The newly elected president needs to decide the remaining 8 spots available in the cabinet he/she is appointing. If there are 14 eligible candidates for these positions (where rank matters), how many different ways can the members of the cabinet be appointed?

The members of the cabinet can be appointed in 121,080,960 different ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rank is important(matters), which means that the order in which the candidates are chosen is important. That is, if we exchange the position of two candidates, it is a new outcome. So we use the permutations formula to solve this quesiton.

Permutations formula:

The number of possible permutations of x elements from a set of n elements is given by the following formula:

If there are 14 eligible candidates for these positions (where rank matters), how many different ways can the members of the cabinet be appointed?
