  2. Multiplication Principle of Counting If a task consists of a sequence of choices in which there are p selections for the first choice, q selections for the second choice, r selections for the third choice, and so on. Then the task of making these selections can be done in the following number of different ways.

  3. If a license plate consists of a letter, then 5 numbers, how many different types of license plates are possible?

  6. A permutation is an ordered arrangement of n distinct objects without repetitions. The symbol nPr represents the number of permutations of n distinct objects, taken r at a time,where r<n.

  7. Determine the value of 9P3.

  8. Suppose a committee consists of 10 people. In how many ways can the chair and vice-chair of the committee be chosen if the first person randomly selected is the chair and the second person randomly selected is the vice-chair.
