<h3>Answer:   153</h3>

=======================================================

Explanation:

There are 18 ways to pick the first topping and 18-1 = 17 ways to pick the next topping. Picking the same topping again doesn't make much sense (though I suppose it could mean that you just want more of that topping than usual?), so that's why we have the 18 drop to 17 when making that second selection.

If the order of toppings mattered, then we'd have 18*17 = 306 permutations. However, the order of toppings doesn't matter. All that matters is the group rather than the individual toppings. When counting out the 306 permutations, we've overcounted by a factor of 2. In other words, we've double counted.  

So we must divide by 2 to fix this double count. That leads to 306/2 = 153 combinations

------------------------

The alternative method involves using the nCr combination formula

Use n = 18 and r = 2 in this formula

_n C _r = \frac{n!}{r!*(n-r)!}

the exclamation marks indicate factorial.

Paul [167]
To mix cleaner and water you need to divide the bucket's capacity into 4.It's easy in this case as gallon is divided into quarts (1 gallon = 4 quarts).We know that one part will be cleaner, it means that you will need to use 1 quart of the cleaner.  
hope thats right

Rotation 90 degrees counterclockwise about the origin​
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

  • Point W = (-3, 3)
  • Point X = (-3, 2)
  • Point V = (-2, 3)

<em>The rotation rule states that rotation 90° counterclockwise means (x, y) = (-y, x)</em>

<u>The new points would be equal to:</u>

  • Point W' = (-3, -3)
  • Point X' = (-2, -3)
  • Point V' = (-3, -2)

Try graphing it to see if the new points make sense<em>(because I'm not too sure :\)</em>

Handles-n-Things is a small enterprise company buying new carpet for their office room. The room is 15 ft. wide and 24 ft. long.
elena55 [62]
You find this by finding the number of yards in 15 feet (15÷3) and that number of yards in 24 feet (24÷3) and multiplying them together. 5X8=40sq yards.
