Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Each package has 12 pencils

total number of pencils Sarah purchased: n = 12p

n = total number of pencils

p = number of packages

n depends on p, because the total number of pencils dependos on how many packages she will buy, so:

independent variable: p

dependent variable: n

Jollibee employs a total of 10 cashiers and 15 kitchen crews. The manager selects a team of 2 cashiers and
Airida [17]

Answer:

The manager can select a team in 61425 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

The order in which the cashiers and the kitchen crews are selected is not important. So we use the combinations formula to solve this question.

Combinations formula:

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

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

In how many ways can the manager select a team?

2 cashiers from a set of 10.

4 kitchen crews from a set of 15. So

T = C_{10,2}*C_{15,4} = \frac{10!}{2!(10-2)!}*\frac{15!}{4!(15-4)!} = 45*1365 = 61425

The manager can select a team in 61425 ways.
