Independent Events: Events that do not affect each other Sample Space: List of all possible outcomes Fundamental Counting Principle: If events are independent, the number of ways both can occur is the product of the number possible outcomes for each event. Permutation: An arrangement in which ORDER MATTERS
5
In how many unique orders can 5 people sit in a row of chairs? In how many orders can the letters of the word “pencil” be arranged? In how many ways can five people place first, second, and third in a race?
7
The goal: Find the number of possible arrangements in the word MISSISSIPPI
8
Calculate the following factorial values: 0! = 1! = 2! = 3! = 4! = 5! = 6! = 7! =
9
Determine the number of unique arrangements created by the following sets of letters and complete the chart: Do you notice any patterns? **Hint: Factorials! No Repeats2 Same Letters3 Same Letters 3 Letterscowbee- 4 Lettershorntreeepee 5 Lettersangleigloocheese
10
How many arrangements could be created from the letters in “cheese” if only the e’s can be moved and are distinct from each other (try using e 1 e 2 e 3 ) C H __ __ S __ How might this help you develop a formula?
11
In how many orders can you sit 3 people around a table? (Careful – no “beginning point”) 4 people? 5 people? Do you notice a pattern?
12
The chart below shows information about Math Club members: In how many ways could a boy OR girl be selected? In how many ways could a sophomore OR a girl be selected? If order matters, in how many ways could two boys be selected? (A boy AND a boy)
13
Events are mutually exclusive if one excludes the other from happening. n(A or B) = n(A) + n(B) If events are non-mutually exclusive, be careful to subtract the number of ways the events can overlap! n(A or B) = n(A) + n(B) – n(A ∩ B) Multiple Dependent Events: n(A and B) = n(A) · n(B | A), where n(B | A) is the number of ways event B can occur after A occurs
