A small combination lock on a suitcase has 4 wheels, each labeled with the 10 digits 0 to 9. how many 4 digit combinations are

tamaranim1 [39]

This is the easiest way to solve this problem:

Imagine this represents how many combinations you can have for each of the 4 wheels (each blank spot for one wheel): __ __ __ __

For the first situation it says how many combos can we make if no digits are repeated.
We have 10 digits to use for the first wheel so put a 10 in the first slot
10 __ __ __
Since no digit can be repeated we only have 9 options for the second slot
10 9_ __ __
Same for the third slot, so only 8 options
10 9 8 __
4th can't be repeated so only 7 options left
10 9 8 7

Multiply the four numbers together: 10*9*8*7 = 5040 combinations

For the next two do the same process as the one above.

If digits can be repeated? You have ten options for every wheel so it would look like this: 10 10 10 10

10*10*10*10 = 10,000 combinations

If successive digits bust be different?
We have 10 for the first wheel, but second wheel only has 9 options because 2nd number can't be same as first. The third and fourth wheels also has 9 options for the same reason.

10 9 9 9 

10*9*9*9 = 7290 combinations

Answer:

0% probability that at least 1,500 will agree to respond

Step-by-step explanation:

I am going to use the binomial approximation to the normal to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

$E(X) = np$

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

$\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}$

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that $\mu = E(X)$ , $\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}$ .
