In a set of base-ten blocks, let 1 flat represents 1 unit.
a. What does 1 long represents?
b. What does 1 cube represents?
c. Represent 1.23 using the blocks with these representations.

(a)
To find:
In a set of base-ten block, 1 long represents.
Answer to Problem 1NT
Solution:
1 long represents
Explanation of Solution
Given:
In a set of base-ten blocks, 1 flat represents 1 unit.
Approach:
Write decimal in form of tenths and hundredths.
Calculation:
There are 10 block/ long in 1 flat.
Hence, 1 long/ block represents 0.1 flat.

(b)
To find:
In a set of base-ten block, 1 cube represents.
Answer to Problem 1NT
Solution:
1 cube represents
Explanation of Solution
Given:
In a set of base-ten blocks, 1 flat represents 1 unit.
Approach:
Write decimal in form of tenths and hundredths.
Calculation:
There are again 10 cubes in 1 long.
By equation (1)
Hence, 1 cube represents 0.01 flat.

(c)
To represent:
The number 1.23 using blocks.
Answer to Problem 1NT
Solution:
The representation of 1.23 is
Explanation of Solution
Given:
In a set of base-ten blocks, 1 flat represents 1 unit.
Approach:
Write decimal in form of tenths and hundredths.
Calculation:
Here
1 long = 0.1 flat
1 cube = 0.01 flat
Here 1 represent 1 flat,

- Fred needs to choose a password for a certain website. Assume that he will choose an 8-character password, and that the legal characters are the lowercase letters a, b, c, ..., z, the uppercase letters A, B, C, ..., Z, and the numbers 0, 1, . . ., 9. (a) How many possibilities are there if he is required to have at least one lowercase letter in his password? (b) How many possibilities are there if he is required to have at least one lowercase letter and at least one uppercase letter in his password? (c) How many possibilities are there if he is required to have at least one lowercase letter, at least one uppercase letter, and at least one number in his password?arrow_forwardI need detailed help solving this exercise from homework of Calculus I.I do not really understand how to do, please do it step by step, not that long but clear.
