A computer password consists of six characters.a. How many different passwords are possible if each character may be any lowerca

se letter or digit, and at least one character must be a digit? Please enter your result in scientific notation, making sure the answer in the left box is between 1 and 10.b. A computer system requires that passwords contain at least one digit. If six characters are generated at random, and each is equally likely to be any of the 26 letters or 10 digits, what is the probability that a valid password will be generated?

Answer:

a) 6.04661760*10^8

b) 0.27778

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

There are 26 lowercase letters and 10 digits.  

The character that must be a digit can be generated in 10 different ways and the others, in 26+10=36 different ways.

Since the password is 6 characters long, by the Fundamental Rule of Counting there are

10*36*36*36*36*36 = 604,661,760

In scientific notation this number can be expressed as

6.04661760*10^8

b)

By the <em>Fundamental Rule of Counting</em>, there would be  

36^6

different combinations of 6 characters, but only the number computed in a) are valid combinations, so the probability of generating a valid password is

\displaystyle\frac{10*36^5}{36^6}=\displaystyle\frac{10}{36}=0.27778

Solve r/6=18<br><br> a 24<br><br> b 3<br><br> c 108 <br><br> d 12
Advocard [28]
Answer:
c 108

Explanation:
r/6=18
Multiply both sides by 6 to cancel it out on the left side
6r/6=18*6
r=18*6
r=108

I hope this helps!

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the surface area of the object by adding the surface areas of each part. We have many rectangle faces to count and two triangular faces. Each has a formula for the area. We will find the area of each and then add them all together.

Triangle - 0.5 *b*h

Rectangle - b*h

<u>Triangles</u>

There are two triangles on either side. The height is 1.5. The base is 1.8.

0.5(1.5)(1.8)=1.35 meters squared

Since there are two, we will add 1.35+1.35 in our final calculation.

<u>Rectangles</u>

We will start by calculating the largest rectangle on the side. It has height of 4 and a base of 2.5 (shown above left).

4(2.5)=10

Since there are two (one we can see and one we can't), we will add 10+10 in our final calculation.

Next we calculate the top and bottom. The height is 3 and the base is 2.5 on top. But the bottom sticks out more and adds 1.8 to its base.

Top - 3(2.5)=7.5

Bottom-3(2.5+1.8)=12.9

Finally, we will calculate the front side and back(not visible) as well as the slant up front. The back side has height 4 and base 3. The front side has base 3 and height 4-1.5=2.5. The slant has base 2.3 and height 3.

Back - 4(3)=12

Front- 3(2.5)=7.5

Slant - 3(2.3)=6.9

We add all together for the total surface area: 1.35+1.35+10+10+7.5+12.9+12+7.5+6.9=69.5 meters squared.

Evan said that the difference between two negative numbers must be negative. Was he right? Use examples to illustrate your answe
vladimir1956 [14]
Yes he is right because if u have


-6 -(-4) u would multiply the 2 signs the - and the -4 and u would get +4

then ur equation becomes -6+4 = -2
