Exercise 2

Four different math, six different physics and two different chemistry textbooks are placed on a shelf. What is the number of possible combinations of arranging the textbooks if:

  • The textbooks from each subject must be grouped together.
  • Only the math textbooks need to be grouped together.

Exercise 3

A boy has five coins, each of a different value. How many different sums of money can be totaled with these five coins?

Solution of exercise 5

With the dot and dash system of Morse code, how many different signals can be sent using four clicks or less?

The order of the elements does matter.

The elements can be repeated.

Solution of exercise 6

Eight people are seated at a dinner table at a political function. How many ways can they sit if the president and secretary always have to be seated next to one another?

There are two groups that the elements can be divided into for solving this problem. The first has two people (president and secretary) and the second has 7 people.

The order of the elements does matter.

The elements cannot be repeated.

Solution of exercise 7

How many diagonals does a pentagon have and how many triangles can be formed with its vertices?

First, the lines that can be drawn between 2 vertices need to be determined.

The order of the elements does not matter.

The elements cannot be repeated.

The sides that determine 5 straight lines that are not diagonal need to be subtracted.

What formula is to be used in dealing with problems that involve permutation?
diagonals

What formula is to be used in dealing with problems that involve permutation?
triangles

Solution of exercise 8

In this example, we are given the following information:

The total number of candies = 8

Number of candies we want to select = 4

Is repetition allowed = No

The formula for calculating the permutations when no repetition is allowed is given below:

What formula is to be used in dealing with problems that involve permutation?

Substitute the values in the above formula to get the number of ways the candies can be selected:

What formula is to be used in dealing with problems that involve permutation?

Hence, we can select 4 candies from a set of 8 candies in 1680 ways.

 

Solution of exercise 9

In this example, we are given the following information:

The total number of vegetables = 10

Number of vegetables we want to select = 6

Is repetition allowed = No

The formula for calculating the permutations when no repetition is allowed is given below:

Hence, we can select 6 vegetables from a set of 10 vegetables in 151200 ways.

 

Solution of exercise 10

We are given the following information in this problem:

The number of balls = 9

The odd positions for red balls will be 1, 3, 5, 7, 9

The red balls can occupy 5 odd positions:

What is the formula in solving permutation?

One could say that a permutation is an ordered combination. The number of permutations of n objects taken r at a time is determined by the following formula: P(n,r)=n! (n−r)!

What will be the formula to be use when we are dealing with permutation with repetition?

Formulas for Permutations.

What is the formula be used in solving problems involving permutations by applying the concept of fundamental counting principle?

n C k = ( n k ) = n ! k ! ( n − k ) ! A permutation is the number of ways of choosing and arranging objects from a total of objects (order does matter). n P k = k !

What is the formula be used in solving problems involving permutations by applying the concept of circular permutations?

The formula for calculating a circular permutation without repetition is: n! r(n−r)!
