A water footprint is a measure of the appropriation of fresh water. The per capita water footprint (in mega gallons) in a certain country for a recent year can be approximated by a normal distribution, as shown in the figure. (a) What water footprint represents the 82nd percentile? (b) What water footprint represents the 32nd percentile? (c) What water footprint represents the third quartile?
Permutations and Combinations
If there are 5 dishes, they can be relished in any order at a time. In permutation, it should be in a particular order. In combination, the order does not matter. Take 3 letters a, b, and c. The possible ways of pairing any two letters are ab, bc, ac, ba, cb and ca. It is in a particular order. So, this can be called the permutation of a, b, and c. But if the order does not matter then ab is the same as ba. Similarly, bc is the same as cb and ac is the same as ca. Here the list has ab, bc, and ac alone. This can be called the combination of a, b, and c.
Counting Theory
The fundamental counting principle is a rule that is used to count the total number of possible outcomes in a given situation.
