Chapter Notes
 
Key Concepts
 
1. Fundamental principle of counting: These are two fundamental principles of counting as follows:
 
1) Multiplication Principle
 
2) Addition Principle
 
2.Multiplication Principle: If an event can occur in M different ways, following which another event can occur in N different ways, then the total number of occurrence of the events in the given order is M x N. This principle can be extended to any number of finite events. Keyword here is “And”
 
3. Addition Principle: If there are two jobs such that they can be performed independently in M and N ways respectively, then either of the two jobs can be performed in (M + N) ways. This principle can be extended to any number of finite events. Keyword here is “OR”
 
4. The notation n! represents the product of first n natural numbers. n!=1.2.3.4…….n
 
5. A permutation is an arrangement in a definite order of a number of objects taken some or all at a time. In permutations order is important.
 
6. The number of permutation of n different objects taken r at a time, where 0< r ≤ n and the objects do not repeat is n(n – 1)(n – 2). . . (n – r + 1) which is denoted by nPr
 
7. The number of permutation of n different objects taken r at a time, where repetition is allowed is nr.
 
8. The number of permutation of n objects, where p, objects are of one kind and rest are all different is given by n!/p!.
 
9.The number of permutation of n objects, where p1, objects are of one kind, p2, are of second kind, … pk, are of kth kind and the rest, if any are of different kind is n!/p1!p2!....pk!
 
10. Keyword of permutations is “arrangement”
 
11. The number of combinations or selection of r different objects out of n given different objects is nCr which is given by  ncr=n!/r!(n-r)!0
 
12 Number of combinations of n different things taken nothing at all is considered to be 1
 
13. Counting combinations is merely counting the number of ways in which some or all objects at a time are selected.
 
14. Keyword of combinations is “selection”.
 
15. Selecting r objects out of n objects is same as rejecting (n – r) objects so nCn-r= nCr
 
16.Order is not important in combinations.
