Answer:

5 jump shots.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let l = number of layups and j = number of jump shots

l + 2j = 21

11 + 2j = 21

2j = 10

j = 5

5 jump shots are needed to win the game and not go over 21 points.

aev [14]

Using the combination formula, it is found that Julia can take 15 combinations.

<h3>What is the combination formula?</h3>

C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by:

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

For this problem, 4 students are taken from a set of 6, hence the number of combinations is given as follows:

C_{6,4} = \frac{6!}{4!2!} = 15
