A keypad at the entrance of a building has 10 buttons labeled 0 through 9. What is the probability of a person correctly guessing a 9-digit entry code if they know that no digits repeat?
Answer:
the probability of a person correctly guessing a 9-digit entry code if they know that no digits repeat is 0.1
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that probability= number of required outcomes /number of all possible outcome.
From the given information;
the number of required outcome is guessing a 9-digit = 1 outcome
the number of all possible outcome = ¹⁰C₉ since there are 10 numbers and 9 number are to be selected.
Since there are only 9-digit that opens the lock;
the probability of a person correctly guessing a 9-digit entry code is
P = 0.1

The slope point form is
m is the slope
x1, y1 are the coordinates of a point on the line
The slope of the line is -1
m = -1
point (-5, -4) lies on the line
x1 = -5 and y1 = -4
Let us substitute them in the form above
Remember (-)(-) = (+)
The equation of the line in the slope-point form is y + 4 = -1(x + 5)
