Answer:
495 ways
Step-by-step explanation:
We solve this above question busing the combination formula
C(n,r) = nCr
= n!/(n - r)! × r!
We are told in the question that:
A textbook search committee is considering 12 books for possible adoption the committee has decided to select 8 of the 12 for further consideration
C(12, 8)
n = 12
r = 8
12C8 = 12!/8! × (12 - 8)!
= 12!/8! × 4!
= 495 ways
