In how many ways can you choose 2 side dishes out of 8

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The first choice can be any one of the 8 side dishes.
               For each of these . . .
The 2nd choice can be any one of the remaining 7.

     Total number of ways to pick 2 out of 8 = (8 x 7) = 56 ways .

BUT ...

That doesn't mean you can get 56 different sets of 2 side dishes.

For each different pair, there are 2 ways to choose them . . .
(first A then B), and (first B then A).  Either way, you wind up with (A and B).

So yes, there are 56 different 'WAYS' to choose 2 out of 8.
But there are only 28 different possible results, and 2 'ways'
to get each result.

A wide screen television display measures approximately 15 inches high and 27 inches wide. A television is advertised by giving the approximate length of the diagonal of its screen. How should the television be advertised?A) 36 in.
B) 31 in.
C) 30 in.
D) 21 in.

Answers

The answer would be 31 in.

First do the Pythagorean theorem. 

225+ 729= 954

Then find the square root of 954 which is 30.88 repeating, so round up to 31 in.
The answer would be B) 31 in.

Is 49 prime or composite

Answers

If it has any other factors besides ' 1 ' and '49',
then it's composite.

7 is a factor of 49.  (In fact, it's two of them.)

So 49 is composite.
Prime because nothing can time to equal it but 1x49.
