BB pg 411 # 14

<p>this is the only one i missed in the math section. please help me. </p>

<h1>14. Exactly 4 actors try out for the 4 parts in a play. If each actor can perform any one part and now one will perform more than one part, how many different assignments of actors are possible?</h1>

<p>Feedback or explanation would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!</p>

<p>There are 4 possibilities for the role of the first part, 3 possibilities for the role of the second part, 2 possibilities for the role of the third part and 1 possibility for the role of the fourth part.
Thus, 4<em>3</em>2*1=24</p>

<p>You do not have to divide the result because in this situation, the roles are all different.</p>

<p>wow...., i really feel stupid now......</p>

<p>Thanks though!</p>
