Unbreakable Pattern? “The Navajo War Code”

What types of codes do people try to crack today?

Investigation 2.1 Pushing Buttons The Manager of Fail-Safe suspects that the security guard stole Rodney’s CD players. He suggested to Detective Curious that the guard had tried different combinations until the lock opened. The detective wondered how long it would take to try every possible combination.

Investigation 2.1 Pushing Buttons Some of the locks at Fail-Safe have push-button locks that consist of five lettered buttons. To open a push-button lock, the letters must be pressed in the correct sequence. Complete Problem 2.1 and the Follow-up in your groups.

Investigation 2.1 Pushing Buttons A.How many two-letter sequences are possible? B.How many three-letter sequences are possible? C.How many four-letter sequences are possible? D.How many five-letter sequences are possible? E.The security guard would not have known whether the sequence that would open Rodney’s lock consisted of 2, 3, 4, or 5 letters. How many possible lock sequences might she have to try?

Investigation 2.1 Follow-up Pushing Buttons 1.How long do you think it would take to try every possible lock sequence? Explain how you made your estimate. 2.Based on your work, do you think it is likely that someone opened Rodney’s lock by trying all the possible lock sequences? Explain. 3.Does your answer to question 2 make you suspicious of anyone who was near the crime scene? Explain.

Investigation 2.2 and 2.3 Dialing Combinations and Increasing Security

The detective was trying to make her case based on the push-button lock data when she discovered that Rodney’s locker has a combination lock. The combination locks at Fail-Safe have combinations consisting of 3 numbers from 0 to 39 in a given order such as or Do you think it would have been possible for someone to try every possible combination?

Investigation 2.2 and 2.3 Dialing Combinations and Increasing Security A.How many possible combinations are there for Rodney’s lock? Assume that a number may not appear more than once in a combination. B.How long do you think it would take someone to try all the possible combinations? Explain how you made your estimate.

Investigation 2.2 and 2.3 Dialing Combinations and Increasing Security Problem 2.2 Follow-up 1.The detective started to list the possible lock combinations, but soon became tired. She then tried to make a counting tree, but she found it very tedious to draw. As she studied the patterns in her work, she had an idea: “I can determine how many choices I have for each position in the combination. Then I can multiply those numbers together to predict the total number of possibilities!” Do you think the detective’s idea is reasonable? Why or why not?

Investigation 2.2 and 2.3 Dialing Combinations and Increasing Security Problem 2.2 Follow-up 2. For some locks, a combination may have the same number in the first and last position, but not in adjacent positions. This means that is allowed, but is not. If such combinations were allowed for the locks at Fail-Safe, how would the number of possible combinations for Rodney’s lock change? 3. If you were in charge of security at fail-Safe, would you recommend push-button locks or combination locks? Explain. 4. Does your work on this problem make you suspicious of anyone who was near the crime scene? Explain.

Investigation 2.2 and 2.3 Dialing Combinations and Increasing Security When the owner of fail-Safe learned about the robbery, he told the manager to replace all the locks with more secure locks. However, he made it clear that he did not want to spend a lot of money. The manager did some research and found that combination locks with more marks are more expensive than locks with fewer marks. He wanted to convince the owner that the increased security provided by locks with more marks was worth the extra investment. How do you think you could convince the owner to use locks with more marks?
