There are 100 students at a school and three dormitories A, B, and C with capacities of 25, 35, and 40, respectively. Required:
a. How many ways are there to fill up the dormitories?
b. Suppose that, of the 100 students, 50 are men and 50 arewomen and that A is an all-men's dorm, B is an all-women's dorm andC is co-ed. How many ways are there to fill thedormitories?

a

b

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The number of students are  n =  100

    The number of dormitories  is  k =  3

    The capacity of the first dormitory is  A =  25

     The capacity of the second dormitory is  B =  35

      The capacity of the third dormitory is  c =  40

Generally the number of way to fill the dormitory up is mathematically represented as

=>  

Here ! stands for factorial, so we will be making use of the factorial functionality in our calculators to  evaluated the above equation

=>  

From the question we are told that there are 50 men and  50  women and

     A is  all-men's dorm and  B is all-women's dorm while C is co-ed

So

When A is filled , the number of men that will be remaining to fill dorm C is  50-25 = 25

While when B is filled the number of women that will be remaining to fill dorm C is   50-35 = 15

Generally the number of ways there to fill the dormitories is equivalent to the number of ways of selecting the 25 men and 35 women to fill dormitory A and B plus one more way which is filling dorm C with the remaining students this is  mathematically represented as  

Here C stands for combination hence we will be making use of the combination functionality in our calculators

=>

im not sure though

not only in mathematics, scientific proof also are required in the other field of science. also maths proofs are of particular structure, containing steps and logics. so proving is like doing science, it is science. that's why it is important to prove. 

an inaccurate proof leads to errors, or stating results that are not accurate.  which wil mess the probelm up you dont want this
