Answer:

S = 5,850,000 possible plates

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 26 letters in the abcedary and 10 possible digits

Then we know that the first 2 letters must be different and that the first digit must not be zero.

So we know that for the first letter there are 26 possibilities

For the second letter there are 25 possibilities, because it should not be equal to the first

For the first digit there are 9 possibilities (because it must be non-zero)

For the 3 following digits there are 10 possibilities for each one.

Then the sample space is composed of the product of the possible values for each term of the plate.

S = 26 * 25 * 9 * 10 * 10 * 10

S = 5,850,000 possible plates

Answer:

2,948,400

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>For the first letter</u>, there are possibility of putting 26 different letter from the alphabet.

<u>For the second letter,</u> there are possibility of putting 25 different letters from the alphabet (since repetition is not allowed from first digit)

Now,

<u>For first digit</u>, there is possibility of 9 digits, since 0 is NOT ALLOWED.

<u>For second digit,</u> there is possibility of 9 digits, since 0 IS ALLOWED BUT repetition of first digit is not allowed.

<u>For third digit,</u> there is possibility of 8 digits, since 2 are taken in first 2 slots and repetition is not allowed.

<u>For fourth digit,</u> there is possibility of 7 digits, since 3 are taken in first 3 slots and repetition is not allowed.

<em><u>Now we multiply all the possibilities to get the number of license plates possible.</u></em>

26 * 25 * 9 * 9 * 8 * 7 = 2,948,400

The route that Verlonda takes from her house to a store is represented on the grid below. Which ordered pair represents a point
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

(3.8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for grid

Required

Which point is on Veronica's path

On the attached grid, I plotted each of the coordinate pair (i.e the given options, A to D) on the grid.

By observation. we can see that:

A is on the vertical line (y intercept)

B is on the second quadrant

C is just few points to the left of the given path

D represents Verlonda's house

<em>Hence, the required coordinate pair is: (3.8)</em>

sally is on a scavenger hunt. a clue tells her to walk 100 steps due south from the starting point and then walk west when she g
Sophie [7]

Answer:

She should take 112 steps west  

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain the relation between the four directions

- North and South on the same line by in opposite directions

- East and West on the same line by in opposite directions

- East and West are perpendicular to the North and South

* Now lets study the situation i the problem

- Sally 100 steps due to South from the starting point

- Then she walk West when she gets the next clue

- The distance between her starting point and ending point is 150 steps

∵ The South is perpendicular to the West

- Lets consider her trip is a right angle triangle ABC, where AB

 her steps South and BC her steps West and AC the distance

 between her starting point and ending point

∵ AB = 100

∵ AC = 150

∵ m∠B = 90°

- By using Pythagoras theorem

∵ BC = √(AC² - AB²)

∴ BC = √(150² - 100²) = 50√5 = 111.8 steps

* She should take 112 steps west

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

  1. So you know that the height that is visible above x=0 is 74.98 m
  2. From x=0 below it has a total height of 518.16m to the sea floor

That tells us that we have two parts account for

  1. 74.98+518.16m = 593.14 m

What angle do the minute and hour hands make at 4:30??
seraphim [82]

Answer:

45°

Step-by-step explanation:

The hour hand makes a trip of 360° around the face of the clock in 12 hours, so in 4.5 hours will make an angle of ...

... (4.5/12)·360° = 135°

clockwise from straight up.

The minute hand makes that 360° turn in 1 hour, so in 30 minutes, it will be 180° clockwise from straight up.

The difference between the angles of the hands is ...

... 180° -135° = 45°
