Algebra.Com's Answer #733864 by Boreal(15235)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! There are 6 ways to choose the first digit, 5 the second and 4 the third. There are 120 ways.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Half or 60 will be odd.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "divisible by 5, must end in 5, so 6 ways to choose first and 5 ways to choose the second or 30 ways.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The third term will be the cube of x^3 and will yield x^9.
