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.

i buy 3 apples to 4 bananas. If I buy 6 more bananas than apples, how many total pieces of fruit did I buy?
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

42

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference in ratio units is 1, which corresponds to a difference in fruit count of 6. So the total of 7 ratio units must represent 7×6 = 42 pieces of fruit.

What is the equation of the following graph?
nignag [31]

Answer:

{y}^{2}  = 24x

Step-by-step explanation:

This is horizontal parabola.

It has a directrix at x=-6.

The vertex is (0,0).

The focus is (6,0)

The equation of this parabola is of the form

{y}^{2}  = 4px

Where (p,0) is the focus

By comparison, p=6

Therefore the equation of the parabola is

{y}^{2}  = 4 \times 6x

This implies that

{y}^{2}  =2 4 x
