This is a problem of Permutations. We have 3 cases depending on the number of B's. Since no more than three B's can be used we can use either one, two or three B's at a time.

Case 1: Five A's and One B

Total number of letters = 6

Total number of words possible = \frac{6!}{5!*1!}=6

Case 2: Five A's and Two B's

Total number of letters = 7

Total number of words possible = \frac{7!}{5!*2!}=21

Case 3: Five A's and Three B's

Total number of letters = 8

Total number of words possible = \frac{8!}{5!*3!}=56

Total number of possible words will be the sum of all three cases.

Therefore, the total number of words that can be written using exactly five A's and no more than three B's (and no other letters) are 6 + 21 + 56 = 83

Answer:

84

Step-by-step explanation

Case 1: Five A's and One B

Total number of letters = 6

Total number of words possible = 6

Case 2: Five A's and Two B's

Total number of letters = 7

Total number of words possible = 21

Case 3: Five A's and Three B's

Total number of letters = 8

Total number of words possible = 56

Case 4: Five A's and no B's

Total number of letters = 5

Total number of words possible = 1

Total number of possible words will be the sum of all three cases.

Therefore, the total number of words that can be written using exactly five A's and no more than three B's (and no other letters) are 1+6 + 21 + 56 = 84

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

When there is no width, the area is 0m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Expressing the area of a rectangle as a function of its width:

Area of a rectangle = Length * width

Since the area of rectangle is related to the width by the multiplication operatkr. We can conclude from the options given that ; if the value of width = 0 ; the the area of rectangular plot = 0

When x :

Area = Length * width

Area = Length * 0

Area = 0

Area = Length * 0

Aea = 0

Find the values of x and y using the figure below. Round your answer to the nearest integer.
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

x = 11

y = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

5y and (7y - 34) are vertical angles which means they're equal to each other:

5y = 7y - 34

5y - 7y = -34

-2y = -34

y = 17

(8x + 7) and (9x - 4) are also vertical angles:

8x + 7 = 9x - 4

8x - 9x = -4 - 7

-x = -11

x = 11
