    Step-by-step explanation:

    Count the number length of string of lowercase letter. one String has 26 letter.

    26 letters in the lowercase.

    Same as in the next string. So number of length of 5 string is = 26^5

    Lets count the length of string that does not have x then string of lowercase is containing 25 letters.

    25 letters and same is in the next string. So length of 5 string is = 25^5

    Hence

    The string of 5 lowercase letters are with at least one x = 26^5 - 25^5

    = 2115751
