How many distinct triangles can be drawn using three of the dots below as vertices?

In this exercise we must observe the image given in the exercise and recognize how many triangles it has:

18 triangles

Then using the knowledge of combination we can calculate that there will be:

However, 2 of these combinations are lines, not triangles. So:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 6 dots.  The number of ways we can select 3 from 6 is:

₆C₃ = 6! / (3! (6−3)!)

₆C₃ = 6! / (3! 3!)

₆C₃ = 6×5×4 / (3×2×1)

₆C₃ = 20

However, 2 of these combinations are lines, not triangles.

So there are 18 possible distinct triangles.

to determine the unit cost your would divide the total cost by the number sold.

7 bagels for $4.41       $4.41/7 = $.63 each at fresh side

5 bagels for $3.60         $3.60/5 = $.72 each at value mart
