$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{-4}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-8})~\hspace{10em} slope = m\implies -\cfrac{5}{2} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-(-8)=-\cfrac{5}{2}[x-(-4)] \\\\\\ y+8=-\cfrac{5}{2}(x+4)\implies y+8=-\cfrac{5}{2}x-10\implies y=-\cfrac{5}{2}x-18$

Rashid [163]

Answer:

The number of ways to select 37 people from 101 is, 5,397,234,129,638,871,133,346,507,775.

Step-by-step explanation:

In mathematics, the procedure to select k items from n distinct items, without replacement, is known as combinations.

The formula to compute the combinations of k items from n is given by the formula:

${n\choose k}=\frac{n!}{k!\cdot (n-k)!}$

Compute the number of ways to select 37 people from 101 as follows:

${101\choose 37}=\frac{101!}{37!\cdot (101-37)!}$

$=\frac{101!}{37!\times 64!}\\\\=\frac{101\times 100\times 99\times....64!}{37!\times 64!}\\\\=5397234129638871133346507775$

Thus, the number of ways to select 37 people from 101 is, 5,397,234,129,638,871,133,346,507,775.
