How many "words" can be written using exactly five A's and no more than three B's (and no other letters)?

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

Replace the CIRCLES by A and the SQUARES by B:

1) A + B = 14 And

2) A - B = 2

Add 1) + 2)

A+B   =14
A-B    = 2
------   ----
2A+0 = 16 then A = 16/2 = 8. If A = 8, then B = 6

So the CIRCLE = 8  and the SQUARE = 6

Write an equation of the circle given its center and radius
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

y =x² + y² + 2y - 35

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle is given by the formula;

(x-a)²+(x-b)² = r²

Where;  (a, b) is the center of the circle and r is the radius

Therefore;

(x-0)² +(y+1) = 6²

x²+ y² +2y + 1= 36

x² + y² + 2y - 35 = 0

Therefore; The equation of the circle is y = x² + y² + 2y - 35

The Greatest Common Factor of the given expression should be that expression that can divide both. First, factor both expression,
           x^4 = (x³)(x)      and x³ = (x³)(1)
Therefore, both can be factored by x³. The answer is the third choice.
