Chapter 12 PROBABILITY REVIEW Counting, Combinations, Permutations, Probability, Binomial Theorem
Fundamental Counting Principle EXAMPLE: How many different 7 digit phone numbers are possible if the first digit cannot be 0 or 1? Two events: one occurs m ways and the other occurs n ways…They occur together mn ways
PERMUTATIONS • An ORDERING of n objects: n! • Permutations of n objects taken r at a time • Permutations with repetition
Example Questions • There are 8 movies you would like to see currently showing in theaters. In how many different ways can you see all 8 of the movies?
Example Questions • There are 8 movies you would like to see currently showing in theaters. In how many ways can you choose a movie to see this Saturday and one to see this Sunday?
Example Questions • Find the number of distinguishable permutations of the letters in POPPY
Example Questions • Find the number of distinguishable permutations of the letters in WATERFALL
COMBINATIONS • Selection of objects – NO ordering • EXAMPLE: How many 5-card hands are possible when using a standard deck?
BINOMIAL THEOREM • Pascal’s Triangle – coefficients of the binomial expansion • Sum of the exponents in each term must add to the original power EXAMPLE: Expand (x-5)4
Pascal’s Triangle Write Pascal’s Triangle to the ( )7 line:

PROBABILITY • Probability: • P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) – P(A and B)P(A and B) = P(A) • P(B)Complement: P(A’) = 1 – P(A)
