MCQ
If P(n, r) = C(n, r) then
  • A
    r = 0 or 2
  • B
    r = 1 or n
  • C
    r = 0 or 1
  • D
    n = r

Answer

(c) $r =0$ or 1
Explanation: Given $P ( n , r )= C ( n , r )$
$\begin{array}{l}\Rightarrow \frac{n!}{(n-r)!}=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!} \\ \Rightarrow 1=\frac{1}{r!} \\ \Rightarrow r!=1 \\ \Rightarrow r=0 \text { or } r=1[\because 0!=1,1!=1]\end{array}$
