4 Undoing Order In the last section we found the number of ways to arrange the letters in the word ninny as follows. Find the number of was to arrange the letters in the word ninny.

5 Undoing Order In the last section we found the number of ways to arrange the letters in the word ninny as follows. Find the number of was to arrange the letters in the word ninny. P(5, 5) P(3, 3)

6 Undoing Order In the last section we found the number of ways to arrange the letters in the word ninny as follows. Find the number of was to arrange the letters in the word ninny. P(5, 5) P(3, 3) arrange all 5 letters

7 Undoing Order In the last section we found the number of ways to arrange the letters in the word ninny as follows. Find the number of was to arrange the letters in the word ninny. P(5, 5) P(3, 3) arrange all 5 letters divide out arrangement of 3 n s

8 Undoing Order In the last section we found the number of ways to arrange the letters in the word ninny as follows. Find the number of was to arrange the letters in the word ninny. P(5, 5) P(3, 3) arrange all 5 letters divide out arrangement of 3 n s Dividing out the order of the n s is something we can generalize to undoing the order of selection all together.

9 Generalizing the Concept Suppose that you want to give two movie tickets to your two closest friends. How many ways can you do this? Combinations A combination of n things taken r at a time is the number of ways to select r things from n distinct things without replacement when the order of selection does not matter.
