1575 license plates with at least one three piece palindrome

Step-by-step explanation:

Fon know the number of license plates that have at least one three piece palindrome is necessary to identify the following cases:

There is palindrome in the 3 numbers and not in the 3 letters of the license plate: A three piece palindrome happens when the first and the last number is the same. So we can calculate the number of ways in which this can happen using the rule of multiplication as:

__5__ _*__5___* __1___* __3___ * __3___* __2___ = 450

1st number 2nd 3rd 1st letter 2nd 3rd

The MarioLand number system has 5 digits so the are 5 options for the first and second number, then if we want a palindrome, the 3rd number has to be the same of the first so the 3rd number just have one option.

Additionally, the MarioLand letter system has 3 letters, so we have 3 options for first and second number but we don't want a palindrome in the letters, so the 3rd letter need to be a number different of the first, that means that it has 2 options.

At the same way we calculate the number of possibilities in the following cases:

There is palindrome in the 3 letters and not in the 3 numbers of the license plate: There are 900 different ways that apply for this case, this is calculate as:

__5__ _*__5___* __4___* __3___ * __3___* __1___ = 900

1st number 2nd 3rd 1st letter 2nd 3rd

There is palindrome in the 3 letters and in the 3 numbers of the license plate: There are 225 different ways that apply for this case, this is calculate as:

__5__ _*__5___* __1___* __3___ * __3___* __1___ = 225

1st number 2nd 3rd 1st letter 2nd 3rd

Finally the total number of license plate that can be created with at least one three piece palindrome is the sum of the possibilities of the three cases:

450+900+225=1575

Answer from: Quest

-13

step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=2x-5 for f(-4)

f(-4) means let x=-4

f(-4) = 2(-4) -5

f(-4) =-8-5

= -13

3+11

step-by-step explanation:

from this example, we can see that subtracting with integers is the same as adding the opposite. we can solve using a number line or by using the saying "keep, change, change" to us solve. it is important to remember that we can subtract a negative and end up with a larger number than we started with.
