4/26 Learning target To be able to find the number ways of an event, combination,permutation In class Notes/exit HW: 12-2 Skills practice# 1-10 first column &13- 24omit 20,24 12-2 Practice #13-24 omit 14,17 Warm up There are 15 volleyball players on the team.

Permutation Order matters!!! There is a “ranking” or “position” involved. Example : There are 32 students in Finite Math class. We are asked to elect a president, vice-president, and secretary of our class. How many outcomes are possible? P(32,3)=29760
Combination Order does NOT matter!!! “committee” Example: There are 10 people on the SBDM. How many ways can a subcommittee be formed of 4 people? C(10,4)=210
Multiple Events (And=multiply Or=Add If you are choosing more than one object from different categories. Example: There are 10 boys and 15 girls. How many ways can a team consisting of 3 boys and 2 girls be formed? C(10,3)*C(15,2)= 120 * 105=12600
