There are 720 total different combinations, and 24 of those will have the letters DAY consecutively within all those combinations.
<u>Explanation:</u>
FRIDAY is a six letter word.
To form all combinations of letters, we would have six choices of letters to fill the first spot. Whatever letter you choose for the first spot, you then have five choices of letters to fill the second spot. Four choices of letters to fill the third spot. And so on.
So, the total number of different combinations of the six letters would be 6!
6! = 6 X 5 X 4 X 3 X 2 X 1
= 720
DAY could appear consecutively starting in 4 different spots: the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th spots of all combinations. DAY will appear consecutively 6 times in each of those 4 starting spots.
6 X 4 = 24.
So, there are 720 total different combinations, and 24 of those will have the letters DAY consecutively within all those combinations.

To factor x^2 + 2x - 8 follow these steps
1) Write to factors, with x as the first term, this way:
(x )(x )
2) The sign to the right of the x in the first factor is the same sign of the coeficient of x in the polynomial.
That is +.
The sign to the right of the x of the second factor is the product of the sign of the coefficent of x (this is +) and the sign of the independent term (this is - ).
So that is (+).(-) + -.
Now the two factors have this form:
(x + ) (x - )
3) Now find two numbers whose product is - 8 and whose difference is +2
Those numbers are + 4 and -2.
Then the two factors are:
(x + 4) (x - 2).
So the answer if that the correct factorization is (x + 4) (x - 2)
