How many ways are there to rearrange the letters ALIVE in such a way that the word EVIL is not contained in the resulting word

Mathematics

Sergio [31]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: 118 combinations.

Step-by-step explanation:

In ALIVE we have 5 letters, rearranging it we have the possible options of:

5 options for the first letter.

4 options for the second letter, as one was already chosen for the first one

3 options for the third letter, as 2 were already chosen.

2 options for the fourth letter.

1 option for the last letter.

The total number of combinations will be equal to the product of the numbers of options for each letter, then we have:

5*4*3*2*1 = 120 combinations.

And the combinations where the word EVIL is formed are:

AEVIL

EVILA

2 combinations, then the total number of combinations such that the word evil is not formed are:

120 - 2 = 118 combinations.

A small square of side 2x is cut from the corner of a rectangle with a width of 10 centimeters and length of 20 centimeters. Wri
love history [14]
Find the area of the rectangle. You can find the area of a rectangle with the following formula:

A = wl

w = width, and l = length.

Plug in your width and length:

20 * 10 = 200

The area of the rectangle is 200 square centimeters.

The area of a square is also given by width * length. Multiply the sides together:

2x * 2x = 4x^{2}

The area of a square is 4x^2.

Because you're cutting away the square from the rectangle, you will subtract the area of the square from the area of the rectangle. The following equation will be your answer:

200 - 4x^{2} cm^{2}

A PS4 costs $399. There is a 20% discount. What is the total cost?
Kruka [31]

Answer:

$319.2

Step-by-step explanation:

If you multiply 399 and 0.2 (because it's 0.2 out of 1) then you get 79.8. So you subtract 79.8 from 299 and get 319.2 dollars. I hope this helps! Please mark brainliest! <3
