The answer is 1/2. The answer is 1/2 because for every number following the first, the value is multiplied by 1/2 (or divided by 2) to get half of the first number.

N76 [4]

Answer:

26,000,000 codes

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many unique codes can be created, we just need to check how many possibilities there are for each letter or digit in the code.

Each letter has 26 possible values, and each digit has 10 possible values, so as we have 1 letter and 6 digits, the total number of unique codes are:

26 * 10 * 10 * 10 * 10 * 10 * 10 = 26,000,000 codes.

small cubes with edge lengths of 1/4 inch will be packed into the right rectangular prism shown.( the base is 4 1/2, the width i

ss7ja [257]

General Idea:

We need to find the volume of the small cube given the side length of the small cube as 1/4 inch.

Also we need to find the volume of the right rectangular prism with the given dimension (the height is 4 1/2, the width is 5, and the length is 3 3/4).

To find the number of small cubes that are needed to completely fill the right rectangular prism, we need to divide volume of right rectangular prism by volume of each small cube.

Formula Used:

$Volume \; of \; Cube = a^3 \; \\\{where \; a \; is \; side \; length \; of \; cube\}\\\\Volume \; of \; Right \; Rectangular \; Prism=L \times W \times H\\\{Where \; L \; is \; Length, \; W \; is \; Width, \;and \; H \; is \; Height\}$

Applying the concept:

Volume of Small Cube:

$V_{cube}= (\frac{1}{4} )^3= \frac{1}{64} \; in^3\\\\V_{Prism}= 3 \frac{3}{4} \times 5 \times 4 \frac{1}{2} = \frac{15}{4} \times \frac{5}{1} \times \frac{9}{2} = \frac{675}{8} \\\\Number \; of \; small \; cubes= \frac{V_{Prism}}{V_{Cube}} = \frac{675}{8} \div \frac{1}{64} \\\\Flip \; the \; second \; fraction\; and \; multiply \; with \; the \; first \; fraction\\\\Number \; of \; small \; cubes \;= \frac{675}{8} \times \frac{64}{1} = 5400$

Conclusion:

The number of small cubes with side length as 1/4 inches that are needed to completely fill the right rectangular prism whose height is 4 1/2 inches, width is 5 inches, and length is 3 3/4 inches is <em><u>5400 </u></em>
