Answer:

3003 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

You can basically choose 6 games from 14 games in total. This is essential a combination problem. We want the number of ways to choose 6 things from 14 things. The general formula for combinations is:

nCr=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}

Which tells us the number of ways to choose "r" things from a total of "n" things.

The factorial notation is:

n! = n * (n-1) * (n-2) * ....

Example:  3! = 3 * 2 * 1

Now, we know from the problem,

n = 14

r = 6

So, substituting, we get:

nCr=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}\\14C6=\frac{14!}{6!(14-6)!}\\=\frac{14!}{8!*6!}\\=\frac{14*13*12*11*10*9*8!}{6!*8!}\\=\frac{14*13*12*11*10*9}{6*5*4*3*2*1}\\=3003

You can choose in 3003 ways

Solve the system of equations and choose the correct ordered pair. 2x+4y=16 2x-4y=0
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

(4, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by combining the equations

2x + 2x = 4X

4y - 4y = 0

16 + 0 = 16

4x = 16

x = 4

Now that you have one variable plug it back in to one of the original equations

2(4) + 4y = 16

8 + 4y = 16

4y = 8

y = 2

(4, 2)
