The correct Answer is:
To evaluate the expression \(\frac{n!}{(n-r)!}\) for the given values of \(n\) and \(r\), we will follow these steps: ### Part (i): \(n = 6\), \(r = 2\) 1. **Substitute the values into the formula**: \[ \frac{n!}{(n-r)!} = \frac{6!}{(6-2)!} = \frac{6!}{4!} \] 2. **Expand the factorials**: \[ 6! = 6 \times 5 \times 4! \] So, we can rewrite the expression: \[ \frac{6!}{4!} = \frac{6 \times 5 \times 4!}{4!} \] 3. **Cancel \(4!\) from the numerator and denominator**: \[ \frac{6 \times 5 \times 4!}{4!} = 6 \times 5 \] 4. **Calculate the result**: \[ 6 \times 5 = 30 \] Thus, the answer for part (i) is **30**. ### Part (ii): \(n = 9\), \(r = 5\) 1. **Substitute the values into the formula**: \[ \frac{n!}{(n-r)!} = \frac{9!}{(9-5)!} = \frac{9!}{4!} \] 2. **Expand the factorials**: \[ 9! = 9 \times 8 \times 7 \times 6 \times 5 \times 4! \] So, we can rewrite the expression: \[ \frac{9!}{4!} = \frac{9 \times 8 \times 7 \times 6 \times 5 \times 4!}{4!} \] 3. **Cancel \(4!\) from the numerator and denominator**: \[ \frac{9 \times 8 \times 7 \times 6 \times 5 \times 4!}{4!} = 9 \times 8 \times 7 \times 6 \times 5 \] 4. **Calculate the result step by step**: - First, calculate \(6 \times 5 = 30\) - Next, calculate \(30 \times 7 = 210\) - Then, calculate \(210 \times 8 = 1680\) - Finally, calculate \(1680 \times 9 = 15120\) Thus, the answer for part (ii) is **15120**. ### Summary of Answers: - Part (i): 30 - Part (ii): 15120
