Funny cause I just did something similar a few minutes ago
We know that
The formula for combinations is
C=n!/[(n-r)!*r!]
where
n is the total number of objects you choose from
r is the number that you choose to arrange
in this problem
n=15 students
r=4 students
C=15!/[(15-4)!*4!]-----> C=15!/[11!*4!]---> (15*14*13*12*11!)/(11!*4*3*2*1)
C=(15*14*13*12)/(24)----->C=1365
the answer is
1365
Answer:
- The submarine's position means the distance it traveled is greater than 24 feet
- A possible position of the submarine is -27 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance is generally a positive number. (Displacement, or position may be negative, as in this case.) If the sub started at 0 feet and went lower than -24 feet, it traveled a distance of more than 24 feet (greater than 24 ft).
Of the numbers listed, the only one lower than -24 is -27.
