To answer this question, use permutation since the order of the letter matters. There are 7 letters and only 4 are to be used for the code. This is a permutation of 7 taken 4 (7P4) which is equal to 840. Thus, the sample space is 840.
For the next questions, there are 3 vowels for as the first letter, only 6 letters are available for the second, 5 on the next, and 4 on the last. Multiplying these numbers give 360. To solve for probability, divide this number with the sample space. Thus, the answer is 3/7.
Answer:
-1/7 y + 1/7 x
Step-by-step explanation:
Can also be written as
1/7 x - 1/7 y
A = l x w
so you know that the length is 3m longer than the width, so you could use a formula to represent that
w = l + 3
you then substitute the second equation into the first to solve for l
70 = l x (l +3)
70 = l^2 + 3l
you could then rearrange the formula and solve for l using the quadratic formula
0 = l^2 + 3l - 70
l = -3 +- (square root (3)^2 - 4(1)(70)) / 2(1)
l = -3 +- (square root 9 + 280) / 2
l = -3 +- (square root 289) / 2
l = -3 +- 17 / 2
then you solve for the two seperate roots
l = -3 + 17 /2
l = 14 / 2
l = 7
or
l = -3 - 17 / 2
l = -20 / 2
l = -10
since a length cannot be negative, this root is not viable. therefore l = 7
to solve for w you would use
w = l + 3
w = 7 + 3
w = 10
hope this helps! if you did not understand a step or concept please let me know!
