Zane wants to teach his new puppy some tricks. If he wants to teach every trick from a book that includes catching a ball, fetching the newspaper, standing, and begging, in how many different orders can the puppy learn the tricks?
orders
There are 4 different tricks that the puppy can learn. Therefore, the number of different orders in which the puppy can learn the tricks is given by the factorial of 4, which is:
4! = 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 24
So there are 24 different orders in which the puppy can learn the tricks.
To find the number of different orders in which the puppy can learn the tricks, we need to determine the number of permutations.
Since there are 4 tricks, we can arrange them in 4! (4 factorial) ways.
4! = 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 24
Therefore, the puppy can learn the tricks in 24 different orders.
