There are 21 ways Tim choose 2 books from the 7 recommended book

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that Tim must read 2 books from a list of 7 recommended books for his summer reading program

To find: different ways can Tim choose 2 books from the 7 recommended books

This is a combination problem

A combination is a selection of all or part of a set of objects, without regard to the order in which objects are selected

<em><u>The formula for combinations is:</u></em>

$n C_{r}=\frac{n !}{r !(n-r) !}$

where n represents the number of items, and r represents the number of items being chosen at a time

Here we have to choose 2 books from 7 books

Therefore, n = 7 and r = 2

<em><u>Substituting values in above formula, we get</u></em>

$\begin{aligned}&7 C_{2}=\frac{7 !}{2 !(7-2) !}\\\\&7 C_{2}=\frac{7 !}{2 ! \times 5 !}\end{aligned}$

For a number n, the factorial of n can be written as,

$n !=n \times(n-1) \times(n-2) \dots \dots \times 2 \times 1$

Therefore, we get

$7 C_{2}=\frac{7 \times 6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}{2 \times 1 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}\\\\7C_2 = 7 \times 3 = 21$

Thus there are 21 ways Tim choose 2 books from the 7 recommended book

X+2>7 write the solution set in interval notation

REY [17]

Answer:

(5, infinitysymbol)

Step-by-step explanation:

First solve the inequality. Subtract 2 from both sides.

x + 2 > 7

x > 5

So that is one way of writing the answer and it is hopefully kind of understandable. X>5 means all the numbers greater (bigger) than 5, forever to infinity.

Interval notation is a way of writing a set or group of numbers. Interval notation uses ( ) parenthesis or [ ] square brackets. Then two numbers go inside with a comma in between. The first number is where the set of numbers start and the second number is where the set ends. You always put parenthesis around the infinity symbol or negative infinity symbol. You only use a square bracket if the inequality symbols have the "or equal to" underline under the > or <.

So x > 5 in interval notation is:

(5, infinitysymbol)

This shows that 5 is not included in the solution; and all the numbers forever bigger than five are solutions as well.
