For 1 ≤ r ≤ n , 1 r + 1 P r + 1 n - P r + 1 ( n - 1 ) is equal to

Options

  1. An P n
  2. Bn − 1 P r
  3. Cn P n + 1
  4. D0

Correct answer

B. n − 1 P r

Step-by-step solution

Using P r n = n ! n - r ! we get, 1 r + 1 P r + 1 n - P r + 1 ( n - 1 ) = 1 r + 1 n ! n - r - 1 ! - n - 1 ! n - r - 1 - 1 ! = 1 r + 1 n ! - n - r - 1 n - 1 ! n - r - 1 ! = 1 r + 1 n - 1 ! n - n + r + 1 n - r - 1 ! = n - 1 ! n - r - 1 ! = P r n - 1
