A textbook search committee is considering 13 books for possible adoption. The committee has decided to select 3 of the 13 for further consideration. In how many ways can it do so?

11.8 #8

Number of ways in which the 3 can be selected from 13  = 286

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Number of books considered by the textbook search committee = 13

Number of books selected from this 13 = 3

We need to determine number of ways in which the 3 can be selected from the 13

Step 2 :

The order of the 3 books selected does not matter. So,

Number of ways in which the 3 books can be selected from 13 books =  C(13,3) =

                                                                                             =

                                                                                             = = 286

Step 3 :

Answer :

Number of ways in which the 3 can be selected from 13  = 286

step-by-step explanation:

answer: the answer is (b) amie should have multiplied

step-by-step explanation: given a sphere and a cylinder with same radius and height.

let, 'r' be the radius of the cylinder and sphere and 'h' be the height of the cylinder. according to the question,

r = h.

now, the volume of the sphere will be

and the volume of the cylinder will be

therefore, we have

thus, ammie should have multiplied the volume of the sphere
