Answer

255

Work Step by Step

$n!=n(n-1)(n-2)\cdot...\cdot 2\cdot 1$ $0!=1$ $\displaystyle \left(\begin{array}{l} n\\ r \end{array}\right)=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}$ ------------------------- $\left(\begin{array}{l} 10\\ 2 \end{array}\right) + \displaystyle \left(\begin{array}{l} 10\\ 6 \end{array}\right)=\frac{10!}{2!8!}+\frac{10!}{6!4!}$ $=\displaystyle \frac{10\cdot 9}{2}+\frac{10\cdot 9\cdot 8\cdot 7}{4\cdot 3\cdot 2}$ $=45+210=255$
