What are permutation and combination?
A permutation is an act of arranging the objects or elements in order. Combinations are the way of selecting objects or elements from a group of objects or collections, in such a way the order of the objects does not matter.
There are 18 football teams in a league.
Each team plays two matches against each of the other teams.
Then the total number of matches played by the teams will be given by the permutation.
[tex]^{n}P_r = \dfrac{n!}{(n-r)!}[/tex]
We have
n = 18
r = 2
Then
[tex]\rm ^{18}P_2 = \dfrac{18!}{(18-2)!}\\\\\\^{18}P_2 = \dfrac{18!}{16!}\\\\\\^{18}P_2 = \dfrac{18 *17*16!}{16!}\\\\\\^{18}P_2 = 18*17\\\\\\^{18}P_2 = 306[/tex]
