➷ Assuming the roles will be filled in order, this is how you would figure it out

(e.g. role 1 is assigned, then role 2 is assigned)

There would be 9 possible candidates for the first position

Once that position has been decided, the second position will have 8 possible candidates

FOr the third position, there will be 7 possible candidates

6 possible candidates for the fourth position

5 possible candidates for the fifth position

To find all the different possibilities, you need to multiply the number of possible candidates for each role together:

9 x 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 = 15120

It would be option B

Answer 2

Hey there!

"A student government has 5 positions to fill and there are 9 candidates running for any one of the positions. How many different possibilities are there for the 5 positions?"

1. Highlight your key terms (this step helps you understand the question/ word problem better). We are going a little bit downward. until we find out what we're going to do to solve this equation :)
2. We have about 9 possible candidates for your "First position"
3. Your "second position" would probably most likely going to be 8, I believe
4. For your "third position" you would have it as 7
5. For your "fourth position" you would most likely have about 6
6. And last but not least for your "fifth position" the amount of candidates would most likely be 5
7. Now that we have that portion out of the way, let's solve for your answer!
