Lecture 4, Problem 4.29

I think the answer should be 44, but the answer says that it is 76. I got 44 because the answer is $\dfrac{5!}{0!} - \dfrac{5!}{1!} + \dfrac{5!}{2!} - \dfrac{5!}{3!} + \dfrac{5!}{4!} - \dfrac{5!}{5!}$. I think I'm right, and the answer should be 44.

You are correct, the solution was missing one term. The quiz should be displaying the correct solution now. Thanks for letting us know!
