What generating functions can be used to find the number of ways in which postage of r cents can be pasted on an envelope using 1-cent, 3-cent, and 20-cent stamps?
(a) Assume that the order the stamps are pasted on does not matter.
(b) Assume that the stamps are pasted in a row and their order matters.

need steps A small post office has only 4-cent, 6-cent and 10-cent stamps Find a recurrence relation for the number of ways to form postage of n cents if the order of the stamps matters, i.e.. different orderings add to the count a. b. How many ways are there to form postage of 20 cents? Fill in the following chart 10 14 6 8 16 20 0 40 18 Extra Credit: A small post office has only 4-cent, 6-cent and...
algebraic combinatoric 1. Let b be the number of ways to change 6 cents. Find the generating function ". For which n we can actually change n cents this way (that is, bn > 0)? n cents using coins valued 4 and 1. Let b be the number of ways to change 6 cents. Find the generating function ".

Prove the statement n cents of postage can be formed using just 4-cent and 11-cent stamps using mathematical induction, where n ≥ 30. Click and drag the given steps (on the right) to the corresponding step names given on the left) to carry out the inductive steps of the proof, after the inductive hypothesis has already been assumed in (b). Step 1 Replace eight 4-cent stamps by three 11-cent stamps, and we have formed k+ 1 cents in postage (3....

If the order of objects is not of importance, how many ways can nineteen objects be selected three at a time? Why is this result different from the result when order matters?There are blank different ways to select three objects at a time. (Type a whole number.) Explain why this result is different from the result when order matters. Choose the correct answer below. A. When order does not matter, picking the first object before the second object is the...
