Answer: 120

Step-by-step explanation:

The permutation of n things taken r at a time is given by expression :-

[tex]^nP_r[/tex]

The formula to evaluate [tex]^nP_r[/tex] is given by :-

[tex]^nP_r=\dfrac{n!}{(n-r)}[/tex]

Then , [tex]^5P_5[/tex]  will be :-

[tex]^5P_5=\dfrac{5!}{(5-5)!}[/tex]

Since , [tex]n!=n(n-1)(n-2).......(2)(1)[/tex]

Then , [tex]^5P_5=\dfrac{5\times4\times3\times2\times1}{0!}=120\ \ \ \text{Also,}0!=1[/tex]

Therefore, the value of the expression [tex]^5P_5=120[/tex]
