Answer:

(a) The number of 5-letter word that can be formed (without repetition) such that the first letter is K or X is 607,200.

(b) The number of 5-letter word that can be formed (with repetition) such that the first letter is K or X is 913,952.

(c) The number of 5-letter word that can be formed (without repetition) such that the first letter is K or X and the last is J is 24,288.

Explanation:

In this case we need to form a 5 letter word.

(a)

The condition applied is: 1st letter is K or X.

The word will of the form: K _ _ _ _ or X _ _ _ _

There are 2 ways to fill the first space, i.e. with either K or X.

Repetition is not allowed.

The remaining 4 spaces can be filled in (25 × 24 × 23 × 22) ways.

Then the total number of 5-letter word that can be formed (without repetition) such that the first letter is K or X is:

Number of 5-letter word = 2 × 25 × 24 × 23 × 22 = 607200

Thus, the number of 5-letter word that can be formed (without repetition) such that the first letter is K or X is 607,200.

(b)

In case the repetition are allowed the number of 5-letter word that can be formed (without repetition) such that the first letter is K or X is:

Number of 5-letter word = 2 × 26 × 26 × 26 × 26 = 913952

Thus, the number of 5-letter word that can be formed (with repetition) such that the first letter is K or X is 913,952.

(c)

The condition applied is: 1st letter is K or X and the last letter is J.

The word will of the form: K _ _ _ J or X _ _ _ J

There are 2 ways to fill the first space, i.e. with either K or X, and the last with J.

Repetition is not allowed.

The remaining 3 spaces can be filled in (24 × 23 × 22) ways.

Then the total number of 5-letter word that can be formed (without repetition) such that the first letter is K or X and the last is J is:

Number of 5-letter word = 2 × 24 × 23 × 22 = 24288

Thus, the number of 5-letter word that can be formed (without repetition) such that the first letter is K or X and the last is J is 24,288.

Fill in the blanks to compare how<br> Grandpa and Dad see the past.
Hatshy [7]

To compare the points of view of Grandpa and Dad about the past first read the information about them, list the points of view of each person, and finally identify common points and differences through keywords.

<h3>What is to compare?</h3>

A comparison implies identifying both the common points (similarities) and contrasting points (differences) of two or more elements.

<h3>What are the steps to compare Grandpa and Dad's perspectives?</h3>

Even though there is not enough information about who they are or their ideas about the past; here are some basic steps you can follow:

  • Carefully read the information about them: The first step is to read and analyze the information of the source about Grandpa and Dad.
  • Identify the point of view of each person: After reading the information about them, you need to identify what each person thinks about the past.
  • Find similarities and contrasting ideas: Finally, you can compare and contrast the points to view to find out how similar or different they are.

Note: This question is incomplete because there is no information about the perspectives of the people mentioned; due to this, I answered it based on general knowledge.

Has technology made the 4th amendment irrelevant
gogolik [260]

Answer:

No the 4th ammendment has to do with unreasonable seizes and searches for example when police ask if they can come in your house to seach or if they can search your car. The closest thing i can think of to making the 4th amendment irrelevant is when a cop brings a K9 to sniff your car for drugs and if the dog allerts to drugs they are llegaly allowed to search your car.
