You need to find the number of permutations of the 6 different letters, taken 3 at a time.
6P3=\frac{6!}{(6-3)!}=\frac{6\times5\times4\times3\times2\times1}{3\times2\times1}=120
Therefore the sample space is 120 possible outcomes.

If all the letters are different,
Using combinations:

<span>6C3 =6! /3!* (6-3)!
</span>Simplifying,
6C3 = 6x5x4 /1x2x3
       = 120/6
        = 20 ways 
Hence,
The size of the sample space will be 20.

Solve each of the following equations. (2 answers)<br><br> |2x-3|=2
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

x= 5/2 or 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

absolute value always gives us positive

if |u| = 2, u can be -2 or 2

2x-3 = 2

2x = 5

x = 5/2

2x-3 = -2

2x = 1

x= 1/2

in general, set the stuff inside the absolute value to equal both positive and negative of the equivalent value
