Permutations Objectives: (1) Students will be able to use permutations to find all possible arrangements involving a limited number of choices. Essential Questions: (1) What are permutations and how can we find them?
Permutations What is a Permutation? - Have you ever been in an ice cream shop and wondered about all the different ways you could order three different scoops of ice cream? - A PERMUTATION is an arrangement or listing in which order IS important.
Permutations Real World Example: Five students are finalists in the school spelling bee. How many ways can they finish first, second, and third?
Permutations Real World Example: Five students are finalists in the school spelling bee. How many ways can they finish first, second, and third? P(5,3) = 5 x 4 x 3 = 60 different ways
Permutations How Do I Find The Value of A Permutation? - We calculate the value of a permutation in the following way: P(5,3) = 5 x 4 x 3 = 60 different ways Start with this number (1) (2) (3) Count down this many numbers
Permutations Example 1:Permutations. Find the value for P(5,2).
Permutations Example 1:Permutations. Find the value for P(5,2). P(5,2) = 5 x 4 = 20 Start with this number (1) (2) We are using this many numbers so we count down this many numbers
Permutations Example 2:Standing in Line. In how many different ways can Carlos, Sergio, Caleb, DeMoris, Eric, and Brayton stand in line?
Permutations Example 2:Standing in Line. In how many different ways can Carlos, Sergio, Caleb, DeMoris, Eric, and Brayton stand in line? P(6,6) = 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 720 different ways There are 6 people to choose from (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) We are selecting this many people
Permutations Example 3:Video Games. If I choose three video games to play at Celebration Station out of ten, in how many different orders can I play those three games?
Permutations Example 3:Video Games. If I choose three video games to play at Celebration Station out of ten, in how many different orders can I play those three games? P(10,3) = 10 x 9 x 8= 720different orders There are 10 games to choose from (1) (2) (3) We are selecting 3 games to play
Permutations Example 4:Arrange letters in a word. In how many different ways can you arrange the letters in the word rainbow?
Permutations Example 4:Arrange letters in a word. In how many different ways can you arrange the letters in the word rainbow? P(7,7) = 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 5040ways There are 7 different letters to arrange (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) (7) We are selecting all 7 letters
Permutations Guided Practice:Find the value. (1) P(8,3) = ? (2) How many ways can the three members of the debating team be arranged on the stage?
Permutations Guided Practice:Find the value. (1) P(8,3) = 8 x 7 x 6 = 336 (2) How many ways can the three members of the debating team be arranged on the stage? P(3,3) = 3 x 2 x 1 = 6 ways
Permutations Independent Practice:Find the value. (1) P(6,4) = ? (2) How many ways can 4 books be arranged on a bookshelf?
Permutations Independent Practice:Find the value. (1) P(6,4) = 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 = 360 (2) How many ways can 4 books be arranged on a bookshelf? P(4,4) = 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 24 ways
Permutations Real World Example:Ice Cream. Coldstone Creamery has a total of 31 different flavors. They are running a special where you can get three scoops for the price of one. How many ways can you order three different flavored scoops.
Permutations Real World Example:Ice Cream. Coldstone Creamery has a total of 31 different flavors. They are running a special where you can get three scoops for the price of one. How many ways can you order three different flavored scoops. P(31,3) = 31 x 30 x 29 = 26,970 different ways Start with this number (1) (2) (3) Count down this many numbers
Permutations Summary: - Permutations involve arrangements or listings where order is important. - We use the following notation: P(9,4) = * The symbol P(9,4) represents the number of permutations of 9 possible things to take, and we are taking 4 of them
Permutations Summary: - Permutations involve arrangements or listings where order is important. - We use the following notation: P(9,4) = 9 x 8 x 7 x 6 = Start with this number Permutation Count down this many numbers
