In a high school, a committee has to be formed from a group of 6 boys
M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, M6 and 5 girls G1, G2, G3, G4, G5.
(i) Let α1 be the total number of ways in which the committee can be formed such that the committee has 5 members, having exactly 3 boys and 2 girls.
(ii) Let α2 be the total number of ways in which the committee can be formed such that the committee has at least 2 members, and having an equal number of boys and girls.
(iii) Let α3 be the total number of ways in which the committee can be formed such that the committee has 5 members, at least 2 of them being girls.
(iv) Let α4 be the total number of ways in which the committee can be formed such that the committee has 4 members, having at least 2 girls and such that both M1 and G1 are NOT in the committee together.

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) a-s;b-u;c-t;d-q;

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

(1) \(\alpha_1=\) \(\binom{6}{3} \quad\binom{5}{2}=200\)
So \(P \rightarrow 4\)
(2) \(\alpha_2=\binom{6}{1}\binom{5}{1}+\binom{6}{2}\binom{5}{2}+\binom{6}{3}\binom{2}{3}\) \(+~\binom{6}{4}\binom{5}{4}+\binom{6}{5}\binom{5}{5}\)
\(=\binom{11}{5}-1=461\)
So \(Q \rightarrow 6\)
(3) \(\alpha_3=\binom{5}{2}\binom{6}{3}+\binom{5}{3}\binom{6}{2}+\binom{5}{4}\binom{6}{1}\) \(+~\binom{5}{5}\binom{6}{0}\)
\(=\binom{11}{5}-\binom{5}{0}\binom{6}{5}-\binom{5}{1}\binom{6}{4}=381\)
So \(R \rightarrow 5\)
(4) \(\alpha_2=\binom{5}{2}\binom{6}{2}-\binom{4}{1}\binom{5}{1}+\binom{5}{3}\binom{6}{1}\) \(-~\binom{4}{2}\binom{1}{1}+\binom{5}{4}=189\)
So \(S \rightarrow 2\)
