kondor19780726 [428]

Answer: The number of different combinations of 2 vegetables are possible = 15 .

Step-by-step explanation:

In Mathematics , the number of combinations of selecting r values out of n values = ^nC_r=\dfrac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}

Given : Number of available vegetables = 6

Then, the number of different combinations of 2 vegetables are possible will be :

^6C_2=\dfrac{6!}{2!(6-2)!}=\dfrac{6\times5\times4!}{2\times4!}=15

Hence , the number of different combinations of 2 vegetables are possible = 15 .
