Answer:
There are 56 ways to choose 5 from 8 varieties.
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Choosing 5 out of 8
This is a combination problem, given by the formula below:
C(n,r)=?
C(n,r)=C(8,5)
=8!/(5!(8−5)!)
= 56
b) A combination is the number of ways to choose a sample of r elements from a set of n distinct objects where order does not matter and replacements are not allowed. The result of this combination of 5 out of 8 varieties shows that there 56 ways one can choose. The formula is given by 8 factorial divided by (5 factorial by 3 factorial).
