CHANCES AND OUTCOMES
Choose one snack and one drink; assess possible combinations.
Key questions:
Determine total possible outcomes.
Assess equality of outcomes.
Relate counting outcomes to probability.
FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLE OF COUNTING
If one event can happen in m ways and another in n ways, the total outcomes = .
OBJECTIVES
Apply the Fundamental Counting Principle (FCP) for outcomes.
Define and compute probability of simple events.
EXAMPLES USING FCP
Tossing coins and rolling dice: Calculate outcomes via FCP.
Competitions and orders:
Contest rankings (e.g., 8 contestants) using FCP.
Iced tea orders (3 flavors, 3 sizes).
PLATE NUMBER COMBINATIONS
3 letters + 3 digits.
Scenarios:
Repetition allowed vs. not allowed.
YOUR TURN!
Form 5-digit numbers.
With and without repetition.
Create odd numbers without repetition.
UNDERSTANDING ASSESSMENT
Self-rate comprehension and need for help.
SMART CHOICES AND DECISION MAKING
Break complex decisions into simpler parts for clarity.
WRITTEN MATH A
Apply FCP to problems involving:
Two-letter initials.
Meals combinations from various categories.
ADDITIONAL CHALLENGES
Solve problems with specified digits:
4-digit even numbers, 5-digit constraints, etc.
FINAL REMARK
Strive for glorification in all endeavors.
