A computer is used to generate passwords made up of numbers 0 through 9 and lowercase letters. The computer generates 400 passwo

rds one character at a time.
A uniform probability model is used to predict the first character in the password.

What is the prediction for the number of passwords in which the first character is a vowel?

Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

The prediction for the number of passwords in which the first character is a vowel is 56 passwords.

<h3>How to find that a given condition can be modelled by binomial distribution?</h3>

Binomial distributions consist of n independent Bernoulli trials.

Bernoulli trials are those trials which end up randomly either on success (with probability p) or on failures( with probability 1- p = q (say))

Suppose we have random variable X pertaining to a binomial distribution with parameters n and p, then it is written as

X \sim B(n,p)

The probability that out of n trials, there'd be x successes is given by

P(X =x) = \: ^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}

The expected value and variance of X are:

E(X) = np\\

Given that the characters that can be used are numbers 0 through 9 and lowercase letters. Therefore, a total of 36 different characters are available.

Since we need to know the passwords made with vowels, therefore, the probability of a password in which the first character will be a, e, i, o, u is (5/36).

Now as the computer produces 400 passwords, therefore, the predicted value can be written as,

E = np = 400 \times \dfrac{5}{36} = 55.5556 \approx 56

Hence, the prediction for the number of passwords in which the first character is a vowel is 56 passwords.

The volume of a cube is given by s9 and the total surface area of a cube is given by 632, where s is the side length of the cube
Mariana [72]

Answer:

Surface area of a cube = side * side * 6

632 = side * side * 6

side^2 = 632/6

side^2 = 105.3333333333

side = 10.2632028789

********************************************

For a 5 inch side

volume = 5 * 5 * 5

= 125 cubic inches

surface area = 5 * 5 * 6

surface area = 150 square inches

The area of a playground is 20 square yards. The length of the playground is 5 times longer than its width. Find the length and
jok3333 [9.3K]
The answer is <span>length = 10 yd, width = 2 yd
proof 
</span><span>The length of the playground is 5 times longer than its width, it means
l=5w, but 10= 2x5 so we can write l= 5w, 
and Area = 20 =l x w = (5x2) x 2 =20</span>

At a hardware store a bag holds up to 1 pound of nails. Each penny nail (x) weighs 0.05 pounds and each wood nail (y) weighs 0.1
posledela
For this answer, you multiply the weight of each penny nail by x and the weight of each wood nail by y.  If the bag holds one pound of nails, you would use the inequality ≤.
