Permutations and Combinations Class 11 OP Malhotra Exe-12D Solution.
Que-1: Find the value of:
(i) 5C2
(ii) 10C4
(iii) 50C47
Sol: (i) 5C2 = 5! / {(5−2)!2!} = 5!/(3!.2!)
= (5×4×3!)(3!×2) = 10
(ii) 10C4 = 10! / {(10−4)!4!} = 10!/(6!.4!)
= (10×9×8×7×6!)/(6!×4×3×2×1) = 210
(iii) 50C47 = 50! / {(50−47)!47!} = 50!/(3!.47!)
= (50×49×48×47!)/(6×47!) = 19600
Que-2: Evaluate :
(i) C(15, 14)
(ii) C(8, 5)
(iii) 11C2
Sol: (i) C(15, 14) = 15C14 = 15!/(1!.14!) = 15
(ii) C(8, 5) = 8C5 = (8!/3!.5!) = (8×7×6×5!)/(6×5!) = 56
(iii) 11C2 = (11!/(2!.9!) = (11×10×9!)/(2!×9!) = 55
Que-3: Evaluate:
(i) C(19, 17) + C(19, 18)
(ii) C(31, 26) – C(30, 26)
Sol: (i) C (19, 17) + C(19, 18) = 19C17 + 19C18
= {19!/(2!.17!)} + {19!/(1!.18!)}
= {(19×18)/2} + 19
= 171 + 19 = 190
(ii) C(31, 26) – C (30, 26) = 31C26 – 30C26
= {31!/(5!.26!)} – {30!/(4!.26!)}
= {(31⋅30!)/(5⋅4!26!)} – {30!/(4!.26!)}
= {30!/(26!.4!)} [(31/5)−1]
= (30×29×28×27)/(4×3×2×1) × (26/5) = 142506
Que-4: If 4P2 = n 4C2, find n.
Sol: Given 4C2 = n. 4C2
⇒ 4!/2! = n . {4!/(2!.2!)}
⇒ n = 2! = 2
Que-5: If nC4 = nC6, find n.
Sol: Given nC4 = nC6 ⇒ n = 4 + 6 = 10
[if nCr = nCs Then r = s or r + s = n]
Que-6: If C (2n, 3) : C(n, 2) = 12 : 1, find n.
Sol: Given C (2n, 3) : C(n, 2) = 12 : 1 …(1)
⇒ (2nC3) / (nC2) = 12/1
⇒ {2n(2n−1)(2n−2)} / {3n(n−1)} = 12/1
⇒ n(2n – 1)(n – 1) = 9n(n – 1)
⇒ n(n – 1)[2n – 1 – 9] = 0
⇒ n = 0, 1, 5
but n = 0, 1 does not satisfies eqn. (1).
Thus n = 5
Que-7: If nCr : nCr+1 = 1 : 2
and nCr+1 : nCr+2 = 2 : 3
determine the values of n and r.
Sol: Given nCr : nCr+1 = 1 : 2
⇒ [n!/{(n−r)!r!}] / [n!/{(n−r−1)!(r+1)!}] = 1/2
⇒ [n!/{(n−r)!r!}] × [{(n−r−1)!(r+1)!}/n!] = 1/2
⇒ (r+1)/(n−r) = 1/2
⇒ 2r + 2 = n – r
⇒ n – 3r = 2 …(1)
and nC(r+1) : nC(r+2) = 2 : 3

⇒ 3r + 6 = 2n – 2r -2
⇒ 2n – 5r = 8 …(2)
eqn. (2) – 2 eqn. (1); we have
r = 8 – 4 = 4
∴ from (1) ; n – 12 = 2 ⇒ n = 14
Que-8: If C(n, 10) = C(n, 12), determine C(n, 5).
Sol: Given C(n, 10) = C(n, 12)
⇒ nC10 = nC12
⇒ n = 10 + 12 = 22
[if nCr = nCs ⇒ r = s ⇒ r + s = n]
∴ C(n, 5) = nC5 = 22C5
= 22!/(17!.5!)
= (22×21×20×19×18)/(5×4×3×2)
= 26334
Que-9: If C (2n, r) = C(2n, r + 2), find r in terms of n.
Sol: Given C(2n, r) = C(2n, r + 2)
⇒ 2nCr = 2nCr+2
⇒ {2n!/{(2n−r)!r!}} = [2n!/{(2n−r−2)!(r+2)!}]
⇒ [(r+2)!/r!] = [(2n−r)!/(2n−r−2)!]
⇒ (r + 2)(r + 1) = (2n – r)(2n – r – 1)
⇒ r2 + 3r + 2 = 4n2 + r2 -4nr – 2n + r
⇒ 4n2 – 4nr – 2n – 2r – 2 = 0
⇒ 2n2 – 2nr – n – r – 1 =0
⇒ 2n2 – n(2r + 1) – r – 1 = 0
⇒ n = [(2r+1)±{√((2r+1)²+8(r+1))}]/4
⇒ n = [(2r+1)±√(2r+3)²]/4
⇒ n = (2r+1±2r+3)/4 = (4r+4)/4,
since n can’t be fractional ∴ n = r + 1
Que-10: The value of 50C4 + {∑6(r=1) (56−r)C3 is
(a) 55C4
(b) 55C3
(c) 56C3
(d) 56C4
Sol: 50C4 + {∑6(r=1) (56−r)C3
= 50C4 + 55C3 + 54C3 + 53C3 + 52C3 +51C3 + 50C3
= (50C3 + 50C4) + 51C3 + 52C3 + 53C3 + 54C3 + 55C3 [∵ nCr + nCr – 1 = n+1Cr]
= (51C4 + 51C3) + 52C3 + 53C3 + 54C3 + 55C3
= (52C4 + 52C3) + 53C3 + 54C3 + 55C3
= (53C4 + 53C3) + 54C3 + 55C3
= (54C4 + 54C3) + 55C3
= 55C4 + 55C3 = 56C4
∴ Ans (d)
Que-11: n – 1C3 + n – 1C4 > nC3 if
(a) n > 7
(b) n ≥ 7
(c) n > 6
(d) n ≥ 6
Sol: Given : n – 1C3 + n – 1C4 > nC3
