David 的所有电话号码形式为 555–abc–defg,其中 a, b, c, d, e, f, g 是不同的数字且按升序排列,且都不为 0 或 1。David 可以有多少个不同的电话号码?
(A) 1 1
(B) 2 2
(C) 7 7
(D) 8 8
(E) 9 9
Answer
Correct choice: (D)
正确答案:(D)
Solution
The last seven digits of the phone number use seven of the eight digits ${2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}$, so all but one of these digits is used. The unused digit can be chosen in eight ways. The remaining seven digits are then placed in increasing order to obtain a possible phone number. Thus there are 8 possible phone numbers.
电话号码的后七位使用 {2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9} 中的七个数字,因此漏掉其中一个数字。未使用的数字有 8 种选择。然后剩余的七个数字按升序排列即可得到一个可能的电话号码。因此共有 8 个可能的电话号码。
