No Fireplace With Fireplace Total Victorian Ranch Other Total 14 2 21 21 42

Explanation / Answer

1 a) Number of ways in which 7 programmers be selected from 12, for 7 different assignments = 12P7

= 12!/(12-7)! = 3991680

b) Number of ways in which 7 programmers be selected from 12 for a group project = 12C7 = 12!/(5! x 7!) = 792

6) Probability that house is either Victorian or Ranch or has a fireplace = (9 + 22 + 5)/42 = 6/7
