Explanation:

(a) The shop has 6 types of croissants of which a dozen(12) has to be selected

Therefore n=6, r=12

Repetition of croissants is permitted

And C(n+r-1, r)

C(6+12-1, 12) = C(17, 12) = 17!÷ 12!(17-12)! = 17!÷12! 5! =6 188

(b) The shop has 6 types of croissants of which three dozen(36) has to be selected

Therefore n=6, r=36

Repetition of croissants is permitted

And C(n+r-1, r)

C(6+36-1, 12) = C(41, 36) = 41!÷ 36!(41-36)! = 41!÷36! 5! = 749 398

(c) The shop has 6 types of croissants of which two dozen(24) has to be selected

Let us first select 2 of each kind which 12 croissants in total. Then we still need to select the remaining 12 croissants

Therefore n=6, r=12

Repetition of croissants is permitted

And C(n+r-1, r)

C(6+12-1, 12) = C(17, 12) = 17!÷ 12!(17-12)! = 17!÷12! 5! =6 188

(d) The shop has 5 types of croissants of which two dozen(24) has to be selected

Therefore n=5, r=24

Repetition of croissants is permitted

And C(n+r-1, r)

C(5+24-1, 24) = C(28, 24) = 28!÷ 24!(28-24)! = 28!÷24! 4! = 20 475

(1,4) is on graph of f(x)

f(1) = 4

so 1/4 f(x)

1/4 f(1)

1/4. ×4

1

so point for function 1/4. f(x) is (1,1)
