Find
Problem 2
Let If is a positive integer, find the sum of all values of such that for some constant .
Problem 3
groups of molecules are gathered in a lab. The scientists in the lab randomly assign the molecules into groups of . Within these groups, there will be distinguishable labels (Strong acid, weak acid, strong base, weak base, nonelectrolyte), and each molecule will randomly be assigned a label such that teams can be empty, and each label is unique in the group. Find the number of ways that the molecules can be arranged by the scientists.
Problem 4
people are attending a hotel conference, of which are executives, and of which are speakers. Each person is designated a seat at one of round tables, each containing seats. If executives must sit at least one speaker and executive, there are ways the people can be seated. Find . Assume seats, people, and table rotations are distinguishable.
