The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of selecting 4 shoes from 10 pairs such that exactly one correct pair is selected, we can break down the solution into clear steps. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Select the Correct Pair:** We need to select exactly one correct pair of shoes from the 10 pairs available. The number of ways to choose 1 correct pair from 10 pairs is given by: \[ \binom{10}{1} \] 2. **Select Remaining Shoes:** After selecting one correct pair, we have 9 pairs left. From these 9 pairs, we need to select 2 shoes such that they do not form a correct pair. This means we need to select shoes from 2 different pairs. 3. **Choosing 2 Pairs from 9:** The number of ways to choose 2 pairs from the remaining 9 pairs is given by: \[ \binom{9}{2} \] 4. **Selecting Shoes from the Chosen Pairs:** For each of the 2 pairs selected, we can choose either the left shoe or the right shoe. Therefore, for each of the 2 pairs, we have 2 choices (left or right). Thus, the total number of ways to select the shoes from these 2 pairs is: \[ 2 \times 2 = 2^2 \] 5. **Combining All Choices:** Now, we can combine all the choices made in the previous steps to find the total number of ways to select the shoes. The total number of ways is given by: \[ \text{Total Ways} = \binom{10}{1} \times \binom{9}{2} \times 2^2 \] ### Final Calculation: Putting it all together, we have: \[ \text{Total Ways} = \binom{10}{1} \times \binom{9}{2} \times 2^2 \] ### Conclusion: Thus, the number of ways of selecting 4 shoes from 10 pairs such that exactly one correct pair is selected is: \[ \binom{10}{1} \times \binom{9}{2} \times 2^2 \] This matches option (A) from the given choices.
