Exercise 14 Page 704

Recall the formula for a permutation, _n P_r = n!/(n-r)!.

Practice makes perfect

To evaluate the given permutation, we will use the corresponding formula. _n P_r = n!/(n-r)! We are given that n=12 and r=0. Let's substitute these values into the formula.

_n P_r = n!/(n-r)!

n= 12, r= 0

_(12) P_0 = 12!/( 12- 0)!

Subtract term

_(12) P_0 = 12!/12!

a/a=1
