Question with part b. I am thinking it should be 6 * 3.

OpenStudy (curry):

and for part c, is it supposed to be a trick question? I mean, there's only one path that can begin with N. So wouldn't it just be 1?

@jigglypuff314

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

yes to part b c is asking how many Of Those paths in Part B start with going up?

OpenStudy (curry):

But isn't it still 1.

OpenStudy (curry):

Cause there's only two posisble paths. And either it starts to go east or starts to go north.

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

if you have 18 paths and two possible paths and one of those two possible paths is north then 18 / 2 = number of north paths

OpenStudy (curry):

OOO! that makes sense! thank you!

OpenStudy (curry):

Also can you help me with part e?

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

idk the sum rule, sorry :(

OpenStudy (curry):

Is it just b = c + d?

whats your answer for part a ?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

part b answer is wrong, let me explain why

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

when you said the answer for part b is 3*6, it seems you're assuming the paths are like below : |dw:1447308916291:dw|
