With identity theft on the rise, it is important that online websites, especially banking and credit card sites, require longer pin numbers. Complete each part of the assessment below. Genuine Bank’s website requires that your pin number only be two numerical digits long. So, the first number to choose is from set A below and the second number to choose is from set B below. Find the cross product A × B to determine the number of possible combinations. A = {0, 2, 4, 6, 8} B = {1, 3, 5, 7, 9} Valliant Bank’s website requires that your pin number be two digits long, the f

Similar (and smaller) example A = {1, 2} B = {4, 5} A X B = {(1, 4), (1, 5), (2, 4), (2,5)}

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

let me know if that helps or not

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It doesn't. I have no clue on how to do this

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

A X B is the set of all ordered pairs of the form (a,b) where 'a' comes from set A and b comes from set B

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so for instance, (0, 1) is part of A X B so is (0,3)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

make sense?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not really

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

pick a number in set A, any number

OpenStudy (anonymous):

15

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

15 is not in set A

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

A = {0, 2, 4, 6, 8}

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

pick any number from that set

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

now pick a number from set B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

whats set B

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

given at the top, set B is B = {1, 3, 5, 7, 9}

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 7

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so one ordered pair is (6, 7)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

that's just one of the 25 ordered pairs

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

see how to get that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Kind of

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

try making a table and that should help you generate the entire set A X B
