A combination is an unordered arrangement of r distinct objects in a set of n objects. To find the number of permutations, we use the following equation:
n!/((n-r)!r!)
In this case, there could be 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, or all 5 cards discarded. There is only one possible combination each for 0 or 5 cards being discarded (either none of them or all of them). We will be the above equation to find the number of combination s for 1, 2, 3, and 4 discarded cards.
5!/((5-1)!1!) = 5!/(4!*1!) = (5*4*3*2*1)/(4*3*2*1*1) = 5
5!/((5-2)!2!) = 5!/(3!2!) = (5*4*3*2*1)/(3*2*1*2*1) = 10
5!/((5-3)!3!) = 5!/(2!3!) = (5*4*3*2*1)/(2*1*3*2*1) = 10
5!/((5-4)!4!) = 5!/(1!4!) = (5*4*3*2*1)/(1*4*3*2*1) = 5
Notice that discarding 1 or discarding 4 have the same number of combinations, as do discarding 2 or 3. This is being they are inverses of each other. That is, if we discard 2 cards there will be 3 left, or if we discard 3 there will be 2 left.
Now we add together the combinations
1 + 5 + 10 + 10 + 5 + 1 = 32 choices combinations to discard.
The answer is 32.
-------------------------------
Note: There is also an equation for permutations which is:
n!/(n-r)!
Notice it is very similar to combinations. The only difference is that a permutation is an ORDERED arrangement while a combination is UNORDERED.
We used combinations rather than permutations because the order of the cards does not matter in this case. For example, we could discard the ace of spades followed by the jack of diamonds, or we could discard the jack or diamonds followed by the ace of spades. These two instances are the same combination of cards but a different permutation. We do not care about the order.
I hope this helps! If you have any questions, let me know :)
Hello,
The correct answer is D) 2
Median: To find the Median, place the numbers you are given in value order and find the middle number. Example: find the Median of {13, 23, 11, 16, 15, 10, 26}. Put them in order: {10, 11, 13, 15, 16, 23, 26} The middle number is 15, so the median is 15. (If there are two middle numbers, you average them.)
The median number of trips taken to the food store in 1 week is 2.
4 - 2 = 2
Hope this helps!!!! :)
Answer: Add, subtract, multiply, divide
Step-by-step explanation:
Terms must be like terms in order to add or subtract. Terms do not have to be like if we are multiplying or dividing.
You cant add unlike terms when adding or subtracting, but you can use the exponent rules when multiply or dividing.
Answer:
1. Either none (if you have to buy a whole pound), or 1/4 of a pound
2. 3 whole pounds or 3 and 1/4 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
If $4 = 1 pound, then we know that $1 (which is 1/4 of $4), will let you by 1/4 pound of blueberries. Knowing this, we can simply:
Add up the one fourths
do 1/4 times $$
See how many times 4 goes into the number of dollars you have
Please correct me if I'm wrong :)
