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

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 .

step-by-step explanation:

the 8 in 8,420 is in the thousands place so it's value is 8 thousand.

the 8 in 6,870 is in the hundreds place so it's value is 8 hundred.

divide 8000 by 800 to find the answer:

8000 / 800 = 10

the 8 in 8,420 is 10 times greater than the 8 in 6,870
