What is the quadratic formula and how is it used?

• The quadratic formula is x = (-b ± √(b^2 + 4ac)) / 2a

• The quadratic formula is x = (b ± √(b^2 - 4ac)) / 2a

• The quadratic formula is x = (-b ± √(b^2 - 4ac)) / a

Differentiate between permutations and combinations in probability theory

• Permutations and combinations are the same concept in probability theory.

• Permutations involve factorial calculations and are denoted by nPr, while combinations involve binomial coefficients and are denoted by nCr.

• Permutations are used for independent events, while combinations are used for dependent events.

• Permutations involve adding numbers, while combinations involve subtracting numbers.
