Part A
Since order matters, we use the nPr permutation formula
We use n = 12 and r = 8
There are a little under 20 million different permutations.

============================================================
Part B
In this case, order doesn't matter. We could use the nCr combination formula like so.
We have a much smaller number compared to last time because order isn't important. Consider a group of 3 people {A,B,C} and this group is identical to {C,B,A}. This idea applies to groups of any number.
-----------------
Another way we can compute the answer is to use the result from part A.
Recall that:
nCr = (nPr)/(r!)
If we know the permutation value, we simply divide by r! to get the combination value. In this case, we divide by r! = 8! = 8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1 = 40,320
So,
Not only is this shortcut fairly handy, but it's also interesting to see how the concepts of combinations and permutations connect to one another.

<h3>Answer: 495</h3>Answer:
E) 35°, 70°.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the triangle has angles of a°, 2a° and 75°.
A triangle is a polygon shape that has three sides and three angles. The sum of angles in a triangle is 180°. There are different types of triangles such as scalene triangle, isosceles triangle, equilateral triangle e.t.c.
In the triangle:
a + 2a + 75 = 180° (sum of angles in a triangle)
3a + 75 = 180
adding -75 to both sides:
3a + 75 - 75 = 180 - 75
3a = 105
a = 105/3
a = 35°
Hence 2a = 2(35) = 70°
Therefore a = 35° and 2a = 70°
