To do this, we would be assuming that k!>2k and would need to prove that (k+1)!>2k+1. Hence, by the Second Principle of Mathematical Induction, we conclude that P(n) is true for all nN with n2, and this means that each natural number greater than 1 is either a prime number or is a product of prime numbers.

Since the first letter must be a consonant, we have four choices for the first position, and once we use up a consonant, there are only three consonants left for the last spot. 7P2=7!5!=765432154321=42

We could easily count the number of elements in the sample space. If there are a large number of elements in the sample space we can use counting techniques such as permutations or combinations to count them.
