Answer: 165 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

The process of selection is done by using the combination formula for selection. If given "n" items and we are to choose "r" items from this given "n", the formula to use is denoted by:

nCr. = n! /(n-r)! × r!

Where

n! = n * (n-1) * (n-2)... *3*2*1.

In this case the number of items given = 11

And the number of items to be chosen = 3,

Hence the number of ways to do this = 11C3= 11!/(11-3)! × 3!

=165 ways.

<span>Eugene wants to buy jeans at a store that is giving $10 off everything.
Now, the tav on the jeans is marked 50% off and the original price is $49.98.
Let’s find the total cost if the 50% discount is applied before the $10 discount
Solutions:
=> 49.98 dollars * .50 = 24.99
Subtract this to get the answer:
=> 49.98 – 24.99 = 24.99 dollars, this is now that price of the jeans before 10 dollars discount is applied.</span>

Sav [38]
From the given function, to explain the correct answer I will plot the graph for :
y(t)=-t^2+14t-40
thus the graph will be as shown in the figure:
From the graph we deduce that the correct statement is:
y'(t)=-2t+14=0
thus
t=7
thus
y(7)=0
thus the correct statement is:
