We want to choose 4 people and we have 6 people to choose from. This is a combination of 6, 4 by 4. Also called <em>six choose four</em>.

The following formula:

_rC_n=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}

Is the combination of r objects choosen from a total of n. It's n choose r.

For our problem, we just need to compute the following:

_4C_6=\frac{6!}{4!(6-4)!}=\frac{6\times5\times4!}{4!2!} =\frac{6\times5}{2\times1} =15

Thus

\boxed{_4C_6=15}

Therefore the answer is 15 different combinations

Q = {1.7, 1.1, 1.4, 2.1, 2.3, s}. What is the absolute difference between the greatest and least possible values of the median o
Daniel [21]

Answer:

Absolute difference between the medians = 0.35

Step-by-step explanation:

After arranging Q in ascending order excluding s, we get

Q = {1.1, 1.4, 1.7, 2.1, 2.3}

Here, the median is 1.7 ( The middlemost value is the required median.)

Now, if s < 1.7,

Q= {1.1, s, 1.4, 1.7, 2.1, 2.3}

Now for the least value, median = 1.55

If s > 1.7,

Q = {1.1, 1.4, 1.7, 2.1, s, 2.3}

Now for the greatest value, median = 1.9

Absolute difference between the medians = |1.9 -1.55|

                                                                          = 0.35
