130 1001 Solved Problems in Engineering Mathematics by Tiong & Rojas Venn diagram isa rectangle (the universal set) that includes circles depicting the subsets. This diagram is named after the English logician John Venn (1834 — 1923) in 1880. Below is a typical problem that is given in the engineering licensure examinations. A survey was conducted in a graduating ECE students in a certain university on which board subject they like best. The result is tabulated as follows: Mathematics 55 Math & Electronics 32 Electronics 50 Math & Communications 28 Communications 51 Electronics & Comm 25 All three subjects 10 How many were there in tHe graduating class? # Solution: Use Venn diagram: “(-) N=5+22+10+18 4341548 (oN N= 81 students Electronics PERMUTATION / COMBINATION / PROBABILITY Fundamental principle of counting: * if a thing can be done in m different ways and another thing can be done inn different ways, then the two things can be done in m times n different ways.” Nein ‘Communications Venn Diagram, Permutation, Combination and Probability 131 PERMUTATION: (Arrangement with specific order) “The numer of parmutatons of eon tings taken rat a time is If taken alll, ea COMBINATION: (Arrangement regardless of the order) “The number of combinations of n different things taken r at a time is —a Relation between permutation and combination: # PROBABILITY: ‘The probability (chance) of occurrence of a certain event in the following topics are based on the idea that all possible outcomes are equally likely to occur. This means that if a die is thrown once, the probability of getting a six is 1/6. The same probability with all the other numbers, i.e for 1 is 1/6, for 2 is 1/6 and so on. |. Probability that an event E will happen: % where: S = number of successful outcomes ‘T= number of outcomes. ll. Probability that it is not E: Ill, Mutually exclusive event: 132. 1001 Solved Problems in Engineering Mathematics by Tiong & Rojas IV. Conditional and Independent probability: V. Binomial or repeated trial probability: esa where: p = probability of success q= probability of failure = 1—p n= number of trials, = number of successful trials . CARDS. When dealing with playing cards, pack of cards or deck of cards is understood to be 52 cards. The playing cards were used to describe a calendar year. ‘The 52 cards represent the 52 weeks in a year. The 4 figures (Heart, Spade, Club and Diamond) represent the 4 seasons of the year and the 12 persons (kings, Queens, Jacks) are the 12 months of the year. . DICES. Dices were first used by the Chinese. The sum of the opposite faces of a die is always equal to 7. And the ‘sum of all the vertical faces of a die, no matter how it rolls is always equal to 14. Bid you Know that...the number 4 followed by 100 zeros is called “google” and the term “google” was coined in the 1930s by the nine- year old nephew of the American mathematician Edward Kasner when he was asked to come up with a name for a very large number.
