Title: Statistics Problem, nchoosek problem, Please Help? Post by: DaRucker on Oct 4, 2013 How many different soccer teams of 11 players can you form form a class of 30 students? (Combinations - order does not matter)
nchoosek(30,11) = 54627300 Since each player on a soccer team is assigned a particular role, order does matter. Recalculate the possible number of different soccer teams that can be formed when order is taken into account. factorial(30)/factorial(30-11) = 2.1805e+015 I'm concerned that I'm getting the wrong answer because the answers are so large. Am I solving this problem correctly? Title: Statistics Problem, nchoosek problem, Please Help? Post by: tonyekwelu on Oct 4, 2013 Content hidden
