Answer: 56

To solve this problem, we will use the formula for Combination which goes by


_{}C(n,r)=^nC_r=_nC_r=(n!)/(r!(n-r)!)

From the problem, we know that:

n = 8

r = 3

Since there are a total of 8 different movie soundtracks and we only need 3.

Substituting it on the formula,


C(n,r)=(n!)/(r!(n-r)!)
C(8,3)=(8!)/(3!(8-3)!)
C(8,3)=56

Therefore, there are 56 possible selections of movie soundtracks at the music store.
