Using the permutation formula, it is found that the people can be chosen for the roles in 6840 ways.
The order in which the people are chosen is important, as there are different roles, hence the <em>permutation formula</em> is used.
<h3>What is the permutation formula?</h3>
The number of possible permutations of <u>x elements from a set of n elements</u> is given by:
In this problem, 3 people will be chosen from a set of 20 people, hence the number of ways is given by:

General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
- Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
- Equality Properties
<u>Algebra I</u>
- Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination
- Solving systems of equations by graphing
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define systems</u>
-5x - 3y = 12
y = x - 12
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
<em>Substitution</em>
- Substitute in <em>y</em>: -5x - 3(x - 12) = 12
- Distribute -3: -5x - 3x + 36 = 12
- Combine like terms: -8x + 36 = 12
- Isolate <em>x</em> term: -8x = -24
- Isolate <em>x</em>: x = 3
<u>Step 3: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>
- Define original equation: y = x - 12
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: y = 3 - 12
- Subtract: y = -9
<u>Step 4: Graph systems</u>
<em>Check the solution set.</em>
Answer:
1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
the answer would be 8.
2 times 8 = 16 minus 5 = 11
