Answer:

a) There are 3,628,800 different strings.

b) There are 28,800 different strings if the letters ad digits must alternate.

c)There are 86,400 different string if all five letters must be adjacent in each string.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 10 digits.

Our strings have the following format:

C1 - C2 - C3 - C4 - C5 - C6 - C7 - C8 - C9 - C10

repitition of letters is not allowed.

a) How many different strings are there?

C1 can be any of the 10, C2 can be 9, C3 can be 8, ...

So in total there are:

T = 10*9*8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1 = 3,628,800

There are 3,628,800 different strings.

b) How many different strings are there if the letters, i.e. A, E, I, O, U and the digits, i.e. 1,3, 5, 7, 9 must alternate?

There are the following possiblities:

5(l) - 5(d) - 4(l) - (4d) - ...

Or

5(d) - 5(l) - 4(d) - 4(l) - ...

So:

T = 2*(5*5*4*4*3*3*2*2*1*1) = 28,800

There are 28,800 different strings if the letters ad digits must alternate.

c) How many different strings are there if all five letters must be adjacent in each string?

L - L - L - L - L - D - D - D - D - D

D - L - L - L - L - L - D - D - D - D

D - D - L - L - L - L - L - D - D - D

D - D - D - L - L - L - L - L - D - D

D - D - D - D - L - L - L - L - L - D

D - D - D - D - D - L - L - L - L - L

There are T = 6*(5*5*4*4*3*3*2*2*1*1) = 86,400

There are 86,400 different string if all five letters must be adjacent in each string.

Answer:

f(x) -> 2 as x -> -∞ and f(x) -> ∞ as x -> ∞

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) -> 2 as x -> -∞ and f(x) -> ∞ as x -> ∞

*this is because the graph shows that the y value cannot pass by 2 as the x value constantly decreases and as x is increasing, there is just an arrow showing that the graph is constantly going up and therefore going to ∞
