    Calculating Probability of Even Numbers with Loaded Die

    That's just it - I don't understand this. I guess I see where P(2)*P(3) = P(6) but where I get lost is P(1)=3P(2), and P(1)+P(2)+..P(6)=1.

    How Do You Expand (2c - 3d)^5?

    Dontdisturbmycircles, I can't thank you enough for your help - It makes sense now! Here's the final answer: 32x^5 - 240x^4d + 720x^3d^2 - 1080x^2d^3 + 810xd^4 - 243d^5

    How Do You Expand (2c - 3d)^5?

    Ok - Here's where I am at this point: 5!/5!0! (32X^5) + 5!/4!1! (16x^4)(-3d) + 5!/3!2! (8x^3)(9d^2) + 5!/2!3! (4x^2)(-27d^3) + 5!/1!4! (2x)(81d^4) + 5!/0!5! (-243d^5) Here is where I'm stuck - I have 32^5 + 5*4*3*2/4!1! ?? Is this right?

    How Do You Expand (2c - 3d)^5?

    I'm still confused on that. Breaking down the possibilities is where I get confused: (a + b)^5 = aaaaa + aaaab + aaabb + aabbb + abbbb + bbbbb I'm lost!

    I am a little confused at how to solve the Permutations

    Right - Because there are 18 Vesuvians and Jovians, the Martians can either fit in the front of the line, middle or end of the line. In which case there would be 19 spots where they could fit in line. P(19,5) = 1,395,360
