Possible answers:

1. a . P ( 8,8 )=8+7 +6+5+ 4+3+ 2+ 1=36 :wrong use ofoperation


8 ∙7 ∙ 6 ∙5 ∙ 4 ∙ 3 ∙2 ∙ 1
b. P ( 8,8 )= =1 :wrong use of formula(combination formula).
8 ∙7 ∙ 6 ∙5 ∙ 4 ∙ 3 ∙2 ∙ 1

2. a . 4 ! ∙ 5 !=2880 : 2 more possible ways of arrangement was not considered, hence, the
solution is not complete
b . 4 ! +5 !+2 !=146 : 4 ! , 5! ,2 ! should be mutiplied ¿ each other , wrong use of operation

3. a . 5 !=120 : this applies on if the people are to take pictures altogether.


b . 5 !+2 !=120+ 2=122 : wrong use of operation

4. a . 12!=479 001600 : wrong use of formula, since it involves circular permutation the formula
to be used is (n-1)!
12 !
b . c (12,12)= =1 : Combination formula was used
12 !

5. a . P(6,6)=6 !=720 : wrong concept of permutation, distinguishable permutation applies


b . P=(n−1) !=(6−1)!=5!=120 : wrong use of formula
