Let X = the number of nonzero digits in a randomly selected 5-digit PIN that has no restriction on the digits. What are the possible values of X? Give three possible outcomes and their associated X values

Sagot :

Answer: there are total 100,000 5-digit PINs.

Three Possible outcomes          Associated X values

            12345                                        5

            04555                                        4

            00001                                          1

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,  X = the number of nonzero digits in a randomly selected 5-digit PIN that has no restriction on the digits.

Possible number of outcomes = 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10

= 100,000

Possible outcomes          Associated X values

12345                                        5

04555                                        4

00001                                            1

Hence, there are total 100,000 5-digit PINs.
