Question

Can Anyone Explain How To Do This Problem Please?! 17^C 4
Ill write it in the reply

Answer 1

????

Answer 2

n C r = (n!)/(r!(n-r)!)


17 C 4 = (17!)/(4!*(17-4)!)


17 C 4 = (17!)/(4!*13!)


17 C 4 = (17*16*15*14*13!)/(4!*13!)


17 C 4 = (17*16*15*14)/(4!)


17 C 4 = (17*16*15*14)/(4*3*2*1)


17 C 4 = (57120)/(24)


17 C 4 = 2380

Answer 3

ooohhhh I get t thank you so much!

Answer 4

sure thing

Answer 5

do you do the same thing even if its a different letter?

Answer 6

If it's a P instead of a C, then no

Answer 7

Ok so how would you work a P Example 12^P 5

Answer 8

n P r = (n!)/((n-r)!)


12 P 5 = (12!)/((12-5)!)


12 P 5 = (12!)/(7!)


12 P 5 = (12*11*10*9*8*7!)/(7!)


12 P 5 = 12*11*10*9*8


12 P 5 = 95040

Answer 9

Ok thank you you tought it better than my teacher!

Answer 10

Answer 11

Ok so how would you work a P Example 12^P 5
