It means I did the chain with every 3rd position there is a Martian, but that does not tell me how to write the equation to present the proper answer. If I factor out each element 5! = 120 * 10! = 3628800 *8! =40320 which gives me an answer of 1.5801827328E15. Since we are working with...

Typos are possible Could be a typo in the back of the book. In my Discrete Math we are finding almost 20 errors per section. =o) Contact your teacher?

DIdn't you save your books from your classes? I have not thrown out any of mine. They will become my reference desk until I am capable of remembering everything in my field! LOL You might look at Amazon.com to see if they have the books you want or need! Its a good idea to also check out...

In how many ways can 5 distinct Martians, ten distinct Vesuvians and eight distinct Jovians wait together in line if no two Martains stand together> 2. 10_p_5 = 10! & 5! but what about 8? and 2? 3. 10! = 10*9*8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1 8! = 8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1 5! =...

If you don't have to take Discrete Math for your Chemistry degree, then I would opt for Statistics. The only reason I can say this is because Discrete Math is for people with an IT link to programming. =o) Algorithms, Trominoes and Pigeon Hole Principles which (this one) might pertain to...
