Q64 / 155 · WBJEE 2018 · Mathematics
The number of selection of $n$ objects from $2 n$ objects of which $n$ are identical and the rest are different, is
- Correct answerA$2^{n}$
- B$2^{n-1}$
- C$2^{n}-1$
- D$2^{n-1}+1$
Solution
Number of ways of selection of $n$ objects from $2 n$ objects, where as $n$ objects are identical in out of $2 n$ objects. $n$ identical and no different object $=1$ ways
$$
={ }^{n} C_{0}
$$
$n-1$ identical and 1 different object $=1 \times{ }^{n} C_{1}$
$n-2$ identical and 2 different object $=1 \times{ }^{n} C_{2}$
0 identical and $n$ different objects $=1 \times{ }^{n} C_{n}$
$$
={ }^{n} C_{0}+{ }^{n} C_{1}+{ }^{n} C_{2}+\ldots \ldots+{ }^{n} C_{n}=2^{n}
$$
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
