`:.` No of ways `=5xx5xx4xx3xx2xx1=600`
`P_(1) P_(2) P_(3) P_(4) P_(5) P_(6) P_(7) P_(8)`
Given that if `P_(i), P_(j)` play with `i lt j`, then `P_(i)` will win. For the first round, `P_(4)` should be paired...
Given `S_(2)` reaches the semi-finals.
Since all other players `(2^(n) - 1)` are equally likely to win the finals with probability p.
`therefore (2^(n)-1)p+(1)/(4) = 1`
`(2^(n) - 1)p =...
Let A be the event of `P_(1)` winning in third round and B be the event of `P_(2)` winning in first round but ossing in second round. We have
`P(A)(""^(8n-1)C_(n-1))/(""^(8n)C_(n))=1/8`...

Let
W: evetn of drawing a white ball at any draw, and
B: evetn of drawing a black ball at any draw Then
