a)
no. of ways to form 4-letter words if no condition = 7 * 7 * 7 * 7 = 2401
because, at each place any one of 7 can be used.
b)
no. of ways to form 4-letter words without repetition = 7P4 = 840
c)
no. of ways to form 4-letter words begin with A = 7 * 7* 7 = 343
because, at each of remaining 3 places any one of 7 can be used.
d)
similarly as previous part, no. of ways = 343
e)
here 2 vowels, A and E.
no. of words when A is on second place = 343 (as previous part)
no. of words when E is on second place = 343
total no. of ways = 2 * 343 = 686
