This problem can be solved using the concepts of permutation.
Zzyzx is the word. It has five letters. It asked as to how many five-letter arrangements of the letters in the English alphabet follow Zzyzx alphabetically.
Take note: <span>alphabetically
</span>
The two remaining five-letter after Zzyzx are Zzyzy and Zzyzz.
The remaining arrangements are of the form Zzz _ _.
There are 26 × 26 = 676 ways to fill in the last two letters, so following Zzyzx alphabetically, there are 2 + 676 = 678 arrangements.
2x(-5x-3)
2x(-5x)= -10x and 2x(-3)= -6x
= -10x sq - 6x
-10x is sq bc you are multiplying the same variable twice
-2 (Rise over run) goes up 2 and over 1 and the line is going down
Y= -2x-8
