Our club has 25 members, and wishes to pick a president, secretary, and treasurer. In how many ways can we choose the officers, if: (a)individual members can only hold at most one office

13800

Step-by-step explanation:

The order of the members is important (because each selected member will receive a different position), thus we then need to use the definition of permutation.

There are 25 members, of which 3 are selected.

Evaluate the definition of a combination:

solution:

→c= a b , that is product of a and b is possible only when when a is m × n matrix and b is n × p matrix.

that is, number of columns of a= number of rows of b.

so, size of matrix , c= a b is , if a = (m × n)matrix

b= (n × p)matrix

then a b = [ (m × n)matrix] ×[   (n × p)matrix ]

→→c= a b= [m × p ] matrix

→→size of product a b will be equal to = number of rows of a × number of columns of b
