shepuryov [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

we have a 51 in sandwich

let a piece be x

we have x= shorter piece

another piece is x+6

another piece (x+6)-9=x-3

x+x+6+x-3=51

3x=51-3

3x=48

x=48/3=16

x=16, longer piece is 16+6=22, shorter piece =10

Anita plans to give her husband 3 shirts for his birthday. She narrows the search to 3 shirts from a selection of 17 shirts at D
Lunna [17]

Using the combination formula, it is found that she can select the shirts in 775,200 ways.

The order in which the shirt are chosen is not important, hence, the <em>combination formula</em> is used to solve this question.

Combination formula:

C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by:

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

In this problem:

  • 3 shirts from a set of 17.
  • Then, 3 shirts from a set of 20.
  • They are independent, hence, to find the total, we multiply both combinations.

T = C_{17,3} \times C_{20,3} = \frac{17!}{3!14!} \times \frac{20!}{3!17!} = 680 \times 1140 = 775200

She can select the shirts in 775,200 ways.
