A group of 9 people is going to be formed into committees of 4, 3, and 2 people. How many committees can be formed if no person can serve on more than one committee?

Respuesta :

Answer:

1,260

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\implies C(9,4)*C(5,3)*C(2,2)[/tex]

[tex]\implies 9!/4!(9-4)!*5!/3!(5-3)!*2!/2!(2-2)![/tex]

[tex]\implies 9!/4!5!*5/3!2! *2!0![/tex]

[tex]\implies (9 * 8 * 7 * 6 / 4 * 3 * 2 * 1) * (5 * 4 / 2 * 1) * 1[/tex]

[tex]\implies 1260[/tex]

Therefore, 1,260 committees can be formed.
