1 Chapter 11 – Counting Methods Intro to Counting Methods Section 11.1: Counting by Systematic Listing

2 There are 3 ways to systematically list all the possible outcomes of an event: 1. Listing all Possiblities 2. Product Tables 3. Tree Diagrams

3 How many ways can a 6 member club elect a President? Club Members: Aaron, Bob, Carly, Debbie, Eddie and Frank Six Possible Presidents: Aaron, Bob, Carly, Debbie, Eddie, Frank

4 How many ways can a 6 member club elect a President and Vice President? Systematic Listing of Club Members: Aaron, Bob, Carly, Debbie, Eddie, Frank For simplicity lets let: A =Aaron, B=Bob, C =Carly, D =Debbie, E =Eddie, F =Frank

5 We will list the President first and the Vice President second. Choose someone to be President. A Then list all the possible Vice Presidents with your President.

6 We will list the President first and the Vice President second. Choose someone to be President. AB Then list all the possible Vice Presidents with your President. AC AD AE AF

7 Choose another President and match all the possible Vice Presents with that President. AB AC AD AE AF BA BC BD BE BF

8 Continue this process until you have listed all possible President-Vice President combinations. AB AC AD AE AF BA BC BD BE BF CA CB CD CE CF DA DB DC DE DF EA EB EC ED EF FA FB FC FD FE Is the combination AB the same as BA? Why or why not?

9 Try this one on your own… Consider two six sided cubes. The first one is numbered 1 – 6 and the second one is lettered A – F. What are all the possible outcomes of rolling these two cubes together?

11 2. Product Tables When we have an event that involves two tasks (i.e. Choosing a President and a Vice President or rolling two cubes) we can use a product table to show all possible combinations.

12 Listing the presidents across the top and vice presidents along the side we have…. AB AC AD AE AF BA BC BD BE BF CA CB CD CE CF DA DB DC DE DF EA EB EC ED EF Vice President President ABCDEFABCDEF A B C D E F FA FB FC FD FE

13 Construct a product table to show all the possible outcomes for our numbered and lettered cubes problem. Letter Cube Number Cube ABCDEFABCDEF 1 2 3 4 5 6 1A2A3A4A5A6A 1B2B3B4B5B6B 1C2C3C4C5C6C 1D2D3D4D5D6D 1E2E3E4E5E6E 1F2F3F4F5F6F

14 3. Tree Diagrams Tree diagrams are another way to systematically show all possible outcomes. Tree diagrams are useful for events containing three or more parts.

15 Here is a tree diagram of our President- Vice President problem. Vice PresidentPresident ABDEFABDEF A ABCDEABCDE ABCDFABCDF ABCEFABCEF ACDEFACDEF BCDEFBCDEF B C D E F

16 Construct a tree diagram to show all the possible outcomes for our numbered and lettered cubes problem.

18 Example 7a: Michelle’s computer printer allows for optional settings with a panel of four on-off switches. Construct a tree diagram to show all the possible ways the switches can be set.

19 On Off On Off On Off On Off On Off On Off On Off On Off

20 Notice if we let ON be represented by 0, and OFF represented by 1

21 Example 7b: Michelle’s computer printer allows for optional settings with a panel of four on-off switches. Construct a tree diagram to show all the possible ways the switches can be set if no two adjacent switches can both be off.

22 On Off On Off On Off On Off On Off On Off On Off On Off

23 On Off On On Off On Off On Off On On Off On Off On Off

24 Notice if we let ON be represented by 0, and OFF represented by 1

25 Example 8: Aaron, Bobby, Chuck and Debbie have tickets for four reserved seats in a row at a concert. What are the different ways they can seat themselves so that Aaron and Bobby will sit next to each other? Construct a tree diagram.
