The numbers 0 through 9 are written on index cards. Three of the cards are randomly selected to form a 3-digit code. How many different codes are possible? Is it 388?
On the 1st card, there are 9 possible digits you could pick up On the 2nd card, there are 8 possible digits you could pick up On the 3rd card, there are 7 possible digits you could pick up Total=9*8*7=504
That's inaccurate.
Please, re-check that.
wouldn't it be 720
Sorry, 10*9*8- I missed out the 0, so there are 10 possible digits. 720 overall
Ah, thank you! Do you think you could care to do another one? :)
Find the number of favorable outcomes in the sample space for the experiment. A number cube is rolled twice. The sum of the rolls is 7
Would it be 12?
..
1 + 6, 6 + 1 , 5+2, 2+5 = 4 outcomes
oops sorry I forgot 3 + 4, 4 + 3
so there is 6 outcomes
