Hello! :)
I am given the following exercise:
How many arrangements of the numbers $1,2,3, \dots, 2n-1,2n$ exist such that at the even positions there are only even numbers?
How many arrangements are there,such that at least at one position there is an even number?
Since, at the set $\{1,2,3, \dots, 2n-1,2n \}$,there are $n$ even numbers and $n$ odd ones,are there $n! \cdot n!$ arrangements,such that at the even positions there are only even numbers,right?
At the second subquestion,is it maybe $\binom{n}{1} \cdot (n-1)! \cdot n!$ ,or am I wrong? (Blush)
