Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The number of ways to select a committee of 4 from 10 members is calculated using the combination formula, which is $C(n, k) = \frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}$, where $n$ is the total number of items (in this case, 10 members), and $k$ is the number of items to choose (in this case, 4 members). Plugging in the values, we get $C(10, 4) = \frac{10!}{4!(10-4)!} = \frac{10!}{4!6!} = 210$.
