your class is electing a vice president. how many ways a president and and a vice president be seleteced 25

600?

Yes, that's correct! There are 600 ways to select both a president and a vice president from a class of 25 students.

To determine the number of ways a president and vice president can be selected from a class of 25 students, we can use the concept of combinations.

First, we need to select one student for the position of the president. We have 25 options to choose from.

Next, once the president has been chosen, we need to select one student from the remaining 24 students for the position of vice president.

The total number of ways to select the president and vice president can be found by multiplying the number of options for each position. Therefore, the number of ways the president and vice president can be selected is:

25 * 24 = 600

So, there are 600 possible ways to select a president and vice president from a class of 25 students.

Nope. Not 25.

Order matters in this instance.

It is more important to be pres, then vice.
so...
if you have 25 students there are 25 ways to get your president, then there are only 24 students left to be selected from for vice
25x24 =......
