Find the value of 11 P 3

1 answer:

8 0

When a set of given numbers or items is to be arranged in a definite way or pattern, permutation can be used to determine the number of ways in which this can be done. Thus the required answer to the question is 990.

$_{n} P_{r}$ = $\frac{n!}{(n - r)!}$

where: n is the total number of items given, and r is the number of items selected.

Thus the given question can be solved as :

$_{11} P_{3}$ = $\frac{11!}{(11-3)!}$

= $\frac{11!}{8!}$

= $\frac{11 * 10 * 9 * 8!}{8!}$

= 11 x 10 x 9

= 990

$_{11} P_{3}$ = 990

Therefore, the required answer is 990.

Answer: The cost to tile the floor is $318.24.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Dimensions of floor is 12 by 17 foot.

So, Area of floor would be

$12\times 17\\\\=204\ sq.\ foot$

As we know that 1 foot = 12 inch

So, Area of floor would be

$204\times (12)^2\\\\=204\times 144\\\\=29376\ sq.\ foot$

Dimension of brick tiles is given by

$3\dfrac{5}{8}\ by\ 7\dfrac{5}{8}\ by\ \dfrac{1}{2}$

So, Area of brick tiles is given by

$2(lb+bh+lh)\\\\=2(\dfrac{29}{8}\times \dfrac{61}{8}+\dfrac{61}{8}\times \dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{29}{8}\times \dfrac{1}{2})\\\\=2(\dfrac{1769}{64}+\dfrac{61}{16}+\dfrac{29}{16})\\\\=2\times \dfrac{1769+244+116}{64}\\\\=\dfrac{2129}{32}$
