Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Using quadratic formula

we will have two solutions.
2x^2 - x - 4 = 0
So, a=2 b=-1 c=-4, we have:

Finally, we have two solutions:

We need to convert given value 465^8 as the base 5 number.
Let us assume x is the exponent of 5 when we take base 5.
We can setup an equation now.
5^x=465^8
Taking ln on both sides, we get





On simplifying, we get

Therefore,
.
2(x+x) would be your best bet
The correct answer is A which is obtuse
The first digit of the password can be any of the ten digits - 10 possibilities.
A digit cannot be repeated, so the second digit can be any digit except the one you chose for the first digit - 9 possibilities.
The third digit can be any digit except the digits you chose for the first and second digit - 8 possibilities.
Using the rule of product:

There are 720 passwords.
