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…

Counting Theory

The fundamental counting principle is a rule that is used to count the total number of possible outcomes in a given situation.

Question

Chapter 15.6, Problem 22WE

To determine

To find: The number of display signals that can be made by displaying five flags all at one time on flagpole.

Expert Solution & Answer

Answer to Problem 22WE

Thenumber of signals is 20 .

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The flagpole differ only in colour, three red, one white and one blue.

Calculation:

Consider the number of colour is 5, three red, one white and one blue.

Consider that for a set of n elements that has n1 element of one kind and n2 element of the other kind and so on then the number of permutation of n object taken n at a time is,

P=n!n1!n2!....

Then, the number of signals that can be made is,

P=5!3!1!1!=5×4×3×2×1(3×2×1)(1)(1)=20

Thus, the number of signals is 20 .
