‘How are you feeling today?’
How are you feeling today? Do you have mixed emotions/feelings today? Let us get
started by taking one from the emoticons to acknowledge our feelings. To describe
your feelings put your emoji in the emoji box.

(EXCITED) (SAD) (GOOD) (TIRED)
Feelings also help us to connect, understand and relate to others.
GROUP RACE LEADERBOARD!
▪ The students are divided into 4 groups.
▪ For every correct answer of their members there’s a corresponding point for
each group.
▪ The group with the most points wins.
▪ Students will receive a chocolate trophy as a reward at the end of the day.

REVIEW ACTIVITY – 2 points


MOTIVATIONAL ACTIVITY – 3 points
APPLICATION (Group work) – 5 points plus additional points
EVALUATION (Individual) – 5 points
a. Review The teacher will ask students about the previous topic.
- Last meeting, we discussed about Permutations.
- Let us practice what you have learned about it.

Review Activity: ‘’GUESS ME’’

D. (Motivation) Directions: A close friend invited Tina to her ice cream party. Tina has 3 new
blouses and 2 skirts in her closet reserved for such occasions. In how many ways can
Tina select her outfit? List down all the possible outfits.

Analysis The teacher will ask the students the following questions about the activity.
• What have you noticed on your answers in your activity?
• What are these combinations?
• How many possible outfits can Tina make?
• How about if Tina has plenty of blouses and skirts? Can we count the
combinations easily?
• So, from the activity we had, who can guess the lesson for today?
Abstraction Combinations is a mathematical technique that determines a selection of objects
where ORDER DOES NOT MATTER.

where:
✓ C is the number of combinations
✓ n is the number of elements in a set
✓ r is the number of choosing objects from the set

Example #1:
Pizza is a dish of Italian origin consisting of a usually round, flat base of leavened
wheat-based dough topped with tomatoes, cheese, and often various other
ingredients, which is then baked at a high temperature, traditionally in a wood-fired
oven. In supporting your friend, you want to help promote their home-made pizza by
picking 3 different toppings and give these to your family.
In how many ways can you do it if there are 12 flavors available?

Solution: arrangement is NOT IMPORTANT.


Find the keyword: picking
Use the Formula: (Combination)

Substitute the given values:


n = 12
r=3
Expand and simplify.
12!
12C3 = 3!(12−3)!
12C3 = 12𝑥11𝑥10
3! 9!
12C3 = 12𝑥11𝑥10𝑥9
3𝑥2𝑥1𝑥9!
12C3 = 12𝑥11𝑥10
3𝑥2𝑥1
12C3 = 1320
6
12C3= 220 ways

Application Group Activity: “COUNT ON ME “


Mechanics:
• The group is divided into four groups.
• Each group will receive a different problem about combinations.
• Points will be given based on Mind Map Rubric.
• Additional points for each group who will present their work first.
1st Group Presented – 5 points.
2nd Group Presented – 4 points.
3rd Group Presented – 3 points.
4th Group Presented – 2 points.

Mind Map Rubric:

NEATNESS
COOPERATION
AND
TEAMWORK
TIMELINESS
PRESENTATION

5 - Exemplary Performance
4 – Above Average
3 – Average
2 – Below Average
1 – Low Performance

PROBLEM 1:
The Music Theater Club is planning a trip to Philippine International Convention
Center (PICC). While in PICC, they want to attend 2 plays out of 8 plays they would
like to see. How many ways can they choose 2
plays from 8 plays to attend.

Solution: arrangement is NOT IMPORTANT.


Find the keyword: CHOOSE
Use the Formula: (Combination)

Substitute the given values:


n=8
r=2
Expand and simplify.
8!
8C2 = 2!(8−2)!
8C2 = 8𝑥7𝑥6𝑥5𝑥4𝑥3𝑥2𝑥1
2! 6!
8C2 =8𝑥7𝑥6𝑥5𝑥4𝑥3𝑥2𝑥1
2𝑥1𝑥6!
8C2 = 8𝑥7

The photo below is the roster of 12 players in a Philippine basketball team
(GINEBRA), and the coach needs to select 5 to put into a game. How many ways
can the coach pick a team of 5 if each person has an equal chance of being selected?

Solution: arrangement is NOT IMPORTANT.


Find the keyword: pick
Use the Formula: (Combination)

Substitute the given values:


n = 12
r=5
Expand and simplify.
12!
12C5 = 5!(12−5)!
12C5 = 12𝑥11𝑥10𝑥9𝑥8𝑥7
5! 7!
12C5 = 12𝑥11𝑥10𝑥9𝑥8𝑥7
5𝑥4𝑥3𝑥2𝑥1𝑥7!

beach-ready bodies for their swimsuit challenge entries. If 10
ladies are competing in the swimsuit challenge to secure a spot in the pageant, in
how many ways can the analyst pick three finalists?
Solution: arrangement is IMPORTANT.
Find the keyword: position (1st,2nd,3rd)
Use the Formula: (Permutation)

Substitute the given values:


n = 10
r=3
Expand and simplify.
10!
10P3 = (10−3)!
10P3 = 10𝑥9𝑥8𝑥7𝑥6𝑥5𝑥4𝑥3𝑥2𝑥1
7!
10P3 = 10𝑥9𝑥8𝑥7𝑥6𝑥5𝑥4𝑥3𝑥2𝑥1
7𝑥6𝑥5𝑥4𝑥3𝑥2𝑥1
10P3 = 10x9x8
10P3 = 720 ways

PROBLEM 4:
Example #2:
In how many ways can 3 milk tea toppings be selected from 6 toppings? (organic
green tea, taro, caramel coffee, strawberry, mango graham, and chocolate).

Solution: arrangement is NOT IMPORTANT.


Find the keyword: selected
Use the Formula: (Combination)

Substitute the given values:


n=6
r=3
Expand and simplify.
6!
6C4 = 4!(6−4)!
6C4 = 6𝑥5𝑥4𝑥3𝑥2𝑥1
4! 2!
6𝑥5𝑥4𝑥3𝑥2𝑥1
6C4 = 4𝑥3𝑥2𝑥1𝑥2!
6C4 = 6𝑥5𝑥4𝑥3
4𝑥3𝑥2𝑥1
6C4 = 360
24
6C4= 15 ways
