The astronomer has to choose 3 star images out of 8.This is a problem of combinations. This can be expressed as 8C3 i.e. combination of 8 objects taken 3 at a time.

8C3= \frac{8!}{3!*5!}=56

This means, if 8 images are nearby the astronomer will have 56 choices <span>of the three stars.</span>

3 over 4 open parentheses 1 half x space minus space 12 close parentheses space plus space 4 over 5
lesantik [10]

For this case we have the following expression:

\frac {3} {4} (\frac {1} {2} x-12) + \frac {4} {5}

Rewriting the expression we have:

We apply distributive property to the terms of parentheses:

\frac {3} {8} x- \frac {36} {4} + \frac {4} {5}\\\frac {3} {8} x-9 + \frac {4} {5}\\\frac {3} {8} x- \frac {41} {5}\\

Answer:

\frac {3} {8} x- \frac {41} {5}
