Answer:

72

Explanation:

Formula: P (n,r) = n! ÷ (n - r)!

n = Total number of objects in a set

r = The number of items you choose


!/Factorial = Product of all positive numbers less than or equal to the given positive number


9! = 1 x 2 x 3 x 4 x 5 x 6 x 7 x 8 x 9

7! = 1 x 2 x 3 x 4 x 5 x 6 x 7


P (9,2) = 9! ÷ (9-2)!

362,880 ÷ 5,040 = 72
