The number of permutations of picking 4 pens from the box is 30.
There are six different unique colored pens in a box.
We have to select four pens from the different unique colored pens.
We have to find in how many different orders the four pens can be selected.
<h3>What is a permutation?</h3>
A permutation is the number of different arrangements of a set of items in a particular definite order.
The formula used for permutation of n items for r selection is:

Where n! = n(n-1)(n-2)(n-3)..........1 and r! = r(r-1)(r-2)(r-3)........1
We have,
Number of colored pens = 6
n = 6.
Number of pens to be selected = 4
r = 4
Applying the permutation formula.
We get,
= 
= 6! / 4!
=(6x5x4x3x2x1 ) / ( 4x3x2x1)
= 6x5
=30
Thus the number of permutations of picking 4 pens from a total of 6 unique colored pens in the box is 30.

Answer:
Option C is the correct answer.
C. 5•(-20)
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that the insurance payment for the car follows a certain pattern that can be represented through an expression. The payment is decreasing by $20 every year. As we don't know the total payment amount per period, so we cannot calculate how much is paid per period/year for insurance but we can calculate the rate at which this payment is decreasing.
Change in payment = t * (-20)
The above expressions can be used to calculate the amount of change in payment i payment is decreasing by a constant $20 every year, after t years.
So, if we want to calculate the change in payment after say 5 years, we can replace t with 5 in the equation and calculate the change,
Change in payment = 5 * (-20)
Change in payment = - $100
Answer:
-4.32 would be the answer

First let us determine the total number of combinations that
can be made from these pair. The number of combinations can simply be
calculated by multiplication, so:
Combination = 4 * 4 = 16
Since we know that for each shirt color, there is a
corresponding sock with the same color. So there are 4 matching pairs.
Therefore the unmatching pairs are 12. Calculating the probability to get
unmatching pair would be:
Probability of unmatching pair = 12/16 = 0.75
Interpretation: There is a 75% probability that his socks
and shirt wont match.
