You can put this solution on YOUR website! 2 ways to choose the first book (F)and therefore 1 way to choose the second.
Of the other 9 books, the first has 9 possibilities, the second 8, ... Since all the math books are different and all the history books are different, may treat each of the 9 as unique.
This is 2*9!
