Answer:

220 combinations.

Step-by-step explanation:

This will be 12C3 combinations.

= 12! /  [(12-3)! 3!].

A quick mehtod to calculate this is  12*11*10 / 3*2*1

= 2*11*10

= 220.

Answer:

220 color combinations are possible.

Step-by-step explanation:

A combination is a way of selecting members from a grouping, such that the order of selection does not matter.

in our case we have 3-combinations of a set of 12 elements:

C(12, 3) = 12!/(3! (12-3)!)

C(12, 3) = 12!/(3! 9!)

C(12, 3) = (10*11*12)/(2*3)

C(12, 3) = 220 color combinations are possible.

Find the sum and the product of the roots of the equation:<br><br> x^2−37x+27=0
lawyer [7]

Answer:

Sum of the Roots = 37

Product of the Roots = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given expression is  x^{2}  - 37x + 27 = 0

Now the general Quadratic Equation is of the form:

ax^{2}  + bx + c = 0

Here, Sum of the Roots = -(\frac{b}{a} )

and the Product of the Roots =  (\frac{c}{a} )

So, comparing the general equation with the given equation, we get:

a = 1, b = -37 and c = 27

So, Sum of the Roots = -(\frac{-37}{1} )  =  37

and the Product of the Roots =  (\frac{27}{1} ) = 27
