Respuesta :

(a) We need to find the number of combinations of selecting 3 courses of a group of 5 courses.

The number of combinations of n things chosen r at a time is found using:

[tex]_nC_r=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}[/tex]

Substituting with n = 5 and r = 3, we get:

[tex]_nC_r=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}=\frac{5!}{3!(5-3)!}=\frac{5\cdot4\cdot3!}{3!2!}=\frac{5\cdot4}{2\cdot1}=10[/tex]

The 10 possible combinations are:

• 669, 644, 679

,

• 669, 634, 644

,

• 669, 679, 656

,

• 669, 634, 656

,

• 634, 644, 679

,

• 634, 644, 656

,

• 669, 644, 656

,

• 634, 679, 656

,

• 669, 634, 679

,

• 644, 679, 656

(b) There is a 1 in 10 chance that these courses will be selected
