    Thank you for this video! I like the fact that you did not use any of the formulas; using only reasoning to set up the problems and get them solved. If I may ask, would it be out of bounds to ask for the PDF copy of the questions used? I think having those questions and following your presentation would be very helpful. Thank you once again for your effort; this is the best I have seen on this topic.

    Hi Jeremy, Could you please show a Tree Diagram of the Last question (0,2,3,4) Digits ? I'm trying to learn how it becomes 49 using the Tree Diagram. Thanks !

    Britley Unilongo asked about how I am addressing the vowels at 14:39. Hi Britley, actually where I teach, in a question like this, students are expected to treat letters as if they were on scrabbled tiles. So letters, once again in a question like this, cannot be repeated. This is part of the curriculum I teach. The expectation is the for questions of this sort the letters cannot be repeated, while at the same time if the question was asking students to build a number out o available digits, they must assume that the numbers CAN be repeated unless they are told otherwise. So this conversation happens at the beginning of the teaching of this chapter: Letters cannot be repeated unless told otherwise, and numbers can be repeated unless told otherwise. If that looks really weird to you please talk to your teacher and find out what specific assumptions you are expected to make when you address these types of problems to clarify your question here.

    Hello, I'm having a really difficult time understanding why there's 2 cases when solving for digits with even numbers.
    If you still place 5 at the end, and then 9 at the first digit, you would still be able to reduce the rest of the digits then multiply. I'm still confused on how it has to be 2 cases.

    • @JeremyKlassenThePiMan
      @JeremyKlassenThePiMan  2 года назад +1

      I'm not placing 5 at the end. When I put a 5 there I am saying there are 5 options for that digit which makes sense because there arw 5 even digits. The problem is that your choice of digit in the last position affects the number of choices you have for digit in the first position. If the digit you actually use at the end is a zero then you have all 9 other digits to choose from for the first digit. But if that last digit turns out to be anything but zero then you only have eight options for the first digit. This is because you can't repeat digits so you can't use the digit you already used and you can't use the zero. So because the choice of final digit affects the number of choices for another position we need to split this into two cases.

    From 5 Nepalese ,,4 Americans and 6 British ,a committee of 6 is to be formed .In how many ways this be formed when the committee contains exactly 2 Americans ???
    How can we solve this question ????plzz upload the video for this question

    • @JeremyKlassenThePiMan
      @JeremyKlassenThePiMan  6 лет назад

      Before I upload a video for it let me try this. First note that since there are no special positions on this committee that order is not important so we will be using combinations, not permutations. Since we need exactly 2 Americans there are 4C2 ways this can be done. Now we still need 4 more people but there is no other restriction indicated so we simply consider the entire group of Nepalese and Britains, a group of 11. We can choose 4 from this group in 11C4 different ways. We use the fundamental counting principle to determine the number of ways of choosing the whole group when we multiply these results together. The final answer will be (4C2)(11C4)=1980 different committees. I hope this helps. This may be a bit confusing if you are still working with just the fundamental counting principle and have not yet discussed permutations and combinations. Please let me know.

    I have a question that I am stuck on. My teacher had put down "(7!)-(6!2!)" for the answer and it just does not make sense to me on how he got that. Here's the question being answered: "7 different types of cars are being parked side-by-side. How many ways can they be parked so the convertible is not next to the subcompact?"

    • @JeremyKlassenThePiMan
      @JeremyKlassenThePiMan  2 года назад +1

      So 7! Is the total number of permutations of all the vehicles. Then what we do is find the number of permutations where those two vehicles are together. If we treat them as one unit then there are 6 objects to permute. Those six are the five other vehicles together with the two that we are keeping together as one unit. Then there are 2 factorial ways of permitting those two vehicles together. This gives is 6!2!. Now we subtract the ways they can be together from the total number of permutations and what we get is all the different ways they can be separate from each other. I hope that makes sense

    What if two digit odd numbers can be formed using the digits 12345678 and 9,without repetition?

    • @JeremyKlassenThePiMan
      @JeremyKlassenThePiMan  6 лет назад

      If you are asking how many ways this can be done we use the fundamental counting principle and we start with the final digit. There are 5 options for this second digit. For the first digit there is only one digit we cannot use from the list given and that is the digit going in the second position. This means we have 8 options for that digit. When we multiply we get (8)(5)=40 different two digit odd numbers. Does that help?

    What can be an answer guys?

    • @JeremyKlassenThePiMan
      @JeremyKlassenThePiMan  7 лет назад +1

      Well in that case you won't be able to put all the books on the shelf. You will only be able to put 5 of them. So the question then is, which 5 and in what order. This is a permutation in the form 9P5. This amounts to 9*8*7*6*5=15120.
