Answer:

The correct Answer is 0.0571

Explanation:

53% of U.S. households have a PCs.

So, P(Having personal computer) = p = 0.53

Sample size(n) = 250

np(1-p) = 250 * 0.53 * (1 - 0.53) = 62.275 > 10

So, we can just estimate binomial distribution to normal distribution

Mean of proportion(p) = 0.53

Standard error of proportion(SE) =  \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n} } = \sqrt{\frac{0.53(1-0.53)}{250} } = 0.0316

For x = 120, sample proportion(p) = \frac{x}{n} = \frac{120}{250} = 0.48

So, likelihood that fewer than 120 have a PC

= P(x < 120)

= P(  p^​  < 0.48 )

= P(z < \frac{0.48-0.53}{0.0316}​)      (z=\frac{p^-p}{SE}​)  

= P(z < -1.58)

= 0.0571      ( From normal table )

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

C. Spoofing.

Explanation:

Cyber security can be defined as preventive practice of protecting computers, software programs, electronic devices, networks, servers and data from potential theft, attack, damage, or unauthorized access by using a body of technology, frameworks, processes and network engineers.

Some examples of cyber attacks are phishing, zero-day exploits, denial of service, man in the middle, cryptojacking, malware, SQL injection, spoofing etc.

Spoofing can be defined as a type of cyber attack which typically involves the deceptive creation of packets from an unknown or false source (IP address), as though it is from a known and trusted source. Thus, spoofing is mainly used for the impersonation of computer systems on a network.

Basically, the computer of an attacker or a hacker assumes false internet address during a spoofing attack so as to gain an unauthorized access to a network.

  • (?:…) = Making Group (making group of former 5 digits)
  • [-\s] = Match a hyphen  or a space

                 (checking if a hyphen is present?)

  • \d{4} = Matching 4 digits (next four unknown x's)
  • …? = Pattern before it is optional
  • $ = Ending of the string.(denotation)

I need help plzzzzzzz
Aleonysh [2.5K]

By looking at your code, it seems like you're trying to let the user enter positive numbers until the user enters a negative number. To achieve this, you need to indent int(input("Enter a number, negative to stop")) inside the loop.

The second answer choice is correct.
