Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is permutation problem. permutations is the number of arrangements or orderings within a constant group.

The formula for permutation is given as

nPk = n!÷(n-k)!

Where n is the number of objects, k is the is the number of objects we want to chose from.

Solution to the question

15P8 = 15!÷(15-8)!

= 15!÷7!

= 15×14×13×12×11×10×9×8×7×6×5×4×3×2×1÷7×6×5×4×3×2×1

= 259459200

What is the area of the sector?
xeze [42]

Area of the sector is 981.3 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Find the area of the sector where radius = 50 cm and central angle = 45°

Area of the sector = πr² (C/360), where r is radius and C is the central angle

⇒ Area = 3.14 × 50² × (45/360)

            = 3.14 × 2500 × 1/8

            = 7850/8 = 981.3 cm²

There are four of the 4x1

so 4x4=16 and 1x2=2
16+2=18
