Answer:
90720 ways
Step-by-step explanation:
Since there are 9 letters, there are 9! ways to arrange them. However since there are repeating letters, we have to divide to remove the duplicates accordingly. There are 2 ‘s’ and 2 ‘i’ hence:
Number of way to arrange ‘dissipate’ = 9! / (2! x 2!) = 90720 ways
Hence there are 90720 ways to have the number of dissipate in the letter.
3x - 1 = 26
substitution property of equality
3x = 27
answer
3x = 27
NO the answer would be -1 not -10
