A password has to use the following format: LDDDDLLL, where L can be any of the upper case letters in the alphabet, and D can be

any digit including 0. None of the digits or letters can repeat. What is the probability that a random password uses only vowels (A,E,I,O,U) and odd numbers (1,3,5,7,9)? Show work but do not evaluate. What is the probability that the password spells the word “MATH?”

Answer:

Only vowels and odd numbers:

P = \frac{5}{26} *\frac{4}{25}* \frac{3}{24}* \frac{2}{23} *\frac{5}{10}* \frac{4}{9} *\frac{3}{8} *\frac{2}{7}

Spells math:

P = \frac{1}{26} *\frac{1}{25}* \frac{1}{24}* \frac{1}{23}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have four letters, so the probability that one letter is a vowel is 5/26 (we have 5 vowels in a total of 26 letters), then the second letter has a probability of 4/25 of being a vowel (1 vowel used), and so on (third letter being vowel = 3/24 and fourth letter being vowel = 2/23)

Then, for the digits, we do the same, one digits has 5/10 probability of being odd, then the second digit has 4/9, the third has 3/8 and the fourth has 2/7.

So the final probability would be:

P = \frac{5}{26} *\frac{4}{25}* \frac{3}{24}* \frac{2}{23} *\frac{5}{10}* \frac{4}{9} *\frac{3}{8} *\frac{2}{7}

To find the probability that the password spells the word “MATH", each letter has to be a specific letter, so the first letter has 1/26 probability, the second has 1/25, and so on:

P = \frac{1}{26} *\frac{1}{25}* \frac{1}{24}* \frac{1}{23}

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS PROBLEM​
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

V ≈ 2011 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume (V) of a cylinder is calculated as

V = area of base × perpendicular height

V = πr²h ( r is the radius and h the height )

Here r = 8 and h = 10, thus

V = π × 8² × 10

  = π × 64 × 10 = 640π ≈ 2011 cm³ ( to nearest whole number )

Please help Explanation will be appreciated thanks,

Answer: A; 6.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

Problem 1

For the first problem, we first want to find y so that we can plug it into the expression.

We can use elimination method for the system of equations to solve.

3x+3y=21

3x-y=5

We subtract both equations to eliminate x.

4y=16                                        [divide both sides by 4]

y=4

Now that we know y, we can plug it into the expression.

\frac{4}{2} -3                                         [divide]

2-3                                         [subtract]

-1

We know that the answer is A.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Problem 2

For the second problem, we need to know how to calculate percent error. The formula for precent error is \frac{|measured-exact|}{exact} *100%. We know that the exact value is 80 because the buyer was supposed to given 80. 75 is the measured value because that was what the buyer was given.

\frac{|75-80|}{80} *100%                               [subtract]

\frac{|-5|}{80} *100%                                   [solve absolue value]

\frac{5}{80} *100%                                     [divide]

0.0625*100%                               [multiply]

6.25

Since the problem said to round to one decimal place, we know that the answer is 6.3%.

Please see the photo. It's not 4 or 6.
Verdich [7]

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of the external part and the entire part of one secant is equal to the product of the external part and the entire part of the other secant, that is

5(x - 6 + 5) = 4(x - 3 + 4)

5(x - 1) = 4(x + 1) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

5x - 5 = 4x + 4 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

x - 5 = 4 ( add 5 to both sides )

x = 9
