The number of possible combinations is given by

... C(18, 3) = 18!/(3!(18-3)!) = 18·17·16/(3·2·1) = 816 . . . . possible combinations

_____

There are 18 ways to choose the first one; 17 ways to choose the second one, and 16 ways to choose the 3rd one. The same 3 students can be chosen in any of 3! = 6 different orders, so the product 18·17·16 must be divided by 6 to get the number of possible combinations in which order doesn't matter.

Jim was offered a job as a computer programmer making 65K per year. Another company offered Jim a position earning $1,800 a week

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

since second company salary, $93,600, is more than first company yearly salary of $65000

Second company pays more

Step-by-step explanation:

To check what job pays more we have to compare yearly salary of both the company offer.

_________________________________________________

Yearly salary from one company = 65k = 65000

Weekly salary from another company = $1800

there are 52 weeks in a year

to get yearly salary , we need to multiply weekly salary with 52.

Yearly salary from another company = Weekly salary*no of wees in a year

Yearly salary from another company = 52*$1800 = $93,600

since second company salary, $93,600, is more than first company yearly salary of $65000

Second company pays more
