1 12-6 Properties of Probability

2 Event A and Event B 1) P(A and then B) = P(A) P(B) 2) P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) 3) P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B)- P(A ∩ B) ** A ∩ B is if both events can occur (overlap) 4) P(not A) = 1 - P(A) 5) P(at least 1) = 1 - P(not A and not B) 1 – P(neither)

3 From the previous example Order doesn’t matter, so it’s called a Combination! (8 books choosing 3)

4 Example 1 I have 12 people on ASB, choose 2 to be on a committee ORDER doesn’t matter! (They don’t have titles)

5 The Difference? (you don’t need to write every word!) I have 12 people on ASB, want to choose 2, 1 for Pres and 1 for VP It’s a different arrangement  Permutation! ORDER matters! You can solve using blanks OR 12 11=132

6 Example 2 13 students try out for soccer team, choose 5 for team No mention of positions or titles Combination! Permutation or Combination? or put in calc

7 Ex. 3—Word “Combos” How many combinations can be formed from the letters in the word NUMBER, taking them: a) 5 at a time? =6 b) 2 at a time? = 15

8 Ex. 4—Co-ed Teams In how many ways can a team be formed having 5 players be chosen from 6 girls and 4 boys: a) If all are eligible? 10 people total: = 252 b) If the team must have 3 girls and 2 boys? 6 girls choose 3, AND 4 boys choose 2 (Multiply!) = 120

9 Ex. 5—Probability with C The Debate team, 4 boys and 8 girls, travel to an out of state match. Their coach can fit 7 in her car. If they get in cars at random, what’s the probability the coach’s car has: a) 2 boys and 5 girls? b) All girls?

10 Ex. 5 Cont. The Debate team, 4 boys and 8 girls, travel to an out of state match. Their coach can fit 7 in her car. If they get in cars at random, what’s the probability the coach’s car has: c) All boys? d) Peter and Manual (2 of the boys)? Peter, Manual, 5 left
