Unitary Method
The word “unitary” comes from the word “unit”, which means a single and complete entity. In this method, we find the value of a unit product from the given number of products, and then we solve for the other number of products.

To determine

To explain: Example of a situation in which one would use a combination. Then change the situation so that one required to use a permutation.

Expert Solution & Answer

Answer to Problem 37HP

The main difference between the permutation and combination is that permutation involves arrangement and combination does not includes arrangement.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

For using permutation, you need to change the situation.

Consider a class of 20 students. Suppose that 5 students participated in a quizcmpetition. If a total number of ways are asked in which the 5 students can be selected from the class of 20 students, so arrangement is not that important.

In case 5 students are selected from a class of 20 , it will be example of combination.

In case principle asks to select 3 students such that they occupy first, second and third position in the quiz, arrangement will be prioritized

So it will be example of permutations.

The main difference between the permutation and combination is that permutation involves arrangement and combination does not includes arrangement.
