A computer password consists of six characters.a. How many different passwords are possible if each character may be any lowerca
Citrus2011 [14]

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

A city block has 6 pigeons and then 1 week later there are 9 pigeons. Let P(t)be the number of pigeons where t is measured in we
Pavel [41]

Using proportions, it is found that the differential equation which describes the growth of the pigeon population is given by:

\frac{dP}{dt} = 1.5P

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

In this problem, considering the initial population and the population one week later, the rate of growth is given by:

k = 9/6 = 1.5.

The standard differential equation for population growth is:

\frac{dP}{dt} = kP

Hence:

\frac{dP}{dt} = 1.5P

Answer:

  D  (7, 0.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equations must be interpreted to be ...

  • y = -1/2x +4
  • y = 1/2x -3

A graph shows the solution to be (7, 0.5), matching selection D.

___

You can add the two equations together to get ...

  (y) +(y) = (-1/2x +4) + (1/2x -3)

  2y = 1 . . . . . simplify

  y = 1/2 . . . . .divide by 2

It can be convenient to use the second equation to find x.

  1/2 = 1/2x - 3

  1 = x - 6 . . . . . . multiply by 2

  7 = x . . . . . . . . . add 6

The solution is (x, y) = (7, 0.5). . . . . matches selection D.

What is the solution to this equation 5x -8(x + 5)= 6-3x
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 8(x + 5) = 6 - 3x

Remember to follow PEMDAS. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.

First, distribute -8 to all terms within the parenthesis

-8(x + 5) = (-8)(x) + (-8)(5) = -8x - 40

5x - 8x - 40 = 6 - 3x

Isolate the variable (x). Add 3x & 40 to both sides

5x - 8x (+3x) - 40 (+40) = 6 (+40) - 3x (+3x)

5x - 8x + 3x = 6 + 40

Simplify. Combine like terms

(5x - 8x + 3x) = (6 + 40)

0 = 46 ; False 0 ≠ 46 ∴ no solution is your answer
