Cutting on (12,0) and (0,4)
Suppose

is the number of possible combinations for a suitcase with a lock consisting of

wheels. If you added one more wheel onto the lock, there would only be 9 allowed possible digits you can use for the new wheel. This means the number of possible combinations for

wheels, or

is given recursively by the formula

starting with

(because you can start the combination with any one of the ten available digits 0 through 9).
For example, if the combination for a 3-wheel lock is 282, then a 4-wheel lock can be any one of 2820, 2821, 2823, ..., 2829 (nine possibilities depending on the second-to-last digit).
By substitution, you have

This means a lock with 55 wheels will have

possible combinations (a number with 53 digits).
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A line passes through the point (–6, –2), and its y-intercept is (0, 1). What is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to this line and passes through the point (2, 3)?
Answer:
x = 3 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
You could simplify the given equation first, then solve the resulting 2-step linear equation. It might work better to undo the operations done to the variable.
<h3>Solution</h3>
(5 1/6 -x)(2.7) -5 3/4 = -1 1/4 . . . . . given
(5 1/6) -x)(2.7) = 4 1/2 . . . . . . . add 5 3/4 to both sides
(5 1/6 -x) = 4.5/2.7 = 5/3 . . . divide by 2.7
31/6 -10/6 = x . . . . . . . . . . add x-5/3, use common denominators
21/6 = x = 7/2
x = 3 1/2
Answer:
CD = two square root of 10 end square root
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the length of a segment, use the distance formula. Substitute the order pairs for the endpoints of the segment. CD has the end points (-7, -4) and (-1, -2).
