Combinatorics deals with problems involving counting. For example, "How many distinct arrangements of N distinct objects in M spaces on a circle are possible?" is a typical problem in combinatorics. This kind of counting is sometimes used in the modeling of several physical phenomena. Often, in such models, the different combinatorial possibilities are assigned probability values. Assigning probabilities enables the computation of the average values of physical quantities. Consider the following statements: P: Combinatorics is always invoked in the modeling of physical phenomena. Q: Modeling some physical phenomena involves assigning probabilities to combinatorial possibilities in order to compute average values of physical quantities. Based on the passage above, what can be inferred about statements P and Q?

"I put the brown paper in my pocket along with the chalks, and possibly other things. I suppose every one must have reflected how primeval and how poetical are the things that one carries in one's pocket: the pocket-knife, for instance the type of all human tools, the infant of the sword.
