Okay, so after a break in 8-ball when nothing goes in, the table is still open. Using APA rules are you allowed to hit a solid to combo a stripe? or can you only strike the color of the ball you are about to hit.

Open table means pretty much anything goes. You don't even have to call the shot. So yes, you can do a mixed combo.

Using APA rules, after a break where no ball is pocketed, you can blast the cue ball as hard as you can into any ball but the 8, and if anything goes in (but the 8 of course), it's still your turn.

you can do a combo.
even if you hit a ball in on the break it's still an open table.
that is if you play by the real rules.
not the highschool rules.
