Factor out a and subtract.

5a-12a \\ (5-12)a \\ \boxed{-7a}

andriy [413]

Answer:

78,624,000 license plates

Step-by-step explanation:

For each of the 4 numbers, we have the following possibilities:

First number: 10 digits possible

Second number: 9 digits possible (one used)

Third number: 8 digits possible (two used)

Fourth number: 7 digits possible (three used)

For each of the 3 letters, we have the following possibilities:

First letter: 26 digits possible

Second letter: 25 digits possible (one used)

Third letter: 24 digits possible (two used)

The total number of license plates is the product of all these possibilities:

Number of plates = 10 * 9 * 8 * 7 * 26 * 25 * 24 = 78,624,000 license plates
