Answer:
A: 18360
Explanation:
The number of ways of combinations to select x people from a group of n people is calculated as
[tex]\text{nCx}=\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]Since we need to form committees with 3 males and 2 females, we need to select 3 people from the 10 males and 2 people from the 18 females, so
[tex]10C3\times18C2=\frac{10!}{3!(10-3)!}\times\frac{18!}{2!(18-2)!}=120\times153=18360[/tex]Therefore, there are 18360 ways to form a committee.
So, the answer is
A: 18360
