Respuesta :

[tex]_5C_3\cdot _4C_2=\dfrac{5!}{3!2!}\cdot\dfrac{4!}{2!2!}=\dfrac{4\cdot5}{2}\cdot\dfrac{3\cdot4}{2}=2\cdot5\cdot3\cdot2=60[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]\large \boxed{\mathrm{A. \ 60}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

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

[tex]5C_3 \times 4C_2[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{5!}{3!(5-3)!} \times \frac{4!}{2!(4-2)!}=10 \times 6 = 60[/tex]
