Consider the following combinatorial identity:

(a) Present a combinatorial argument for this identity by considering a set of n people and determining, in two ways, the number of possible selections of a committee of any size and a chairperson for the committee.

(b) Verify the following identity for n = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5:

For a combinatorial proof of the preceding, consider a set of n people and argue that both sides of the identity represent the number of different selections of a committee, its chairperson, and its secretary (possibly the same as the chairperson).

(c) Now argue that
