Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
To arrange 17 books on a shelf from a possible we use the combination formula :
nCr = n! ÷ (n-r)!r!
17C10 = 17! ÷ 7! 10!
17C10 = 19448 ways
To arrange the books in alphabetical order :
2)
In question, 2, the order of arrangement matters ; hence, we use permutation ;
nPr = n! ÷ (n-r)!
17P10 = 17! ÷ (17 - 10)! = 17! ÷ 7!
17P10 = 70572902400
