A) Since there are 8 switches that can be set in 2 positions each I would take 2 to the 8th power or 2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2=256.Therefore there are 256 different ways to set the switches.
B) If it takes 2 minutes to set the switches the longest possible time would be, 2×256=512 minutes.
C) Another real world example of this could be – if you were taking a test with 10 questions and each question had 3 possible answers, how many different ways can you answer the 10 questions? If it takes you 1 minute per question how many minutes would it take to answer all 10 questions in all the different permutaions?
