The number of possibilities for constructing the 4 characters long password with specified conditions is given by: Option C: 703,040

<h3>What is the rule of product in combinatorics?</h3>

If a work A can be done in p ways, and another work B can be done in q ways, then both A and B can be done in p \times q ways.

Remember that this count doesn't differentiate between order of doing A first or B first then doing other work after the first work.

Thus, doing A then B is considered same as doing B then A

We're specified that:

  • The password needs to be 4 characters long
  • It must have 3 letters and 1 of 10 special characters.
  • Repetition is allowed.

So, each of 3 characters get 26 ways of being 1 letter. (assuming no difference is there between upper case letter and lower case letter).

And that 1 remaining character get 10 ways of being a special character.

So, by product rule, this choice (without ordering) can be done in:

26 \times 26 \times 26 \times 10 = 175760 ways.

Now, the password may look like one of those:

  1. L, L, L, S
  2. L, L, S, L
  3. L, S, L, L
  4. S, L, L, L

where S shows presence of special character and L shows presence of letter.

Those 175760 ways are available for each of those four ways.

Thus, resultant number of ways this can be done is:

175760 \times 4 = 703040

Thus, the number of possibilities for constructing the 4 characters long password with specified conditions is given by: Option C: 703,040

Points M and N are both on ZB with M between Z and N. ZM = 10
maxonik [38]

Answer:

Your answer is 40%

Step-by-step explanation:

It is 20 units between Z and B.

We add 2 more points, and one of them is at the the halfway point of the entire line.(M)

One of them is only 2 units away from B.(N)

That means our line is halved, so from 20/20 possible places a point could go and land in the right area is now 10/20.

Minus 2 from that; to take into count of the N to B, and you have 8/20

8/20 is just 40%

Solve S=2(lw + lh + wh) for w
vovikov84 [41]
Dividing by 2, we have S/2=lw+lh+wh. After that, we subtract lh from both sides to get S/2-lh=lw+wh. Next, we divide both sides by w to get (S/2)/w=l+h. Next, we divide by S/2 to get 1/w=(l+h)/(S/2). Lastly, we multiply by w and divide by (l+h)/(S/2)  to get w=(S/2)/(l+h)

Is y = 3/2x +5/4 and -2x+8y=-25 a solution
nekit [7.7K]

Answer: x=-35/10

              y=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3/2x +5/4

-2x+8y=-25

--------------------

replace y in second equation with: y = 3/2x +5/4

-2x+8(3/2x+5/4)= -25

-2x+12x+10= -25

10x=-35

x=-35/10

x=-3.5

7+8y= -25

8y=-32

y=-4
