Respuesta :

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Emily is packaging her bags for her vacation.

She has unique Faberge eggs=6

But eggs fit in her bag=3

We have to find the number of different groups of 3 Faberge eggs can she take.

Combination formula

[tex]nC_r=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}[/tex]

n=6, r=3

Using this formula

[tex]6C_3=\frac{6!}{3!(6-3)!}=\frac{6\times 5\times 4\times 3!}{3!3\times 2\times 1}[/tex]

[tex]6C_3=20[/tex]

Hence, Emily can takes 20  different groups of 3 Faberge eggs .
