You work as a health inspector and must visit each of the 15 restaurants in town once each week.
a) In how many different orders can you make these inspections?
b) If you were to work 50 weeks a year and use a different order every week, how long would it take you to try all of the different possible orders

Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The no of different ways in which these restaurants can be visited

= ¹⁵P₁₅

= 15 x 14 x 13 x 12 x 11 x 10 x 9 x 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

= 1.30 x 10¹²

b ) Each combination takes 1 week and 50 weeks in  a year to work

No of years to take to try all the combination

= 1.30 x 10¹² / 50

= 2.615 x 10¹⁰ years .
