Given is a mathematical expression: x + y + z = 10.
How many different solution are there for x, y and z if: (a) x, y, z N? (b) x, y N and z Z+? (c) x, y Z+ and z N? A certain type of push-button door lock requires you to enter a code before the lock will open. The lock has ten buttons, numbered 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9. (a) If you must choose an entry code that consists of a sequence of six digits, with repeated numbers allowed, how many entry codes are possible? (b) If the lock is programmed to recognize eight different 6-digit codes, with repeated digits allowed in each code. How many different sets of recognizable codes are there? (c) From 1-(b) minimally how many of the eight different 6-digit codes are needed so that the sum of the two codes is even. Show your work. Set A = {x|(x N) and (x < 14)}. Show that if any 7 integers were taken from set A (without repeating), there will be 2 integers from the 7 integers chosen that will sum to 13.
10. Assume a set of alphabets is A ={ A,..,Z, a,..,z}, a set
of numerical digits is D = {0,1,..,9} and a set of alphanumerical is C = A D. A password of 8 characters was created. What is the probability that one can guess the password if (a) The password was created from the set of alphanumerical? (b) The password was created from the set of alphabets?

club C, club D) competing. (a) If each club competing has 20 players (4 strikers, 8 midfields, 8 defends), how many ways are there to choose a national team of 15 players from the clubs if the 15 players consist of 4 strikers, 5 midfields and 6 defends. (b) A club has brought 10 balls to a field. The club buys balls from only 3 well-know ball manufacturers. How many combinations of balls are there those can be brought to the field. (c) Between club A and club B, club A has twice the chance to be a winner. Between club B and club C, club B has three times chance to be a winner. Club C and club D has the same chance to be a winner. What are the chances for each club to be a winner? 12. A witness to the hit and run accident reports to the police about the plate number of the car that drove off. According to the witness the cars plate number have three letters followed by three numbers. The plate start with PB and numbers consist of 2 and 5. I, O, and Z cannot be used as a plate number. Note: plate number such as PBB 001 is not allow but PBB 1 is. How many different plate number that fulfill the description? 13.
