Permutations and Combinations
Section 9.5
| Activity Name | Activity Description |
|---|---|
| Marbles | Students input conditions representing a sequence of trials whereby colored marbles are randomly drawn from a bag. The applet uses a table of possibile permutations to accumulate data on the outcomes of each trial simulation, providing theoretical and experimental probabilities for direct comparison. |
| Dice Table | Students input a set of 'winning' conditions for multiple players in a dice rolling game. The applet charts the possible outcomes on a two dimensional chart. Students then determine the probability of winning for a given player as a ratio, reduced fraction, converted decimal and percent chance. |
