Answer:
Probability p( selecting 8 cities alphabetically) = 2.48×10^-5
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of possible ways of choosing 8 cities=Permutation P(n,k) = n!/(n-k)!
P(8,8)= 8!/(8-8)! = 8! = 40,320
Probability (selecting 8 cities alphabetically) = 1/40320 = 2.48×10^-5
Answer:
The answer is 0.00002480
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question stated let us recall the following statement.
The number of cities the tourist wants to visit is =8
Now,
If the route is selected randomly, what is the probability that the cities she visits are in alphabetical order.
Therefore,
The probability that she visits the cities in alphabetical order = 1/8!
There are 8! = 40320 ways in which these cities can be visited
P(Visiting in alphabetical order) = 1/40320 = 0.00002480
