Count outcomes using a tree diagram.
Count outcomes using the Fundamental Counting Principle.
Counting OutcomesCounting Outcomes
One method used for counting the number of possible outcomes is to draw atree diagram.
The last column of a tree diagram shows all of the possible outcomes.
The list of all possible outcomes is called the sample space, while any collection of one or more outcomes in the sample space is called an event.

A football team uses red jerseys for road games, white jerseys for home games,and gray jerseys for practice games. The team uses gray or black pants, and black and white shoes. Use a tree diagram to determine the number of possible uniforms.

The tree diagram shows that there are 12 possible outcomes.

In the previous example, the number of possible outcomes could also be found bymultiplying the number of choices for each item.

If an event M can occur in m ways, and is followed by an event N that can occurin n ways, then the event M followed by event N can occur m X n ways.

A deli offers a lunch special in which you can choose a sandwich, a side dish, an abeverage.
If there are 10 different sandwiches, 12 different side dishes, and 7 different beverages,from which to choose, how many different lunch specials can be ordered?

The expression n = 10 * 9 * 8 * 7 * 6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 used in the previous examplecan be written as 10! using a factorial.
The expression n!, read n factorial, where n is greater than zero, is the
product of all positive integers beginning with n and counting backward to 1.
n! = n(n – 1)* (n – 2) * . . . 3 * 2 * 1
Example: 5! = 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 or 120

0! is defined as being equal to 1. Let’s see why.
