<PRE><B>Question 397991</B>
A baseball manager chooses his lineup 1-9. How many ways can he organize his lineup if the pitcher does not hit in the first four? 
I did 9*8*7*6*6*5*4*3*2
-----
Since the pitcher is not in the 1st four,
8 ways to choose 1st
7 ways to choose 2nd
6 ways to choose 3rd
5 ways to choose 4th
5 ways to choose 3rd
4 ways
3 ways
2 ways
1 ways
