Answer 8

- well i'm sure that 504 is correct - the number of combinations of 2 from 7 is 21 - if the order he picks the paints is important then its 42 but the order does not matter

Answer 10

none are correct

Answer 11

its online schooling one of them is correct

the only way it could be 1008 is if he chooses 2 different colors of paint and then only uses one of them to do the decorating - that would be 2 * 504 = 1008
- thats what i meant when i said the question is a bit confusing

Answer 13
