Answer:

A. 1, 287 ways

B. 154,440 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

A. We want to choose 5 objects from a total 13, without considering the order in which they are chosen.

The correct way to do this is by using the combination formula since order is not considered;

Thus we have ; 13 C 5 read as 13 combination 5;

Mathematically, n C r is ; n!/(n-r)!r!

Thus, we have ;

13!/(13-8)!8! = 13!/5!8! = 1,287 ways

B. By considering order, we shall be using the permutation formula;

Mathematically n P r = n!/(n-r)!

Read as n permutation r;

Using the numbers involved, we have ; 13 P 5

= 13!/(13-5)! = 13!/8! = 154,440 ways

timurjin [86]
The multiply choice were worth 4 points. 
Gretchen= 18x+19
Ezia= 15x+31

So basically you can enter any number. At first I picked 3 and then I did the math and I got 73 points for Gretchen and 76 points for Ezia. 

Then I pick four and then I got 91 points for them both. This is how I got the answer: 

18x+19=15x+31
18(4)+19=15(4)+31
72+19=60+31
91=91
