You have a frame that holds three pictures. You pulled out your favorite five photos. How many sets of three are there? Make a list of all the possible combinations using the numbers 1 - 5 to represent the photos.
You have 5 photos, you need to find the no, of sets of 3 you can make from 5 pics. It's a problem of combination. Do you understand the problem? @girlpower12345678910
You have 5 photos, and 1 picture frame that holds 3. Now look at this. If you have 2 picture frames it would be 6, right? All I know. xp
Thanks guys! Ya'll were a HUGE help!
I'm sure you figured it out by now, but there are 5 C 3 = (5!)/(3!(5-3)!) = 10 different ways to do this and the 10 ways are listed below 123 124 125 134 135 145 234 235 245 345 Keep in mind that order does NOT matter (so something like 135 is the same as 315)
Thank you so much jim! Such a huge help
you're welcome
I added you as a fan
Add me
thanks, and random side note: you sent me a message but it says "user doesn't accept messages" lol
so just letting you know
Ok i cant or you cant
i tried sending you a message back and it told me that
OH!
so i think you're not allowed to receive messages? lol
its ok, just an odd glitch i guess
It's because I havent looked at the verification link yet
i gotcha
what did you say
in the text you tried sending me
oh i didn't say anything since it told me right away
GTG BYE
but i was just gonna say back "sure thing"
OK BYE
alright cya later
bye
does anyone know
agmac???
yaaaaaaa
Jim helped me alot
Wish he was online
sorry i lost connection, but what is your question?
OMG! hi
lol hi, hopefully it's all fixed
had to reset everything, but it's working (for now...)
it is you helped SO MUCH
lol
here is a question
glad I did, did you have another question?
ok
yes
You roll a number cube. Event A: roll a number less than 3 Event B: roll an odd number Are the events disjointed or overlapping? I think its overlapping because 1 is an odd number. Just clarifying
Well think of it in terms of venn diagrams (that's how I do it)
Oh thx i was just making sure ONE MORE BTW
|dw:1363730840743:dw|
notice how the number 1 is in BOTH sets
So there is overlap
so yeah you got it correct, nice work
oh my thanks
can I ask you one more
MATH WIZARD
sure
kk thanks
hold on it will take a moment
ok
You randomly draw a marble from a bag. You then put it back before drawing a second marble. These events are --------- events. independent or dependent
???? I know I'm dumb just need help though
you're not dumb, so cut that out
k k
thx???
I guess but answer plz
they are independent because neither event affects the other
the first draw doesn't affect the probability of the second draw (or vice versa)
RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT! Just forgot the definition of independent
that's ok
How long are you going to be on
not sure, how much more do you have?
all day hon I mean really nice person that cares about other people including me ha lmbo
There are eight sprinters competing for first, second, and third place ribbons. How many different ways can the ribbons be awarded? 1,680 336 24 8
Hello? Jim?
you have 8 choices for the first slot (first place), 7 choices for the second, and 6 choices for the third so you multiply that out to get your answer
what do you get when you do
ok thx you get 336?
yep
ty so much jim
Twenty-four girls are trying out for 12 spots on the cheerleading team. If you wanted to determine how many different groups of 12 girls can be created, would you use a permutation or a combination?
Since you said you don't know how long you would be on.... thought you could help me with a few more?
The key word is "group", which implies that order does NOT matter
So you would use a _____
combination
This is fun!
Match the word with its definition. 1. theoretical probability 2. independent events 3. permutation 4. overlapping events 5. dependent events 6. disjointed events 7. combination 8. experimental probability the ratio of favorable outcomes to total possible outcomes events with at least one outcome in common an arrangement of objects where order is not important compound events that are affected by prior events outcomes events with no outcomes in common an arrangement of objects where order is important compound events that are not affected by other's outcomes the ratio of the number of successes to the number of trials
lol glad you're having fun
haha

what did you get for this one?
this crazy huh
you put the numbers beside the one it matches
