If $\frac{^{n+2}C_6}{^{n-2}P_2} = 11$, then $n$ satisfies the equation :
Updated On: Sep 30, 2024
- $n^2 + 3n - 108 =0 $
- $n^2 + 5n - 84 =0 $
- $n^2 + 2n - 80 =0 $
- $n^2 + n - 110 =0 $

The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
$\frac{{ }^{ n +2} C _{6}}{ n -2 P _{2}} =11 $
$\Rightarrow \frac{( n +2) !}{6 !( n -4) !}=11 .\frac{( n -2) !}{( n -4) !} $
$\Rightarrow ( n +2) !=11 . 6 !( n -2) ! $
$\Rightarrow ( n +2)( n +1) n ( n -1)=11.6 ! $
$ \Rightarrow ( n +2)( n +1) n ( n -1)=11.10 .9 .8 $
$ \Rightarrow n +2=11 $
$\Rightarrow n =9$
Which satifies the $n^{2}+3 n-108=0$

Concepts Used:
Permutations and Combinations
Permutation:
Permutation is the method or the act of arranging members of a set into an order or a sequence.
- In the process of rearranging the numbers, subsets of sets are created to determine all possible arrangement sequences of a single data point.
- A permutation is used in many events of daily life. It is used for a list of data where the data order matters.
Combination:
Combination is the method of forming subsets by selecting data from a larger set in a way that the selection order does not matter.
- Combination refers to the combination of about n things taken k at a time without any repetition.
- The combination is used for a group of data where the order of data does not matter.
