Suppose 5 cars start at a car race. In how many ways can the top 3 cars finish the race? The number of different top three finishes possible for this race of 5 cars is .
(Use integers for any number in the expression.)

60 Ways

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 5 cars and have to choose 3 cars to finish the race first.

5 options for 1st car

4 options for 2nd car

3 options for 3rd car

Hope that helps, tell me if further explanation is needed

answer:

it is general formula that is used to write value to its excet position

a11 a12 a13

a21 a22 a23

it is the example of order 2 by 3 matrix in this

a11 means value occur in 1 st row 1st column

a12 means value occurs in 1st row 2nd column

a13 means value occur in 1st row and 3rd column

a21 means value occurs in 2nd row and 1st column

a22 means value occurs in 2nd row and in 2nd column

a23 means value occurs in 2nd row and in 3rd column

there are no answer choices
