a committee is to consist of two members if there are three men and seven women available to serve on the committee (WILL BE REWARDED) DIRECT ANSWER!!!!!!
@tcarroll010
If you have the requirement that one has to be a man and one has to be a woman, then: (# of men) times (# of women) = total number of possible committees. Is that what you are asking?
YES
Ok, good, so just fill in those 2 numbers, multiply them, and you're good to go! @jdag
??????? confused
(3 men) x (7 women) -> 3 x 7 = 21 So, 21
thats not a choice ??
Are you sure that one man and one woman has to be on the committee?
a committee is to consist of two members if there are three men and seven women available to serve on the committee how many differnent commitees can be formed?
It sounds like you can have 2 women or 2 men, which is different than what we talked about, so now: 10 C 2 which is 10 combination 2 (10)(9) / 2 = 45
thanks!
That HAS to be the answer. uw!
