The total number of combinations without restrictions is

10 * 10 * 10 * 10 * 10 = 100000

Problem A

10 * 9 * 8 * 7 * 6  = 30240

the number of ways the combination can be set up with no repetition.

The probability of such an event is P = 30240 / 100000 = 0.3024

Problem B

The number of ways that can be done with repetition and no zeros is

9 * 9 * 9 * 9 * 9 = 59049

The probability of such an event is

P = 59049 / 100000 = 0.59049

Answer:

A. 0.3204

B. 0.59049

Step-by-step explanation:

Data:

The total number of combinations:

= (10)^{5} = 100 000

A.

The number of ways = 10 * 9 * 8* 7 = 30 240

The probability for an event P taking place = \frac{30 240}{100 000} \\= 0.3 024

B.

Number of ways to arrange the subjects = (9)^{4} = 59 049

The probability = \frac{59 049}{100 000} \\= 0.59049

Answer:

While slavery was the major issue separating the North and South, it was not slavery itself that sparked the conflict. The South wanted to secede from the Union, and the North refused. While President Abraham Lincoln personally opposed slavery, he recognized that it was legal under the U.S. Constitution at the time. He also recognized that few in the North were ready to go to war to free the slaves. For Lincoln and the northern majority, preservation of the Union was the foremost goal.

there are four Defenders on a soccer team that this represents 20% of the players on the team which equation can be used to find
gladu [14]
4=(total players on the team) x 0.2
(total players on the team) = 4/0.2
(total players on the team) = 20
****
20% is the same as 0.2.
2 is 20% of 10.
to find 10, divide 2 by 0.2
2/0.2=10
4 is 20% of something
to find 'something', divide 4 by 0.2
4/0.2=20

How many total terms are there in the following sequence. 7,10,13,...,391,394
nlexa [21]

Answer: n = 130

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence is an Arithmetic progression ( AP )

The last term of the sequence is (L) is 394 with the formula

L  = a + ( n- 1 )d . From the sequence, a = 7, d ( common difference ) = 3 and L ( last term ) = 394, and n = ?

Put those values in the formula above and solve for n.

  a + ( n - 1 )d =  L

  7 + ( n - 1 ) x 3  = 394

         7 + 3n - 3   = 394

             4 + 3n     = 394

                    3n     = 394 - 4

                     3n     = 390

                        n     = 130
