How many different ways can a club choose a committee of 4 from 15 members?

1 answer:

5 0

It is done by this formula

combinations = n! / [r! * (n - r)!]

combinations = 15! / [4! * 11!]
combinations = 15 * 14 * 13 * 12 * 11! / [4! * 11!]
combinations = 15 * 14 * 13 * 12 / 4 * 3 * 2
combinations = 15 * 7 * 13
combinations = 1,365

Answer:

3 * 20s

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find out how much Mr. Hartman will spend in total we first need to multiply the price of the keyboard and mouse by the number of computers in a single computer station. Once we have these products we add them together. Finally, we multiply this new value by 3 since there are a total of 3 computer stations. If we turn this into an expression it would be the following...

3 * (13.50s + 6.50s)

We can even simplify this by first adding the cost of the keyboard and mouse and then multiplying by s
