Answer:

$P(4,3) = 4!$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

P(4,3)

Required

Solve

Using permutation formula;

$P(n,r) = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!}$

This implies that

$P(4,3) = \frac{4!}{(4-3)!}$

$P(4,3) = \frac{4!}{(1)!}$

$P(4,3) = \frac{4!}{1!}$

$P(4,3) = \frac{4!}{1}$

$P(4,3) = 4!$

Answer:

So, C, and D.. can easily be marked incorrect. This is because in the question it asks, "Atleast 16" This leaves us with answer choice A and B. Answer choice (A), is a closed circle, while answer choice (B) is an open circle.

Closed circles include the number at the end point (less than/greater than/equal to), and open circles do not (less than greater than).

answer choice A. Closed circle, shifting to the right.
