How many different seven-letter sequences can be formed from the letters a, a, a, a, a, b, c?

If b is in the first position then c can be in any 1 of the remaining 6 positions.

If we start with ab then the letter c can be in any one of 5 positions and  if we have aab there are 4 possible positions for c and so on.

So the total number of possible sequences where b comes first = 6+5+4+3+2+1 =  21.

The same argument applies when c comes before b  so that gives us 21 ways also.

So the answer is 2 *21 = 42 different sequences.

A more direct way of doing  this  is to use factorials:-

answer = 7! / 5!     =  7 * 6 = 42.

 ( We divide by 5!   because of the 5 a's.)

Find 2x2 − 2z4 + y2 − x2 + z4 if x = −4, y = 3, and z = 2 can you help me
Natali [406]
Alright, so plugging it in, we get 2(-4)^2=2(2)^4+3^2-(-4)^2+2^4. Use PEMDAS with parenthesis and exponents to then get (2)(16)+9-16+16. Multiplying 1 and 16,  we get 32+41-16+16=73

so uh i have a question about STEAM the app ik this is a math website but uh my question is lets say your playing roblox or mine
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, steam isn't a math website.

On discord, it doesn't show steam specifically, but if you're playing a game THROUGH steam then yes, it will show.

To hide this, go to options -> game activity -> and disable "Display currently running game as a status message" on discord.

If you want to hide your status on steam, just put your status to invisible :)
