Advocard [28]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

5! (5 factorial) or 120 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

You can arrange P different ways. R can be arranged only 4 different ways because Pwill be in one of the spots. Next, you can arrange "I" 3 different ways because P and R are already arranged in 2 spots, meaning you cant put "I" there. Next, S can be arranged in 2 different ways for the same reason. And lastly, M can only be arranged in 1 different way because the other spots are taken.

You can put it in any order. For example, M could be arranged 5 ways and P could be arranged in 1 way. You will still get 120 ways

Hopefully this helped. The explanation might be a bit confusing but I tried my best. I'm not good with explaining my solutions but I always try

A bowl of buttons contains 10 MAGA [MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN] buttons, 5 GND [GREEN NEW DEAL] buttons and 10 NAW [NEVER A WALL]
kondaur [170]

Answer:

a) Probability of picking Two MAGA buttons without replacement = 0.15

b) Probability of picking a MAGA and GND button in that order = 0.0833

Probability of picking a MAGA and GND button in with the order unimportant = 0.167

Step-by-step explanation:

10 MAGA [MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN] buttons, 5 GND [GREEN NEW DEAL] buttons and 10 NAW [NEVER A WALL] buttons.

Total number of buttons = 10 + 5 + 10 = 25

Let probability of picking a MAGA button be P(M) = 10/25 = 0.4

Probability of picking a GND button be P(G) = 5/25 = 0.2

Probability of picking a NAW button be P(N) = 10/25 = 0.4

a) Probability of picking Two MAGA buttons without replacement = (10/25) × (9/24) = 3/20 = 0.15

b) Probability of picking a MAGA and GND button in that order = (10/25) × (5/24) = 1/12 = 0.0833

Probability of picking a MAGA and GND button in with the order unimportant = [(10/25) × (5/24)] + [(5/25) × (10/24)] = 1/6 = 0.167
