    a. 30

    b. 15

    c. 42

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We have two types of hamburgers and six types of extras.

    a.

    To find the number of different burgers with 4 extras, we have a combination of 6 choose 4 to find the number of possibilities for the extras, and we have that amount of possibilities for each of the two types of burger, so we have:

    2 * C (6,4) = 2 * 6! / (4! * 2!) = 2 * 6 * 5 / 2 = 30 different hamburgers.

    b.

    The number of different regular hamburgers is half the number of different burgers found above:

    C (6,4) = 6! / (4! * 2!) = 6 * 5 / 2 = 15 different hamburgers.

    c.

    We want at least 3 extras, so we can have 3, 4, 5 or 6 extras, then we need to calculate combinations of 6 choose 3, 4, 5 and 6:

    3 extras: C (6,3) = 6! / (3! * 3!) = 6 * 5 * 4 / 3 * 2 = 20 different hamburgers.

    4 extras: C (6,4) = 6! / (4! * 2!) = 6 * 5 / 2 = 15 different hamburgers.

    5 extras: C (6,5) = 6! / (5! * 1!) = 6 / 1 = 6 different hamburgers.

    6 extras: C (6,6) = 6! / (6! * 0!) = 1 different hamburger.

    Total: 20 + 15 + 6 + 1 = 42 different regular burgers
