How do I do this? 10^C7 1 3,628,800 604,800 120

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Whenever we are given nCx, we can rewrite this as \[\frac{ n! }{ (n-x)!x! }\] In your scenario, we can rewrite 10C7 as \[\frac{ 10! }{ (10-7)!7! } \rightarrow \frac{ 10! }{ 3!7! }\] If you are allowed to use a calculator, you can simply plug in those numbers and the factorial symbols (!) to get your answer.

what are the !?

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

! is the factorial sign

OpenStudy (mckenzieandjesus):

how would i do 7^C4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The factorial means that you multiply the number by each number proceeding it by 1. In other words 3!= (3)(2)(1) 5!=(5)(4)(3)(2)(1) For your second question -- Think about it :) Use the equation I gave you! If you get stuck let me know and I'll direct you further.
