Question

How many pairwise comparisons must you make for a case with 15 statistically independent scenarios?

Answer 1

There are 105 comparisons made with 15 statistically independent scenarios.

According to the statement

we have given value of n is 15.

Then r = 2. so,

we use the formula NcR then

Substitute the values in it then

15c2

we open it according to ncr formula

In this formula we arrange the terms according to the following

NcR formula = n! /r! * (n-r)!

then the terms will arrange in this way.

So,

ncr = 15! / 2! * 13!

After solving the statement some terms will be cancel with each other and remaining terms are

ncr = 15*14/2

ncr = 210/2

ncr = 105

here the value becomes 105.

So, There are 105 comparisons made with 15 statistically independent scenarios.
