5. Class election Ok, so we have 16 students in the class and we are going to make a council of 3 student representatives. A pres, a vice pres and a treasure. How many ways can we create our trio? Does ‘order’ matter…?

7. Vocabulary Permutation – is an ordered arrangement in which r objects are chosen from n distinct (different) objects and repetition is not allowed. The symbol n P r represents the number of permutations of r objects selected from n objects. Combination – is a collection, without regard to order, of n distinct objects without repetition. The symbol n C r represents the number of combinations of n objects taken r at a time..

8. Vocabulary Permutation – is an ordered arrangement in which r objects are chosen from n distinct (different) objects and repetition is not allowed. The symbol n P r represents the number of permutations of r objects selected from n objects. How would I represent the class election example?! Combination – is a collection, without regard to order, of n distinct objects without repetition. The symbol n C r represents the number of combinations of n objects taken r at a time. How would I represent the class election example?!

9. Vocabulary Fundamental Counting Principle –Use this when want to find the total ways (number) a task can occur. (license plate problem) Multiply! –(ABCDEF) = n(A) * n(B) *n(C) * n(D) * n(E) * n(F)

10. Vocabulary Handout Ok, so in your own words define Permutation and Combination Draw an example to help you remember… -you can wait on rating “my understanding” until the end of class…

11. Permutations Number of Permutations of n Distinct Objects taken r at a time: N objects are distinct Once used an object cannot be repeated Order is important n! n P r = ----------- (n – r)! Factorial – n! is defined to be n! = n∙(n- 1)∙(n-2)∙(n-3)….. (3)∙(2)∙(1)

12. Permutations Number of Permutations of n Distinct Objects taken r at a time: N objects are distinct Once used an object cannot be repeated Order is important n! n P r = ----------- (n – r)! How would I represent the class election example?!

13. Combinations Number of Combinations of n Distinct Objects taken r at a time: N objects are distinct Once used an object cannot be repeated (no repetition) Order is not important n! n C r = ----------- r!(n – r)! How would I represent the class election example?!

14. Combinations Number of Combinations of n Distinct Objects taken r at a time: N objects are distinct Once used an object cannot be repeated (no repetition) Order is not important n! n C r = ----------- r!(n – r)!

15. Combinations Number of Combinations of n Distinct Objects taken r at a time: N objects are distinct Once used an object cannot be repeated (no repetition) Order is not important n! n C r = ----------- r!(n – r)! r! in the denominator eliminates the double count!! In other words, ABC and BAC are the SAME in a combination! *in a permutation, they are different…think of pres, vp and treas…

16. How to Tell ●Is a problem a permutation or a combination? ●One way to tell  Write down one possible solution (i.e. Roger, Rick, Randy)  Switch the order of two of the elements (i.e. Rick, Roger, Randy) ●Is this the same result?  If no – this is a permutation – order matters  If yes – this is a combination – order does not matter

17. Vocabulary Handout Ok, so now how about your own example…you may put this is the further understanding box And rate “my understanding” …1 is the least (amount of understanding )and 4 is the most

18. Your Turn… Partner Up – pairs of 2 or groups of 3 and work on CW…I will be coming around to help and check We MISSED TWO DAYS AND I WAS IN A MEETING TUESDAY SO THIS IS OUR ONLY DAY THIS WEEK AND WE NEED TO STAY FOCUSED…grrrrreat

19. Example 1 If there are 3 different colors of paint (red, blue, green) that can be used to paint 2 different types of toy cars (race car, police car), then how many different toys can there be?

20. Example 1 Illustrated A tree diagram of the different possibilities Red Blue Green Blue Race Car Blue Police Car Green Race Car Green Police CarRed Race CarRed Police Car Race Police Race PoliceRacePolice PaintCarPossibilities

21. Example 2 In a horse racing “Trifecta”, a gambler must pick which horse comes in first, which second, and which third. If there are 8 horses in the race, and every order of finish is equally likely, what is the chance that any ticket is a winning ticket? The probability that any one ticket is a winning ticket is 1 out of 8 P 3, or 1 out of 336

22. Permutations with replacement Number of Permutations of n Distinct Items taken r at a time with replacement: N objects are distinct Once used an object can be repeated (replacement) Order is important P = n r

23. Example 3 Suppose a computer requires 8 characters for a password. The first character must be a letter, but the remaining seven characters can be either a letter or a digit (0 thru 9). The password is not case-sensitive. How many passwords are possible on this computer? 26 36 7 = 2.037 x 10 12

24. Example 4 If there are 8 researchers and 3 of them are to be chosen to go to a meeting, how many different groupings can be chosen?

25. Permutations – non-distinct items Number of Permutations with Non-distinct Items: N objects are not distinct K different groups n! P = --------------------- where n = n 1 + n 2 + … + n k n 1 !∙n 2 !∙ ….∙n k !

26. Example 5 How many different vertical arrangements are there of 9 flags if 4 are white, 3 are blue and 2 are red? 9! 987654! 98765 ----------- = ------------------ = --------------- = 1260 4!3!2! 4!3!2! 32121

27. Permutation vs Combination Comparing the description of a permutation with the description of a combination The only difference is whether order matters PermutationCombination Order mattersOrder does not matter Choose r objects Out of n objects No repetition

28. Multiplication Rule of Counting If a task consists of a sequence of choices in which there are p selections for the first item, q selections for the second item, and r choices for the third item, and so on, then the task of making these selections can be done in p ∙ q ∙ r ∙ ….. different ways The classical method, when all outcomes are equally likely, involves counting the number of ways something can occur This section includes techniques for counting the number of results in a series of choices, under several different scenarios

29. Vocabulary Factorial – n! is defined to be n! = n∙(n-1)∙(n-2)∙(n- 3)….. (3)∙(2)∙(1) Permutation – is an ordered arrangement in which r objects are chosen from n distinct (different) objects and repetition is not allowed. The symbol n P r represents the number of permutations of r objects selected from n objects. Combination – is a collection, without regard to order, of n distinct objects without repetition. The symbol n C r represents the number of combinations of n objects taken r at a time..

30. Summary and Homework Summary –The Multiplication Rule counts the number of possible sequences of items –Permutations and combinations count the number of ways of arranging items, with permutations when the order matters and combinations when the order does not matter –Permutations and combinations are used to compute probabilities in the classical method Homework
