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>

A plane leaves the airport at 9:15pm and travels at a speed of 560km/h. how far will it be at midnight?
lidiya [134]

A plane leaves the airport at 9:15pm and travels at speed 560km/h then at midnight plane will be at 1540 km far away.

As given,

Plane leaves the airport at 9:15 pm

Plane travels at speed of 560 km /h

Total time = 2hour+ 45minutes

               = 2hour+ (45/60)hour

               = (11 /4) hour

We have

1 hour = 560 km

⇒ (11 /4)hour = (560 ×11)/4 km

                     = 1540 km

Therefore, a plane leaves the airport at 9:15pm and travels at  speed 560km/h then at midnight plane will be at 1540 km far away.
