उत्तर

Total number of lamps = 10

The total number of ways in which hall can be illuminated is equal to the number of selection of one or more items out of n different items.

i.e. nC1 + nC2 + nC3 + nC4 + ... + nCn = 2n – 1

From Binomial expansion

We have nC0 + nC1 + nC2 + ... + nCn = 2n

So total number of ways = 10C1 + 10C2 + 10C3 + ... + 10C10

= 210 – 1

= 1024 – 1

= 1023

Hence, the required number of possible ways = 1023.
