We have been given two expressions 9P9\text{ and }9C9. We are asked to find the value of each.

To find 9P9, we will use permutations formula.

^nP_r=\frac{n!}{(n-r)!}, where

P = Number of permutations,

n = The total number of objects in the set,

r = Number of objects being chosen from the set.

9P9=\frac{9!}{(9-9)!}

9P9=\frac{9\cdot 8\cdot 7\cdot 6\cdot 5\cdot 4\cdot 3\cdot 2\cdot 1}{(0)!}

9P9=\frac{362880}{1}                   Using 0!=1

9P9=362880

To find 9C9, we will use combinations formula.

^nC_r=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}, where

C = Number of combinations,

n = The total number of objects in the set,

r = Number of objects being chosen from the set.

9C9=\frac{9!}{9!(9-9)!}

9C9=\frac{9!}{9!(0)!}

9C9=\frac{9!}{9!\cdot 1}     Using 0!=1

Cancelling out 9!, we will get:

9C9=\frac{1}{1}

9C9=1

The answers differ because order. With permutations we care about the order of the elements, while with combinations we don't.
