If there are n different objects, the number of permutations is factorial n which is also written as n! and is equal to 1*2*3*...*(n-1)*n.

Is the number of permutations of two items from a data set is always two times the number of combinations when taking two objects at a time from the same data set?
Yes
The number of permutations of two items from a data set is?
Not answereable without knowledge of the data set.
How can you Find the number of combinations of objects in a set?
The number of R-combinations in a set of N objects is C= N!/R!(N-R)! or the factorial of N divided by the factorial of R and the Factorial of N minus R. For example, the number of 3 combinations from a set of 4 objects is 4!/3!(4-3)! = 24/6x1= 4.
What do you call the numbers of a set?
The objects within a number set can be caled as "Elements" or "members".
How many different 4 letter permutations are there for the letters in the word toolroom?
120 four letter permutations if you don't allow more than one 'o' in the four letterarrangement.209 four letter permutations if you allow two, three and all four 'o'.1.- Let set A = {t,l,r,m,}, and set B = {o,o,o,o}.2.- From set A, the number of 4 letter permutations is 4P4 = 24.3.- 3 letters from set A give 4P3 = 24, and one 'o' can take 4 different positions in theword. That gives us 24x4 = 96 four letter permutations.4.- In total, 24 + 96 = 120 different four letter permutations.5.- If the other three 'o' are allowed to play, then you have 2 letters from set A thatgive 4P2 = 12 permutations and two 'o' can take 4C2 = 6 position's, giving 12x6 = 72four letter permutations.6.- One letter from set A we have 4P1 = 4, each one can take 4 different positions, therest of the spaces taken by three 'o' gives 4x4 = 16 different permutations.7.- The four 'o' make only one permutation.8.- So now we get 72 + 16 + 1 = 89 more arrangements adding to a total of 89 + 120 = 209 different 4 letter arrangements made from the letters of the word toolroom.[ nCr = n!/((n-r)!∙r!); nPr = n!/(n-r)! ]
Is the number of permutations of 2 items from the same data set always 2 times the number of combiations when taking 2 objects from a data set?
Yes
Is the number of permutations of two items from a data set is always two times the number of combinations when taking two objects at a time from the same data set?
Yes
How do you calculate distinguishable permutations?
The number of permutations of n distinct objects is n! = 1*2*3* ... *n. If a set contains n objects, but k of them are identical (non-distinguishable), then the number of distinct permutations is n!/k!. If the n objects contains j of them of one type, k of another, then there are n!/(j!*k!). The above pattern can be extended. For example, to calculate the number of distinct permutations of the letters of "statistics": Total number of letters: 10 Number of s: 3 Number of t: 3 Number of i: 2 So the answer is 10!/(3!*3!*2!) = 50400
The number of permutations of two items from a data set is?

What is a general formula for the permutation nPr in terms of n and r For instance if you have the permutation nP1 how do you find n?
Permutation Formula A formula for the number of possible permutations of k objects from a set of n. This is usually written nPk . Formula:Example:How many ways can 4 students from a group of 15 be lined up for a photograph? Answer: There are 15P4 possible permutations of 4 students from a group of 15. different lineups
Can EXCEL generate different permitations?
Using the Permut function, you can find out how many permutations can be got from a set of values. To actually generate the individual permutations you would need a program.
How can you Find the number of combinations of objects in a set?
The number of R-combinations in a set of N objects is C= N!/R!(N-R)! or the factorial of N divided by the factorial of R and the Factorial of N minus R. For example, the number of 3 combinations from a set of 4 objects is 4!/3!(4-3)! = 24/6x1= 4.
How do you find the permutation?
You do not have to figure the permutation. You simply rearrange the order of the numbers that you are presented with. The permutations of the number set 1, 2, 3 include 1, 3, 2, and 2, 1, 3.
What is the notation for a permutations?
The Greek letter pi. pi(abcd) represents permutations of the letters in the set {a,b,c,d}.
What is the number of ways to arrange 8 objects from a set of 12 different objects?
2.026
What do you call the numbers of a set?
The objects within a number set can be caled as "Elements" or "members".
How do you find the cardinal number to a set?
Count the number of distinct elements in the set.
