Question: `q004. If a fair coin is flipped 4 times, how many of the outcomes contain exactly two 'heads'?
YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Your solution:
C(4, 2) = 6
3
Ok
*********************************************
Question: `q005. If a fair coin is flipped 7 times, how many of the outcomes contain exactly three 'heads'?
YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Your solution:
35 ways to obtain 3 'heads' on 7 flips
3
Ok
*********************************************
Question: `q006. If we flip a fair coin 6 times, in how many ways can we get no 'heads'?
In how many ways can we get exactly one 'head'?
In how many ways can we get exactly two 'heads'?
In how many ways can we get exactly three 'heads'?
In how many ways can we get exactly four 'heads'?
In how many ways can we get exactly five 'heads'?
In how many ways can we get exactly six 'heads'?
In how many ways can we get exactly seven 'heads'?
YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Your solution:
he number of ways to get exactly one 'head' is C(6,1) = 6.
The number of ways to get exactly two 'heads' is C(6,2) = 15.
The number of ways to get exactly three 'heads' is C(6,3) = 20.
The number of ways to get exactly four 'heads' is C(6,4) = 15.
The number of ways to get exactly five 'heads' is C(6,5) = 6.
The number of ways to get exactly six 'heads' is C(6,6) = 1.
These numbers form the n = 6 row of Pascal's Triangle:
1 6 15 20 15 6 1
3
Ok
*********************************************
Question: `q007. List all the subsets of the set {a, b}.
Then do the same for the set {a,b,c}.
Then do the same for the set {a,b,c,d}.
YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Your solution:
{}{ }, {a}, {b}, {a, b}, {c}, {a, c}, {b, c} and {a, b, c}
3
Ok
*********************************************
Question: `q008. How many subsets would there be of the set {a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h}?
YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Your solution:
2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 = 256 subsets of the given set, which has 8 elements
3
Ok
*********************************************
Question: `q009. How many 4-element subsets would there be of the set {a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h}?
YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Your solution:
C(8, 4) = 8 * 7 * 6 * 5 / ( 4 * 3 * 2 * 1) = 70
2
Ok
*********************************************
Question: `q010. How many subsets of the set {a,b,c,d} contain 4 elements?
How many subsets of the set {a,b,c,d} contain 3 elements?
How many subsets of the set {a,b,c,d} contain 2 elements?
How many subsets of the set {a,b,c,d} contain 1 elements?
How many subsets of the set {a,b,c,d} contain no elements?
YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Your solution:
The number of 3-element subsets is C(4,3) = 4.
The number of 2-element subsets is C(4,2) = 6.
The number of 1-element subsets is C(4,1) = 4.
The number of 0-element subsets is C(4,0) = 1.

I need to see the questions so I can be sure what your answers mean. Most of the time I can tell, but I'm dealing with information that comes in from over 1000 different files, containing a total of about 10 000 questions. While I'm familiar with the content and sequencing of the questions, having written them all, and know what I'm looking for, different students will answer these questions in different ways and I need to be able to relate your answers to the specific wording of each question.
When reviewing my responses you will also need to be able to relate your answers and my comments to the specifics of the original document.
So it will be important for you on future documents to insert your responses into a copy of the original document, according to instructions, without otherwise changing any of the content of the original document.
This will ensure you of the best possible feedback on your work.
