CombinationsCombinations

A selection of objects in which order is not important.

Example: Eight people pair up to do an assignment. How many different pairs are there?

there to select two class

representatives from a class of

20 students?

Example 5

• There are 28 students in your math

class. Your teacher chooses 5

students at random to complete a

group project. Find the probabilityprobability

that you and your best friend are

chosen to work in the group.

Page 10: Acc Math 1 EQ: What is the difference between a permutation and combination?

Solution • The number of possible outcomes

• The number of favorable outcomes with

both of you in it.

• Probability = 2,600/98,280 = 5/189

PermutationPermutationss

Simplify each expression.

a. 12P2

b. 10P4

c. At a school science fair, ribbons are given for first, second, third, and fourth place, There are 20 exhibits in the fair. How many different arrangements of four winning exhibits are possible?

12 • 11 = 132

10 • 9 • 8 • 7 = 5,040

= 20P4 = 20 • 19 • 18 • 17 = 116,280
