To determine whether the situation describes the Permutation or Combination.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

1) The junior class selects 3 representatives to the student council.

Since, there is no order.

Then, it is a combination.

2) The swim team must choose a captain and co-captain.

Since there is an order, the swim team must choose.

Then, it is a Permutation.

3) A sandwich made with 3 of the 25 available toppings.

Since there is no order.

Then, it is a combination.

4) A locker has a 5digit code that must be entered to open it.

Since there is an order.

Then, it is a Permutation.
