Permutation And Combinations

Gbogbo ọrọ náà

In Further Mathematics, specifically in the topic of Permutations and Combinations, students delve into a fascinating branch of mathematics that deals with the arrangement and selection of objects. This topic offers a systematic way to calculate the number of ways in which objects can be arranged or selected, thus enabling a deeper understanding of various mathematical concepts and real-life applications.

One of the primary objectives of studying permutations and combinations is to comprehend the fundamental differences between these two concepts. Permutations focus on the arrangement of objects in a particular order, whereas combinations concern the selection of objects without considering the order. This distinction plays a crucial role in various problem-solving scenarios, making it essential for students to grasp the nuances of each concept.

As students progress through the topic, they will learn how to calculate the number of permutations and combinations of objects taken some at a time. This involves applying formulas and strategies to determine the possible arrangements and selections based on the given constraints. By mastering these calculations, students develop a robust foundation in combinatorial mathematics, which is vital for tackling more complex problems in the field.

Moreover, the application of permutations and combinations extends beyond theoretical calculations; it finds practical relevance in solving real-life problems. From determining the number of possible outcomes in games of chance to optimizing resources in various scenarios, the knowledge of permutations and combinations equips students with valuable problem-solving skills that can be applied across diverse disciplines.

To aid in visualizing and understanding the concepts of permutations and combinations, students often use diagrams such as factorial diagrams and tree diagrams. These visual representations help illustrate the different possible arrangements and selections, enhancing comprehension and facilitating the problem-solving process.

In conclusion, the study of permutations and combinations in Further Mathematics opens up a world of possibilities for students to explore the intricacies of arrangement and selection. By mastering the calculations, understanding the underlying principles, and applying the concepts to practical scenarios, students develop a versatile skill set that can be utilized in various academic and real-world contexts.

Given that nC $_{4}$ , nC $_{5}$ and nC $_{6}$ are the terms of a linear sequence (A.P), find the :

i. value of n

ii. common differences of the sequence.

Azịza

nC $_{4}$ = $\frac{n!}{[n - 4]! 4!}$ $\frac{n [n - 1] [n - 2] [n - 3] [n - 4]!}{[n - 4]! 4!}$

nC $_{5}$ = $\frac{n!}{[n - 5]! 5!}$ $\frac{n [n - 1] [n - 2] [n - 3] [n - 4] [n - 5]!}{[n - 5]! 5!}$

and nC $_{6}$ = $\frac{n!}{[n - 6]! 6!}$ → $\frac{n [n - 1] [n - 2] [n - 3] [n - 4] [n - 5] [n - 6]!}{[n - 6]! 6!]}$

d = U2 - U1 = U3 - U2

nC $_{5}$ - nC $_{4}$ = $\frac{n (n - 1) (n - 2) (n - 3) (n - 9)}{5!}$

nC $_{6}$ - nC $_{5}$ = $\frac{n (n - 1) (n - 2) (n - 3) (n - 4) (n - 11)}{5! 6}$

nC $_{5}$ - nC $_{4}$ = nC $_{6}$ - nC $_{5}$

$\frac{n (n - 1) (n - 2) (n - 3) (n - 9)}{5!}$ = $\frac{n (n - 1) (n - 2) (n - 3) (n - 4) (n - 11)}{5! 6}$

divide both sides by n(n-1)(n-2)(n-3)

$\frac{n - 9}{5!}$ = $\frac{[n - 4] [n - 11]}{5! 6}$

multiply both sides by 5! * 6

6(n-9) = (n-4)(n-11)
6n - 54 = n $^{2}$ -11n - 4n + 44
6n - 54 = n $^{2}$ - 15n + 44
n $^{2}$ - 21n + 98 = 0
n $^{2}$ - 7n - 14n + 98 = 0
n(n - 7) -14(n - 7) = 0
(n-7)(n-14) = 0
n = 7 or 14

ii.

d = U2 - U1
when n = 7
d = 7C $_{5}$ - 7C $_{4}$

d = $\frac{7 * 6 * 5!}{2! * 5!}$ - $\frac{7 * 6 * 5 * 4!}{3! * 4!}$

d = 21 - 35
d = -14

when n = 14

d = 14C $_{5}$ - 14C $_{4}$

d = $\frac{14 * 13 * 12 * 11 * 10 * 9!}{9! * 5!}$ - $\frac{14 * 13 * 12 * 11 * 10!}{10! * 4!}$

d = 2002 - 1001
d = 1001

Akọwa Nkọwa

nC $_{4}$ = $\frac{n!}{[n - 4]! 4!}$ $\frac{n [n - 1] [n - 2] [n - 3] [n - 4]!}{[n - 4]! 4!}$

nC $_{5}$ = $\frac{n!}{[n - 5]! 5!}$ $\frac{n [n - 1] [n - 2] [n - 3] [n - 4] [n - 5]!}{[n - 5]! 5!}$

and nC $_{6}$ = $\frac{n!}{[n - 6]! 6!}$ → $\frac{n [n - 1] [n - 2] [n - 3] [n - 4] [n - 5] [n - 6]!}{[n - 6]! 6!]}$

d = U2 - U1 = U3 - U2

nC $_{5}$ - nC $_{4}$ = $\frac{n (n - 1) (n - 2) (n - 3) (n - 9)}{5!}$

nC $_{6}$ - nC $_{5}$ = $\frac{n (n - 1) (n - 2) (n - 3) (n - 4) (n - 11)}{5! 6}$

nC $_{5}$ - nC $_{4}$ = nC $_{6}$ - nC $_{5}$

$\frac{n (n - 1) (n - 2) (n - 3) (n - 9)}{5!}$ = $\frac{n (n - 1) (n - 2) (n - 3) (n - 4) (n - 11)}{5! 6}$

divide both sides by n(n-1)(n-2)(n-3)

$\frac{n - 9}{5!}$ = $\frac{[n - 4] [n - 11]}{5! 6}$

multiply both sides by 5! * 6

6(n-9) = (n-4)(n-11)
6n - 54 = n $^{2}$ -11n - 4n + 44
6n - 54 = n $^{2}$ - 15n + 44
n $^{2}$ - 21n + 98 = 0
n $^{2}$ - 7n - 14n + 98 = 0
n(n - 7) -14(n - 7) = 0
(n-7)(n-14) = 0
n = 7 or 14

ii.

d = U2 - U1
when n = 7
d = 7C $_{5}$ - 7C $_{4}$

d = $\frac{7 * 6 * 5!}{2! * 5!}$ - $\frac{7 * 6 * 5 * 4!}{3! * 4!}$

d = 21 - 35
d = -14

when n = 14

d = 14C $_{5}$ - 14C $_{4}$

d = $\frac{14 * 13 * 12 * 11 * 10 * 9!}{9! * 5!}$ - $\frac{14 * 13 * 12 * 11 * 10!}{10! * 4!}$

d = 2002 - 1001
d = 1001
