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

A ball is thrown in the air from a ledge. Its height in feet is represented by  f(x) = –16(x^2 – 5x – 6), where x is the number
leonid [27]
I believe your answer is 6 seconds.

Because the height of the ball = -16(x² - 5x - 6), when the height of the ball is 0, which is when it is on the ground, we can set -16(x² - 5x - 6) equal to 0. This also allows us to divide by -16, and then we can solve the equation:

x² - 5x - 6 = 0
(x - 6)(x + 1) = 0

So x = 6 or x = -1, and because a quantity of time cannot be negative, x would have to be 6, which means it takes 6 seconds for the ball to reach 0 feet.

I hope this helps!
