  • should had had blue balls lol. lol sorry just couldn't help it

  • Thanks A Lot

  • i'm a little confused. Let's say there are like...9 sweets in the box and out of 9 you pick 4 of those sweets. so how many ways exist to pick those 4 if the order doesn't matter?

    i have 3,024 ways... and my brain disagrees.. i mean its 9!/5! = 6*7*8*9 .... i think i made a mistake here, help pls.

  • why in the world is this on the SAT :(

  • what in the world is a factorial :(

  • @moka22051 A factorial is when you multiply that number by all the positive integers below it. For example, 7! is 7*6*5*4*3*2*1.

  • It's a miracle the stutter at 01:12 didn't have a "shit" in it. Sit and chair are perfect ingredients for this to happen.

  • Well i was getting slightly confused near the end. 

  • Can you please explain the why do we multiply these 7x6x5 or 3x2, whats the logic.

  • i hv a magenta ball

  • @ninjaturtle205 lol a brown ball n yello ball too and he puts them on the cups!

  • ball in a cup!!!

  • I love the mathematics and how you teach but I must say I lost it at "I have three balls" XD lmfao

  • i see you were hesitant to select cups...

  • I really thank you for this video... it's very comprehensive... thank you so much... :-)

  • Good explanation. I've always found this sort of thing confusing but this video was very clear. Great intuition gained.

  • please do combinations with repetition! it would be greatly appreciated! :D

  • wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow THANK YOU!

  • idk how you know so much...thanks alot man!! :) really helped

  • Thanks, your videos are always great!

  • You sound like Sean Blumberg on Felicity the series...lol...I've been watching reruns of Felicity all day today while I do my homework.

  • This was a great review. :)

  • What if one expanded the situation to be able to have all seven people on one chair and none on the others?

  • how many permutations would they be on 2 girls and a 1 cup?...

  • @phiphers hahaha excellent

  • @phiphers looooooooooooooooooooooool!

  • @phiphers 2

  • @phiphers 2!/(2-1)!=2

  • u know what .... i just like it, all i say is that u r awesome in all ur videos ...i wonder if u have a dvd set for all the advanced math...cheers ...

  • I love when math is demistified

  • I really appreciate this combinations are easy as pie but this is another story

  • Comment removed

  • What if there are less things than spots?

  • @jarrasoma

    Well, given i.e. 5 cups and 3 balls - and you put one ball in one cup - you'd have this;

    Cup 1: Ball A

    Cup 2: Ball B

    Cup 3: Ball C

    Cup 4: No ball

    Cup 5: No ball

    Now, there's a problem with our ascertion. Can you see it? The question now is better answered as a relation; In how many ways can you place a cup and a ball together? That way, the places would be the "k", and the other relation would represent the "n".

  • Ah... I see, its just a reverse :P

    Thanks

  • you are awesome man!!!

  • Thanks to this video I passed my permutation chair & ball test!

  • I have never understood how to actually add up a number of people sitting in chairs or holding balls into a finite number; I always end up with infinite! But I now understand that people who sit in chairs sit in the balls and therefore N x N x N = N^3

  • Math ughh but Thanks

  • wow, what are you 5?

  • thanks man you vids are great

  • isnt ermutation$ its variation

  • Very well explained!

  • THANK YOU REALLY MUCH, I have tomorow big math exam, it helped me a lot

  • Thanks a lot.

  • shit!

  • tats wat u r

  • LMFAO

  • thx! it helped me very much!

  • Chair tree? LOL Nice stuff.

  • What does this mean? You said:

    "If we just cared which of the balls were picked but we didn't care whether they were in cup 1 or cup 2..."

    What's the opposite of that?

    Thank you.

  • combinations

  • probability is everywhere . even in precalc.

  • its ( n - k ) !

    not ( n - k ! )

  • keep it up! please continue with stat and prob videos

  • For some reason this has always rattled my brain. This really helps. Thanks!

  • Thank you so much.

  • thank you!

  • it's (n-k)! not (n-k!), just a little remark.

  • @Harry0Ron0Hermione I'm not on to anything or that... But why do you watch stuff you already know?

  • @danielkirk1 Lol I think that I forgot before...

  • @danielkirk1 it's kinda common sense.

  • @yumeybaconcutout Interesting, please continue.

  • nice

  • sweet, thanks
