Fundamental Counting Principles

1. Which counting method calculates the total number of possible outcomes in an experiment without listing them individually?

• Tabular

• Tree Diagram

• Systematic Listing

• Fundamental Counting Principle

2. Which refers to an arrangement of objects or elements in a specific order?

• Factorial

• Combination

• Permutation

• Product Rule

3. What is the number of distinct permutations of n objects, where p objects are identical, q objects are identical, r objects are identical, and so on?

• 𝑃 =𝑛!/(𝑝! 𝑞! 𝑟! …)

• 𝑃 =𝑝!/(𝑛! 𝑞! 𝑟! …)

• 𝑃 =𝑞!/(𝑝! 𝑛! 𝑟! …)

• 𝑃 =𝑟!/(𝑝! 𝑞! 𝑛! …)

4. Which is an ordered arrangement of objects in a circular manner?

• "permutation"

• "linear permutation"

• circular permutation

• distinguishable permutation

5. What notation denotes the number of combinations of n objects taken r at a time?

• 𝑛!/𝑟!

• 𝑛!/𝑟!(𝑛−𝑟)!

• 𝑛!/𝑛!(𝑛−𝑟)!

• 𝑛!/𝑛!(𝑟−𝑛)!
