COUNTING AND PROBABILITY EXERCISES.

EXERCISE 1

Sebastian is going to choose the color, pattern, font, and image for the design of a sweatshirt
for his dance team. There are 10 colors, 4 patterns, 12 fonts, and 9 images for him to choose
from. (The printing company charges a fee to add extra design elements, so he will choose only
one of each.)

How many different sweatshirt designs are possible?

EXERCISE 2

EXERCISE 4

Michael is taking a quiz in his music history class. The teacher writes the names of 6 songs on
the board, and then plays 4 songs out of the 6, one after the other in a random sequence.
Michael then needs to identify each of the songs in the sequence they were played.

Suppose that Michael hasn't studied and is randomly guessing the songs.

What is the probability that Michael correctly identifies all 4 songs in the correct order?
