No of binary trees with n labelled nodes
So I followed this link and have doubt regarding the no of ways of choosing edges with $n$ labelled nodes. Let's say I have 3 nodes - $A, B, C$ $l_X$ : left child of a node $X$ $r_X$ : right child of a node $X$ Now, any ... be considered that both $(l_A,r_A)$ and $(r_A,l_A)$ produces 1 unique binary trees each. Is this the correct way to think about this?

Self Doubt : Integer Solution
Find the number of ways 5 dices can be rolled to get a sum of 25. While solving this question, the way we solve it is $x_1+x_2+x_3+x_4+x_5$ $=25$ where $1<=x_i<=6$ So we replace $x_i$ by $y_i =6-x_i$ , which is $x_i=6-y_i$ substituting ... first problem all the dices should have value $>0$ , so why in that case we haven't made $x_i=y_i+1$ for all the cases?

Self Doubt: Combinatorics
In how many ways a garland maker can stitch the flowers to make a garland with 4 red roses(distinct) and 10 white roses(distinct) so that no 2 red roses come together. My doubt is should we take (n-1)!/2 * 10P4 or (n-1)! * 10P4? As it is a case of non-living object y should we make distinction between clockwise and anticlockwise? (n-1)!/2 is more apt right?
