$P\left(6,2\right)$

To determine

To find: The value of each permutation.

Answer to Problem 7AYU

30

Explanation of Solution

Given:

$P\left(6,2\right)$

Formula used:

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

Calculation:

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

$P\left(6,2\right)=\frac{6!}{\left(6-2\right)!}$

$P\left(6,2\right)=\frac{6!}{4!}$

$P\left(6,2\right)=\frac{6*5*4!}{4!}=30$
