Ok, so let’s take the given phrase.
Eight more than the product of 3 and a number is -13. A translation to numbers looks like this:
3x + 8 = -13
Now, let’s solve for x. We can start the process by subtracting 8 from both sides.
3x = -21
now, we will divide each side by 3 to isolate the variable, thus solving for x.
x = -7
There are 26 letters in the english alphabet, asussuming that they are all upper case, you would multiply 26×6 to find all of the different combinations of numbers.
there are 1000 possible ways to organize the nine individual numbers (000, 001, 002,...,999)
I hope that helps, I am not really sure how you would go on from there, good luck!
