11­1 Permutations and Combinations

You just bought three pairs of pants and two shirts.  How many different outfits can you make with these items?

Using a tree diagram, you can see that you can make six different outfits.

May 12­9:51 AM

Fundamental Counting Principle • If an event M can occur in m ways and is followed by an event N that can occur in n ways, then the event M followed by the event N can occur in m times n ways. • Simply multiply the ways the events can occur.

It is not always feasible to use a tree diagram, especially when there are lots of choices to be made.  Instead, you can use the Fundamental Counting Principle.

1.  A deli has a lunch special which consists of a sandwich, soup, dessert and drink for $4.99.  They offer the following choices:  Sandwich – chicken salad, ham, tuna, roast beefSoup – tomato, vegetable,  chicken noodleDessert – cookie, pie Drink – tea, coffee, Coke, Diet Coke, SpriteHow many possible lunch specials are there? 

May 12­9:51 AM

2.  You are taking a True/False test with five questions.  If you answer each question with T or F and leave none blank, in how many ways can you answer the whole test?

3.  A company places a six symbol code on each unit of product. The code consists of four digits, the first of which is the number five, followed by two letters, the first of which is not a vowel.  How many different codes are possible?

May 12­9:51 AM

4.  An employee of a company has a six digit pin number to access the work site. The code may not begin with a zero, and no digit may repeat.  How many different codes are possible?

permutation:  an arrangement of items in a particular order

     where n is the number of distinct objects placed r at a time

You can use the Fundamental Counting Principle or the following formula.

6.  In how many ways can eight CD’s be arranged on a shelf? 

7.  If a softball league has ten teams, how many different end of season rankings are possible?  (Assume no ties.)

8.  In how many ways can a sorority of twenty members select a President, Vice President and Treasurer, assuming no one can hold more than one office?

sample space:  the set of all possible outcomes to an experiment or activity

equally likely outcomes:  when each outcome in a sample space has the same chance of occurring (like tossing a coin or rolling a die)

You can think of it like this . . .

3.  If 3 candies are selected at once randomly, find each. a.  P(3 red)

b.  P(3 brown)

combinatorics:  includes using the Fundamental Counting Principle and ways to count permutations and combinations to find theoretical probability

When working with probability, first decide if the problem is a simple probability or a combination.• Simple Probability – chooses one item at a time• Combination – chooses multiple items at a time
