There are 720 ways of codes are possible.

Explanation:

Given that the code consists of 3 digits, none of which is repeated.

We need to determine the codes that are possible.

The possible ways of codes can be determined using the permutation formula,

^{n} P_{r}=\frac{n !}{(n-r) !}

where n is the number of choices and r is the number chosen.

Hence, substituting n=10 and r=3, we have,

^{10} P_{3}=\frac{10 !}{(10-3) !}

Simplifying, we get,

^{10} P_{3}=\frac{10 !}{7 !}

       =\frac{10 \times 9\times8\times7!}{7 !}

Cancelling the common terms, we get,

^{10} P_{3}=10\times9\times8

Multiplying, we get,

^{10} P_{3}=720

Thus, there are 720 ways of codes are possible.

A rectangular billboard is 30 feet by 18 feet. If a gallon of paint covers 250 square feet, how many gallons should be purchased
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

C. 3 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

30 ft × 18 ft = 540 ft²

540 ft² ÷ 250 = 2.16

2.16 is not an option so you would have to buy 3 gallons and only use 2.16 gallons.

How many gallons of pure alcohol should be added to 40 gallons of a 20% solution so
Rudik [331]

Answer:

8/3

Step-by-step explanation:

i put equations as this:

x+40 = y

where x is galllons of pure mixture and y is the gallons of the new mixture

the other equation i id was:

x+0.2(40) = 0.25y

x+8 = 0.25y

y = 4x+32

solve using substitution

(x+40) = 4x+32

x = 4x-8

-3x = -8

x = 8/3
