The oldest cousin should be 10. If their ages are consecutive even whole numbers, then the younger cousins should be 2 & 4. 2+4=6+10=16
The first choice can be any one of the 8 side dishes.
For each of these . . .
The 2nd choice can be any one of the remaining 7.
Total number of ways to pick 2 out of 8 = (8 x 7) = 56 ways .
BUT ...
That doesn't mean you can get 56 different sets of 2 side dishes.
For each different pair, there are 2 ways to choose them . . .
(first A then B), and (first B then A). Either way, you wind up with (A and B).
So yes, there are 56 different 'WAYS' to choose 2 out of 8.
But there are only 28 different possible results, and 2 'ways'
to get each result.
Each can of green beans costs ($3.00/5) = 60¢ at the
village market, and ($6.10/10) = 61¢ at Sam's Club.
If you're watching every penny, then that MIGHT be enough
of a difference to make you decide to buy your beans at the
village market, but not necessarily.
If, say, the village market is farther away from you, or if there are
other things you're going to get from Sam's anyway, then you
should buy your beans there too.
We can use the ratios for special triangles (see the attachment below). We'll be using the 45-45-90 triangle. We notice that side BC is equal to

, and side AC (x using the special right triangle) is equal to 16. We can therefore say that side BC is equal to

ft
:)
0=-10
So no value
This is the answer to this question
