11.8 Combinations A combination of items occurs when The items are selected from the same group. No item is used more than once. The order of items makes no difference. Note: Permutation problems involve situations in which order matters. Combination problems involve situations in which the order of items makes no difference.

Examples 1 – 2: Determine which involve permutations and which involve combinations. Example 1: Six students are running for student government president, vice-president and treasure. The student with the greatest number of votes becomes the president, the second highest vote-getter becomes vice-president, and the student who gets the third largest number of votes will be treasurer. How many different outcomes are possible? Example 2: Six people are on the board of supervisors for your neighborhood park. A three-person committee is needed to study the possibility of expanding the park. How many different committees could be formed from the six people?

Comparing Combinations and Permutations Given the letters: A,B,C,D: We can compare how many permutations and how many combinations are possible if we chose 3 letters at a time:

The number of possible combinations if r items are taken from n items is: Example 3: While visiting New York City, the Friedmans are interested in visiting 8 museums but have time to visit only 3. In how many ways can the Friedmans select 3 of the 8 museums to visit?

Example 4: Jan Funkhauser has 10 different cut flowers from which she will choose 6 to use in a floral arrangement. How many different ways can she do so? Example 5: How many three-person committees could be formed from 8 people?

Example 6: At the Royal Dynasty Chinese restaurant, dinner for eight people consists of 3 items from column A, 4 items from column B, and 3 items from column C. If columns A, B, and C have 5, 7, and 6 items, respectively, how many different dinner combinations are possible? Example 7: In December, 2009, the U.S Senate consisted of 60 Democrats and 40 Republicans. How many committees can be formed if each committee must have 3 Democrats and 2 Republicans?
