A)
First note that the plates can have between 4 and 6 symbols so we will need to find the number of plates with 4 symbols, 5 symbols and 6 symbols. We add these to get the total. In this part repetition of symbols is allowed. Since there are 26 + 10 =36 possible symbols we look at each position on the plate and think of how many choices there are. We multiply the number f choices using the counting principal since the choices are each independent -- one symbol does not affect another. There are 36 choices for the first symbol, 35 for the second and so on. The number of plates is:
4-symbols = (36)(36)(36)(36)=36^4
5 symbols = (36)^5
6 symbols = 36^6
So the total here is: 36^4+36^5+36^6
B) Here we do not repeat symbols so there are 36 choices for the first symbol but only 35 for the next and 34 for the one after and so on.
4-symbols = (36)(35)(34)(33)
5 symbols = (36)(35)(34)(33)(32)
6 symbols = (36)(35)(34)(33)(32)(31)
So the total here is: (36)(35)(34)(33)+(36)(35)(34)(33)(32)+(36)(35)(34)(33)(32)(31)
c)
In order for there to be a repeated symbol we have 36 choices for the first symbol, 36 for the next and so on. However, for the last symbol we have to pick from one of the ones already selected so there are 3, 4 or 5 choices respectively.
4-symbols = (36)(36)(36)(3)
5 symbols = (36)(36)(36)(36)(4)
6 symbols = (36)(36)(36)(36)(36)(5)
So the total here is: (36^3)(3)+(36^4)(4)+(36^5)(5)
D)
The probability is given by (the number of plates with at least one repeated symbol)/(the total number of plates if repetitions are allowed) = (the answer to c) / (the answer to a)
Answer:
An ISOSCELES TRIANGLE
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a triangle ABC with vertices at A(-5, 4), B(4, 1), and C(1, -8), to know the type of triangle this is, we need to find the three sides of the triangles by taking the distance between the points.
Distance between two points is expressed as:
D = √(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²
For side |AB|:
A(-5, 4) and B(4, 1)
|AB| = √(4-(-5))²+(1-4)²
|AB| = √9²+3²
|AB| = √90
For side |BC|
B(4, 1), and C(1, -8)
|BC| =√(1-4)²+(-8-1)²
|BC| = √3²+9²
|BC| = √90
For side |AC|:
A(-5, 4) and C(1, -8).
|AC| = √(1-(-5))²+(-8-4)²
|AC| = √6²+12²
|AC| = √36+144
|AC| = √180
Based on the distances, it is seen that side AB and BC are equal which shows that two sides of the triangle are equal. A triangle that has two of its sides to be equal is known as an ISOSCELES TRIANGLE. Therefore the term that correctly describes the triangle is an isosceles triangle.
Answer:
200, 500, 250, 520, 220 and 550
Step-by-step explanation:
A number is multiple of 10 if the number finish in the digit 0.
So, all three-digit numbers that are multiples of 10 and have the digits 0, 2 and 5 are:
200
500
250
520
220
550
C is the answer you would want to use because (2, -4) is a solution to the equation.
