Probability project question I am stuck on

Question

1. A driver comes to pick up members of your family (listed in your table) to attend a musical. Everyone plans to attend. The van holds 8 people, not including the driver. Assume that the babies and children in your family will be riding in this first trip to the musical and that all children under 5 years old will need to sit next to a female while riding in the van. How many ways can 8 people be chosen to ride in the van?

Answer 1

The answer depends on the family table. First identify the people who must ride on the first trip (babies and children), then choose the remaining passengers from the eligible family members while ensuring each child under 5 sits next to a female. Use combinations to count the valid groups of 8.
