If order matters, then there are 12 ways to do this
If order does not matter, then there are 6 ways to do this
===========================================
We have 4 choices for the first slot and 3 choices for the next (we can't reuse a letter) so that's where 4*3 = 12 comes from
If order doesn't matter, then something like AB is the same as BA. So we are doubly counting each possible combo. To fix this, we divide by 2: 12/2 = 6
To be more formal, you can use nPr and nCr to get 12 and 6 respectively (use n = 4 and r = 2)

Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the Pythagorean theorem:
8² + 6² = x²
64 + 36 = x²
x² = 100
x = 10
Answer:
x=24
y=36
Step-by-step explanation:
x=smaller number
y=larger number
x+12=y x/2=y/3
x/2=(x+12)/3
cross multiply and distribute
3x=2x+24
x=24
24+12=y
y=36
