Answer:

when customer have over charge - $6.31

when customer have undercharge - $6.70

Explanation:

Given data:

Charge is $6.50/pound.

Scale is accurate to within \pm 0.03 lb.

therefore,  the weight could be .97 [ 1- 0.03] pounds to 1.03 [1 + 0.03] pounds.

From the information given question we have

The customer is paying $6.50.

if weight is 0.97 lb, the customer paid

\frac{6.50}{0.97} = $6.70 /lb rather than $6.50/ lb.

if weight is  1.03 pounds, the customer paid

\frac{6.50}{1.03} = $6.31/ lb rather than $6.50/lb.

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Someone who legally breaks into a system to assess security deficiencies is a sneaker.

Sneakers are people that lawfully break into systems to inspect their security flaws. Finding out whether a user's credentials are valid to access a network resource is done through auditing. The three foundational elements of the CIA triangle are confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

A sneaker is a knowledgeable computer user whose goal is to circumvent or breach internet security. Crackers and dark-side hackers are other names for them.

It is made up of a network security device that keeps track of and filters incoming and outgoing network traffic in accordance with previously specified security policies for an organization.

They safeguard against unauthorized access, but they do not shield networks from internal breaches.
