6. The Telvio mobile service provider allows each customer to choose a part of their 10- digit mobile number when getting a new connection. The first two digits of the number are fixed by the company based on the customer’s region. The customer can choose the last four digits as they wish. The company chooses each of the remaining four digits uniformly at random, and without replacement, from the list {0, 1, 2, . . . , 9}. Note that this means that the digits in positions 3, 4, 5 and 6 in a Telvio number are all different.

(a) 1/4
(b) 1/16
(c) 1/24
(d) 1/32

8. What is the result of f(100)?
(a) 100
(b) 5050
(c) 50
(d) 1

(b) 11
(c) 5
(d) 64

10. What can you conclude from the following statements about problems A and B? (I) There is a polynomial-time algorithm to solve A. (II) There is an exponential-time algorithm to solve B. (III) B can be reduced to A in polynomial-time.
(a) Not all of them can be simultaneously true.
