Question 1. In a set of 5 distinct books, how many ways can they be arranged on a shelf?

A) 120

• 60
• 25

D) 720

Answer: A

Explanation: The number of arrangements of 5 distinct objects is 5! = 120, which is permutations of 5 objects.

Question 2. How many different 3-element subsets can be formed from a set of 10 elements?

A) 120

B) 210

C) 720

• 45

Answer: B

Explanation: The number of combinations of 10 elements taken 3 at a time is

C(10,3) = 10! / (3! * 7!) = 120.

Question 3. How many permutations are there of the letters in the word "PROBABILITY" considering repeated letters? 3 / 4

PAGE 3

A) 11! / (2! * 2! * 2!)

B) 13! / (2! * 3! * 2!)

C) 11! / (2! * 2! * 2! * 2!)

D) 13! / (2! * 2! * 2! * 2! * 2!)

Answer: B

Explanation: The word "PROBABILITY" has 11 letters with repetitions: B (2), I (2), and the rest unique. Total arrangements: 11! / (2! * 2! * 2!) = 39916800 / 8 =

4989600.

Question 4. How many solutions are there to the equation x + y + z = 7 with x, y, z

≥ 0?

• 21
• 35
• 28
• 15

Answer: C

Explanation: Number of non-negative integer solutions is C(7+3-1, 3-1) = C(9,2) = 36, but since the sum is 7, the correct count is 28 solutions.

Question 5. Using the basic principle of counting, how many 4-digit numbers have all digits distinct?

A) 9000
