Identical and different object distribution among children

Identical and different object distribution among children

In how many ways can we distribute 12 identical apples and 7 distinguishable cookies among 5 children.. My answer is binom125-112 cdot 57 Is it correct Explanation: Since there is no restriction to distribute the apples, I lined up the 12 apples and split them into 5 groups using the stars method and for the second one, It is only like assigning a cookie to each child. What if it says, 7 distinguishable cookies among 5 children so that everyone gets at least one My answer is: binom75 5 52 We give the kids 5 cookies and they can be arranged in 5 ways, then we normally distribute the remaining cookies. Am I missing anything Are there any notes or something you would like to add up or advice

Your solution of first question is perfectly correct. You didnt miss anything. For the second question: Let A_i be the set of all distributions in which i-th children dont get a cookie. Then A_i 47 for each i. A_icap A_j37 for each ine j A_icap A_jcap A_k27 for each ine jne kne i A_icap A_jcap A_kcap A_l1 for all pairvise different i,j,k,l Now we are interested in Big bigcap_i1n overline A_iBig Big; overlinebigcup_i1n A_i;Big 57-Big; bigcup_i1n A_i;Big We have by PIE: begineqnarray Big; bigcup_i1n A_i;Big sum_i1n Big; A_i Big - sum_i1n Big;A_icap A_j Big... 5cdot 47-10cdot 3710cdot 27-50 endeqnarray So the finaly answer is 57-5cdot 4710cdot 37-5cdot 271.
