8.2 Probability Rules Name: ________________________ Lesson 5βCounting & Permutations Fundamental Counting Principle How probable is it that two separate events occur? If event π΄ can occur ___________ times and event π΅ can occur _________ times, then there are ____________ different ways both events can occur. Examples 1. If an ice cream store offers nine different flavors and three different sizes, then how many possible combinations of flavors and sizes are there? 2. The menu of a particular restaurant lists three appetizers, eight entrées, four desserts, and three drinks. Assuming a meal consists of one appetizer, one entrée, one dessert, and one drink, how many different meals can be ordered? 3. A particular state license plate contains three letters (A-Z) followed by four digits (0-9). How many unique license plates can be created? According to the Fundamental Counting Principle, the number of possible license plates is equal to the product of the possible ways each character can be chosen. 1 Factorials In general, π! ("_______________________") means the product of all the natural numbers from 1 to π; that is, π! = _______________________ For instance, "πππ’π ππππ‘πππππ" is written as "4!" and means 1 × 2 × 3 × 4 = 24 Calculator: ππ΄ππ» β β β 4: ! Examples 1. The starting five players of a basketball team are announced one by one at the beginning of a game. Calculate the total number of different ways the order of players can be announced. 2. Calculate the total number of ways eight people can be seated at a table that has eight seats. 3. There are fourteen juniors and twenty-three seniors in the Service Club.

A permutation is a sequence of object in which the __________________ is a defining factor. Example: For instance if you are given {π΄, π΅, πΆ} and asked to identify unique permutations, choosing two elements at a time, π΄π΅ and π΅π΄ are considered unique permutations. Although both contain the same two elements, the order in which the elements appear distinguishes them. No elements are repeated in a unique permutation. You are commonly asked to calculate the number of permutations that exist for a set containing _______________ elements if you choose _____________of them at a time. In the previous example you choose π = _________ of the π = _________ letters. The number of possible permutations is defined as ___________________ The equation for finding a permutation is _____________________________ β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦ Calculator: Turn to page 397 in your textbooks.
