Suppose that a password for a computer system must have at least 8, but no more than 12, characters, where each character in the password is a lowercase English letter, an uppercase English letter, a digit, or one of the six special characters ∗, >, <, !, +, and =.
a) How many different passwords are available for this computer system?
b) How many of these passwords contain at least one occurrence of at least one of the six special characters?
c) Using your answer to part (a), determine how long it takes a hacker to try every possible password, assuming that it takes one nanosecond for a hacker to check each possible password.

Answers

Answer 1

Part a)

There are 52 letters (26 lowercase and 26 uppercase), 10 digits, and 6 symbols. There are 52+10+6 = 68 different characters to choose from.

If there are 8 characters for this password, then we have 68^8 = 4.5716 * 10^14 different passwords possible.If there are 9 characters, then we have 68^9 = 3.1087 * 10^16 different passwordsIf there are 10 characters, then we have 68^10 = 2.1139 * 10^18 different passwordsIf there are 11 characters, then we have 68^11 = 1.4375 * 10^20 different passwordsIf there are 12 characters, then we have 68^12 = 9.7748 * 10^21 different passwords

Adding up those subtotals gives

68^8+68^9+68^10+68^11+68^12 = 9.9207 * 10^21

different passwords possible.

Answer: Approximately 9.9207 * 10^21

======================================================

Part b)

Let's find the number of passwords where we don't have a special symbol

There are 52+10 = 62 different characters to pick from

If there are 8 characters for this password, then we have 62^8 = 2.1834 * 10^14 different passwords possible. If there are 9 characters, then we have 62^9 = 1.3537 * 10^16 different passwords If there are 10 characters, then we have 62^10 = 8.3930 * 10^17 different passwords If there are 11 characters, then we have 62^11 = 5.2037 * 10^19 different passwords If there are 12 characters, then we have 62^12 = 3.2263 * 10^21 different passwords

Adding those subtotals gives

62^8+62^9+62^10+62^11+62^12 = 3.2792 * 10^21

different passwords where we do not have a special character. Subtract this from the answer in part a) above

( 9.9207 * 10^21)  - (3.2792 * 10^21) = 6.6415 * 10^21

which represents the number of passwords where we have one or more character that is a special symbol. I'm using the idea that we either have a password with no symbols, or we have a password with at least one symbol. Adding up those two cases leads to the total number of passwords possible.

Answer: Approximately 6.6415 * 10^21

======================================================

Part c)

The answer from part a) was roughly 9.9207 * 10^21

It will take about 9.9207 * 10^21  nanoseconds to try every possible password from part a).

Divide 9.9207 * 10^21  over 1*10^9 to convert to seconds

(9.9207 * 10^21 )/(1*10^9) = 9,920,700,000,000

This number is 9.9 trillion roughly.

It will take about 9.9 trillion seconds to try every password, if you try a password per second.

------

To convert to hours, divide by 3600 and you should get

(9,920,700,000,000)/3600 = 2,755,750,000

So it will take about 2,755,750,000 hours to try all the passwords.

------

Divide by 24 to convert to days

(2,755,750,000)/24= 114,822,916.666667

which rounds to 114,822,917

So it will take roughly 114,822,917 days to try all the passwords.

------

Then divide that over 365 to convert to years

314,583.334246576

which rounds to 314,583

It will take roughly 314,583 years to try all the passwords

------------------------------

Answers:9.9 trillion seconds2,755,750,000 hours114,822,917 days314,583 years

All values are approximate, and are roughly equivalent to one another.

Answer 2

A) 9,920,671,339,261,325,541,376 different passwords are available for this computer system.

B) 875,353,353,464,234,606,592 of these passwords contain at least one occurrence of at least one of the six special characters.

C) It would take 314,582.42 years for a hacker to try every possible password.

To determine how many different passwords are available for this computer system; how many of these passwords contain at least one occurrence of at least one of the six special characters; and how long it takes a hacker to try every possible password, assuming that it takes one nanosecond for a hacker to check each possible password, the following calculations must be performed:

Answers

Answer:

$3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Total Cost Price: $12,000

Unit Cost Price= $6

Total Selling Price = $18,000

Required

Determine the profit on each share

First, we need to determine the units of share bought;

Units = Total cost price / Unit Cost Price

[tex]Units = \frac{\$12000}{\$6}[/tex]

[tex]Units = 2000[/tex]

Next is to determine the selling price of each share; This is calculated as follows;

Unit Selling Price = Total Selling Price / Units Sold

[tex]Unit\ Selling\ Price = \frac{\$18000}{\$2000}[/tex]

[tex]Unit\ Selling\ Price = \$9[/tex]

The profit is the difference between the unit cost price and unit selling price

[tex]Profit = Unit\ Selling\ Price - Unit\ Cost\ Price[/tex]

[tex]Profit = \$9 - \$6[/tex]

[tex]Profit = \$3[/tex]

If you randomly select a card from a well-shuffled standard deck of 52 cards, what is the probability that the card you select is a heart or Ace

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P(A\ or\ H) = \frac{4}{13}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Number of Cards = 52

Required

Determine  the probability of picking a heart or ace

Represent Ace with Ace and Heart = H

In a standard pack of cards; there are

[tex]n(A) = 4[/tex]

[tex]n(H) = 13[/tex]

[tex]n(A\ and\ H) = 1[/tex]

[tex]Total = 52[/tex]

Because the events are non mutually exclusive

[tex]P(A\ or\ H) = P(A) + P(H) - P(A\ and\ H)[/tex]

Where

[tex]P(A) = \frac{n(A)}{Total} = \frac{4}{52}[/tex]

[tex]P(H) = \frac{n(H)}{Total} = \frac{13}{52}[/tex]

[tex]P(A\ and\ H) = \frac{n(A\ and\ H)}{Total} = \frac{1}{52}[/tex]

Substitute these values in the above formula

[tex]P(A\ or\ H) = P(A) + P(H) - P(A\ and\ H)[/tex]

[tex]P(A\ or\ H) = \frac{4}{52} + \frac{13}{52} - \frac{1}{52}[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]P(A\ or\ H) = \frac{4 + 13 - 1}{52}[/tex]

[tex]P(A\ or\ H) = \frac{16}{52}[/tex]

Reduce fraction to lowest term

[tex]P(A\ or\ H) = \frac{4}{13}[/tex]

Hence, probability of a heart or ace is 4/13

Each side of a quilt square measures approximately 4.25 inches. If there are about 2.54 centimeters in 1 inch, how long is each side of the square in centimeters? Use complete sentences to explain your reasoning.

Answers

Answer: approximately 10.8 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a square, where each side measures approx. 4.25 in

Now we know that 1in ≈ 2.54 cm

Then, in 4.25 in, we have 4.25 times 1 inch, so we have 4.25 times the length of 2.54 cm

So the approximate measure of the sides in centimeters is:

4.25*(2.54)cm = 10.8 cm

So we have that each side measures approximately 10.8 centimeters

Ok, in the graph we can see that the minimal value for the y-axis is y = 4000.

This means that the graph is like a "zoom" tath points to the tips of the boxes.

This makes the relative difference between the columns seems to be bigger than it actually is, so the correct answer would be:

An old campfire is uncovered during an archaeological dig. Its charcoal is found to contain less than 1/1000 the normal amount of [tex]^{14}\text{C}[/tex] ​. Estimate the minimum age of the charcoal, noting that  [tex]2^{10} = 1024[/tex]

Answer:

57300 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the relation of an half-life time in relation to fraction which can be  expressed as:

[tex]\dfrac{N}{N_o} = (\dfrac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{t_{1/2}}[/tex]

here;

N represents the present atom

[tex]N_o[/tex] represents the  initial atom

t represents the time

[tex]t_{1/2}[/tex] represents the half - life

Given that:

Its charcoal is found to contain less than 1/1000 the normal amount of [tex]^{14}\text{C}[/tex] ​.

Then ;

[tex]\dfrac{N}{N_o} = \dfrac{1}{1000}[/tex]

However; we are to  estimate the minimum age of the charcoal, noting that  [tex]2^{10} = 1024[/tex]

so noting that [tex]2^{10} = 1024[/tex], then:

[tex]\dfrac{1}{1000}> \dfrac{1}{1024}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{1}{1000}> \dfrac{1}{2^{10}}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{1}{1000}> (\dfrac{1}{2})^{10}[/tex]

If

[tex]\dfrac{N}{N_o} = \dfrac{1}{1000}[/tex]

Then

[tex]\dfrac{N}{N_o} > (\dfrac{1}{2})^{10}[/tex]

Therefore, the estimate of the minimum time needed is 10 half-life time.

For [tex]^{14}\text{C}[/tex] , the normal half-life time = 5730 years

As such , the estimate of the minimum age of the charcoal =  5730 years × 10

= 57300 years

A bus company has contracted with a local high school to carry 450 students on a field trip. The company has 18 large buses which can carry up to 30 students and 19 small buses which can carry up to 15 students. There are only 20 drivers available on the day of the field trip.
The total cost of operating one large bus is $225 a day, and the total cost of operating one small bus is $100 per day.
Determine the minimum cost of transporting all 450 students.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information;

Let consider p to be the number of large buses and q to be the number of small buses.

The company has 18 large buses which can carry up to 30 students and 19 small buses which can carry up to 15 students.

The linear inequality represent the students with respect to the total students s:

30p + 15q   ≥  450   -----(1)

They are only 20 drivers available on the day of the field trip, therefore only 20 buses can be used. So,

p  +   q    ≤  20      ----- (2)

Also , There  are only 19 small buses and 18 large buses:

0 ≤  p ≤ 18

0 ≤  q ≤ 19

The total cost of operating one large bus is $225 a day, and the total cost of operating one small bus is $100 per day

In order to minimize the cost of transporting all 450 students, let z be the minimal cost. i.e

z = 225p + 100q

From equation 1 and 2 ; if we plot them graphically on the graph, the following points of intersection were obtained as shown in the sketch below, in which the shaded region lies the answer.

The point of intersection between equation (1) and (2) is (p,q) = (10,10)

From the critical point in the sketch of our graph attached below, the following values of z can be determined.

Point(s)              Value for Z

(15,0)                 15 ×  225 = 3375

(18,0)                 18 ×  225 =  4050

(18,2)                 (18 × 225 )+ (2 × 100 ) = 4250

(10,10)                (10 × 225) + (10 × 100) = 3250

Thus ; the minimum cost of transporting all 450 students = $3250

Answers

Answer:

11,215

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sequence of interest earned by Marius on his savings account as

200, 208, 216.30, 225, …, the sequence of interest forms a geometric sequence since they have a common ratio.

[tex]r =\frac{T_2}{T_1}= \frac{T_3}{T_2}= \frac{T_4}{T_3}\\ r =\frac{208}{200}= \frac{216.30}{208}= \frac{225}{216.30} \approx 1.04[/tex]

To get how much total interest will Marius have earned by the 30th year the account is active, we will find the sum of the first 30 terms of the geometric sequence as shown.

[tex]S_n =\frac{ a(r^n-1)}{r-1} \ for \ r> 1\\ \\\\ n = 30, a = 200, r = 1.04\\S_{30} = \dfrac{ 200(1.04^{30}-1)}{1.04-1}\\\\S_{30} = \dfrac{ 200(3.243-1)}{0.04}\\\\S_{30} = \dfrac{ 200(2.243)}{0.04}\\\\S_{30} = \dfrac{ 448.6}{0.04}]\\\\S_{30} = 11,215[/tex]

Hence total interest that Marius will earn by the 30th year the account is active is 11,215.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not complete, let me solve a question that is exactly like this one.

A certain car model has a mean gas mileage of 34 miles per gallon (mpg) with a standard deviation 5 mpg. A pizza delivery company buys 43 of these cars. What is the probability that the average mileage of the fleet is greater than 33.5 mpg?

Answer:

Given that the mean (μ) is 34 miles per gallon (mpg) with a standard deviation (σ) 5 mpg. The sample (n) is 43.

The z score is used in statistics to determine by how much the raw score is above or below the mean. It is given by:

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} \\for\ a \ sample\ size:\\z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

For the average mileage of the fleet is greater than 33.5 mpg (x > 33.5):

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n} }\\z=\frac{33.5-34}{5/\sqrt{43} } =-0.66[/tex]

From the normal distribution table, The probability that the average mileage of the fleet is greater than 33.5 mpg = P(x > 33.5) = P(z > -0.66) = 1 - P(z < -0.66) = 1 - 0.2546 = 0.7454 = 74.54%

Alpha (α) is used to measure the error for decisions concerning true null hypotheses, while beta (ß) is used to measure error for decisions concerning false null hypotheses.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose we have events X and Y.

1. If it is said that X equals Y, when X is actually not equal to Y, α is used in this case, the null hypotheses.

2. If X is said to not be equal to Y, when X is actually equal to Y, β is used in this case, the false null hypotheses.

Answer:

18 - 8 * n = -6 * n

The number is 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n equal the number

Look for key words such as is which means equals

minus is subtract

18 - 8 * n = -6 * n

18 -8n = -6n

Add 8n to each side

18-8n +8n = -6n+8n

18 =2n

Divide each side by 2

18/2 = 2n/2

9 =n

The number is 9

▹ Answer

n = 9

▹ Step-by-Step Explanation

18 - 8 * n = -6 * n

Simple numerical terms are written last:

-8n + 18 = -6n

Group all variable terms on one side and all constant terms on the other side:

(-8n + 18) + 8n = -6n + 8n

n = 9

Solve x2 + 9x + 8 = 0 by completing the square. What are the solutions?
O (1.-8)
O (1.8)
O (-1-8)​

Answers

Answer: (-1,-8)

Explanation:

x^2 + 9x + 8 = 0
x^2 + 9x = -8

Add (9/2)^2 to both sides

x^2 + 9x + (9/2)^2 = -8 + (9/2)^2
(x + 9/2)^2 = -8 + 81/4
(x + 9/2)^2 = -32/4 + 81/4
(x + 9/2)^2 = 49/4

Square root both sides

Sqrt (x + 9/2)^2 = sqrt 49/4
x + 9/2 = plus or minus 7/2

Set x + 9/2 = 7/2:

x + 9/2 = 7/2
x = 7/2 - 9/2
x = -2/2 = -1

Set x + 9/2 = -7/2:
x + 9/2 = -7/2
x = -7/2 - 9/2
x = -16/2 = -8
