Answer #1

(a)

Total ways to line up 10 members = 10!

ways in which bride is next to groom = 9! x 2 (9! for 9 persons considering bride and groom as one entity and multiplied by 2 because bride and groom may interchange there place)

How many ways are there for the wedding party to line up in which the bride is not next to the groom = 10! - 2*9!

(b)

Groom at leftmost position = 9! (fix groom position, 9 persons left)

ways for the wedding party to line up if the groom is not in the leftmost position = 10! - 9!

(c)

ways for the wedding party to line up if the groom is not at one end (i.e. in the leftmost or rightmost positions) = 10! - 2*9!

(d)

90 integers
