to A, function f can be such that f(1) can be 1 or 2 or ...n. ie total n. and for every x belongs to A, n possibilities exist... thus n^n On Wed, May 14, 2014 at 1:44 AM, manisha sachdeva [via Discussion forum] <[hidden email]> wrote:
