g) How many words begin with a vowel or end with a vowel?
h)How many words begin with AAB in some order?
i)How many words have no vowels?
j)How many words have exactly one vowel?

Kindly check attached picture

Explanation:

Number of alphabets = 26

Number of vowels = 5

Number of strings in word = 7

A)How many words begin with R and end with T

First and last has been filled, positions left to fill : 7 - 2 = 5

26^5 = 11881376

B) How many words begin with A or B

First letter can begin with either A or B

Position left to fill = 7 - 1 = 6

2 options for first letter

2 × (26^6) = 617831552

C.) How many words begin with A or end with B

26^6 + 26^6 - 26^5 = 605950176

D.) How many words begin with A or B and end with A or B

Last and first positions have been filled either with A or B

Positions left to fill = 7-2 = 5

4 × (26^5) = 47525504

E) How many words begin with A or B or end with A or B?

(2 × 26^6 + 2 × 26^6 - 4 × 26^5) = 1188137600

f) How many words begin with a vowel and end with a vowel?

2^5 = 32

g) How many words begin with a vowel or end with a vowel?

(5×26^6) + (5×26^6) - (10×26^5) = 2970344000

h) How many words begin with AAB in some order?

AAB = 3 letters

Positions left to fill = 7 - 3 = 4

3 × 26^4 = 1,370,928

i) How many words have no vowels?

26 - 5 = 21 ; 21^7 = 1801088541

j) How many words have exactly one vowel

Number of words × number of vowels × (number of alphabets - number of vowels) ^ number of positions left to fill

7 × 5 × (21^6) = 3001814235

yes we can change both the color of the value of a cell as well as background color of a cell at the same time .

as we know that excel sheet consists of columns and rows.

and intersection of column and row is called cell.

we can change color of the cell and background of the cell at the same time.

hence the statement that

can a person change color of the cell and background of the cell at the same time is true.
