Answer:

The first 4 guests can arrive at party in 1365 ways if 15 guest have been invited

Explanation:

Total number of guests invited = 15

We are supposed to find in how many ways can the first 4 guest arrive at a party if 15 guest have been invited

We will use combination

Formula :
^nC_r=(n!)/(r!(n-r)!)

Substitute n = 15 and r = 4

So,Total no. of ways =
(15!)/(4!(15-4)!)=1365

Hence the first 4 guests can arrive at party in 1365 ways if 15 guest have been invited
