8. L2 Supplementary Notes Page 8 Increasing Triples l Can we count using general product principle? n # of possible values for i?  n-2 n # of possible values for j?  Depends on value of i!  Violates condition of general product principle

9. L2 Supplementary Notes Page 9 Use Bijection Principle l n=4 l All increasing triples listed. l Do we have all the subsets? How about subset {2, 1, 3}? n It is the same as {1, 2, 3}

11. L2 Supplementary Notes Page 11 Increasing Triples

12. L2 Supplementary Notes Page 12 Increasing Triples l Same as n The number of 3-element subsets from {1, 2, …, n} n What is this number? l First consider another number n The number of 3-element permutations from {1, 2, …, n}

13. L2 Supplementary Notes Page 13 l Order matters, not required to be increasing l 3-element permutations from {1, 2, 3, 4}

14. L2 Supplementary Notes Page 14 l General product principle can be applied here although cannot for increasing triples. Why?
