Answer:
a) P = 362880 ways
b) P = 2880 ways
Step-by-step explanation:
a) We have four boys and five girls, they are going to sit together in a row of 9 theater seats, without restrictions
We have a permutation of 9 elements
P = 9!
P = 9*8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1
P = 362880 ways
b) Boys must seat together, we have two groups of people
4 boys they can seat in 4! different ways
P₁ = 4!
P₁ = 4*3*2*1
P₁ = 24
And girls can seat in 5! dfferent ways
P₂ = 5!
P₂ = 5*4*3*2*1
P₂ = 120
To get total ways in the above mentioned condition, we have to multiply P₁*P₂
P = 24*120
P = 2880 ways
"Factors" just means numbers in the context of multiplication - so we just need to name a pair of numbers that, when multiplied, give 8.
Those would be: 1 and 8
2 and 4
so there are two solution to this question: 1 and 8, 2 and 4!
we can also include negative numbers:
-1 and -8
-2 and -4
because a multiplication of two negative numbers gives a positive result!
