Answer:

990 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of automobiles we have is 11.

Now, what this means is that for the first position , we shall be selecting 1 out of 11 automobiles, this can be done in 11 ways( 11C1 = 11!/(11-1)!1! = 11!/10!1! = 11 ways)

For the second position, since we have the first position already, the number of ways we can select the second position is selecting 1 out of available 10 and that can be done in 10 ways(10C1 ways = 10!9!1! = 10 ways)

For the third position, we have 9 automobiles and we want to select 1, this can be done in 9 ways(9C1 ways = 9!/8!1! = 9 ways)

Thus, the total number of ways the first three finishers come in = 11 * 10 * 9 = 990 ways

Kevin had a total of $320 to spend while shopping. He had spent $156 on video games. He wants to buy caps that are on sale for $
zloy xaker [14]

Maximum number of caps that Kevin can buy is 10.

Solution:

Total money for shopping = $320

Amount spent for video game = $156

Remaining amount that Kevin had = $320 – $156

                                                         = $164

Cost of each cap including tax = $15

$\text{Number of caps can buy }=\frac{\text { Remaining amount that Kevin had }}{\text { cost of each cap }}$

                                       $=\frac{164}{15}

                                      $=10\frac{14}{15}

Maximum number of caps that Kevin can buy is 10.
