A special type of door lock has a panel with five buttons labeled with the digits 1 through 5. This lock is opened by a sequence

belka [17]

There are several ways the door can be locked, these ways illustrate combination.

There are 3375 possible combinations

From the question, we have:

$\mathbf{n = 5}$ --- the number of digits

$\mathbf{r = 3}$ ---- the number of actions

Each of the three actions can either be:

<em>Pressing one button</em>
<em>Pressing a pair of buttons</em>

<em />

The number of ways of pressing a button is:

$\mathbf{n_1 = ^5C_1}$

Apply combination formula

$\mathbf{n_1 = \frac{5!}{(5-1)!1!}}$

$\mathbf{n_1 = \frac{5!}{4!1!}}$

$\mathbf{n_1 = \frac{5 \times 4!}{4! \times 1}}$

$\mathbf{n_1 = 5}$

The number of ways of pressing a pair is:

$\mathbf{n_2 = ^5C_2}$

Apply combination formula

$\mathbf{n_2 = \frac{5!}{(5-2)!2!}}$

$\mathbf{n_2 = \frac{5!}{3!2!}}$

$\mathbf{n_2 = \frac{5 \times 4 \times 3!}{3! \times 2 \times 1}}$

$\mathbf{n_2 = 10}$

So, the number of ways of performing one action is:

$\mathbf{n =n_1 + n_2}$

$\mathbf{n =5 + 10}$

$\mathbf{n =15}$

For the three actions, the number of ways is:

$\mathbf{Action = n^3}$

$\mathbf{Action = 15^3}$

$\mathbf{Action = 3375}$

Hence, there are 3375 possible combinations

If y varies directly as the x^2 and y = 200 when x = 5, what is the value of y when x = -3?

gayaneshka [121]

As the variation is direct we have:
$y = kx ^ 2
$
We must find the value of k.
For this, we use the following data:
y = 200 when x = 5
Substituting values we have:
$200 = k5 ^ 2
$
Clearing k:
$k = 200/5 ^ 2

k = 200/25

k = 8$
Then, the function is:
$y = 8x ^ 2
$
We evaluate the function for x = -3
$y = 8 (-3) ^ 2

y = 8 (9)

y = 72$
Answer:
the value of y when x = -3 is:
c.
72
