An organization requires passwords of length 8 characters. Each character can be an uppercase letter (26), a lowercase letter (26), a digit (10) or one of 10 special symbols. The policy mandates that a valid password must contain at least one uppercase letter, at least one digit, and at least one special symbol. Using inclusion‑exclusion, determine the total number of distinct passwords that satisfy the policy. Express your answer as a formula involving powers such as \(72^{8}\), \(46^{8}\), \(62^{8}\), \(36^{8}\), \(52^{8}\) and \(26^{8}\).

Answer Options

A. \(72^{8} - (46^{8}+2\times62^{8}) + (2\times36^{8}+52^{8}) + 26^{8}\)
B. \(72^{8} - (46^{8}+2\times62^{8}) - (2\times36^{8}+52^{8}) - 26^{8}\)
C. \(72^{8} - (46^{8}+2\times62^{8}) + (2\times36^{8}+52^{8}) - 2\times26^{8}\)
Correct Answer D. \(72^{8} - (46^{8}+2\times62^{8}) + (2\times36^{8}+52^{8}) - 26^{8}\)
Correct Answer
D
Correct Option:
\(72^{8} - (46^{8}+2\times62^{8}) + (2\times36^{8}+52^{8}) - 26^{8}\)
