Abstract
In this presentation, we will give an expository proof of Fermat's Combinatorial Identity and Bonferroni's Inequality. Fermat's Combinatorial Identity will be explained using different counting techniques. Bonferroni's Inequality deals with probabilities of events and will be proven using induction.
