The US Constitution originally said that senators would be selected by state legislatures. Per the terms of the 17th Amendment,

senators are now elected directly by the citizens of their respective states.
The party balance in the 115th Congress (2017–19) is 51 Republicans, 47 Democrats, and 2 independents, who caucus with the Democrats. As of January 2018, Republicans had control of the legislatures of 31 states; Democrats had control in 14; control was split in 4; and Nebraska was officially nonpartisan.

Based on the provisions of the 17th Amendment, we can see that the provisions of the United States Constitution gave the people the right to vote for their senators who would represent their interests instead of the state legislature.

With this in mind, we can see that if the seat of a senator is unoccupied, then the governor of the state can<em> make his appointment of a senator</em>.

Based on the given data on the party balance of the US Senators, it is still not enough reason to repeal the 17th Amendment because giving the people the right to choose their representatives is still the core value of democracy which should never be tampered with.

Zara has forgotten her 4-digit PIN code.
djverab [1.8K]
800 different sets of digits


Since the first digit is a factor of 20, the factors of 20 are 1,2,4,5,10,20. We only need the single digit factors which are 1,2,4 and 5. These 4 numbers can be permuted in 1 way for the first digit, so we have ⁴P₁.
For the second digit, we have 10 digits permuted in 1 way, ¹⁰P₁ and also for the third digit, we have 10 digits permuted in 1 way, ¹⁰P₁ and for the last digit, which is divisible by 5, it is either a 0 or 5, so we have two digits permuted in 1 way, ²P₁.
So, the number of different 4 digit number that Zara'2 4-digit PIN code could be is ⁴P₁ × ¹⁰P₁ × ¹⁰P₁ × ²P₁ = 4 × 10 × 10 × 2 = 800 different sets of digits
