A study conducted on 40,000 words in the English language found that about 6,670 words started with the letter T, which is the m
melisa1 [442]

To answer this problem, first let us calculate for the theoretical probability obtained from the study conducted:

Theoretical Probability = 6,670 / 40,000

Theoretical Probability = 0.16675 = 0.17

From the given choices, the list of words which can give this similar amount of probability is:

“to, sarcastic, epithet, for, less, corruptible, than, the, offspring, open, any, primary, loyalty, table, out, whom, example, who, mention, say”

In this set of words, the number of words starting with letter T is 4. Calculating for the probability of getting a word starting with T in this set is:

Sample probability = 4 / 20

<span>Sample probability = 0.20</span>

Maria has added 2 liters of pure alcohol to 8 liters of a 48% alcohol solution. What is the alcohol concentration of the resulti
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

The alcohol concentration of the resulting solution is 58.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

- At first we must to find the quantity of pure alcohol in the 8 liters

∵ The alcohol concentration is 48% in 8 liters

∴ The quantity of pure alcoholic = \frac{48}{100}*8=3.84 liters

- She added 2 liters pure alcohol to the solution that means the solution

  increased by 2 liters and alcohol quantity increased by 2 liters

∵ She added 2 liters pure alcohol

∴ The quantity of pure alcohol = 2 + 3.84 = 5.84 liters

∴ The resulting solution = 2 + 8 = 10 liters

- Now we need to find the concentration of alcohol in the resulting

  solution

∵ The quantity of pure alcohol = 5.84 liters

∵ The resulting solution = 10 liters

∴ The concentrate of alcohol = \frac{5.84}{10}*100 % = 58.4%

The alcohol concentration of the resulting solution is 58.4%

Trigonometry question! find y. round to the nearest tenth!​
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

<h2>y = 242.4 ft</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the picture.

Use sine:

sine=\dfrac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

We have a measure of the angle and length of the hypotenuse:

\alpha=29^o,\ hypotenuse=500\ ft

\sin29^o\approx0.48481

Substitute:

\dfrac{y}{500}=0.48481              <em>multiply both sides by 500</em>

y=242.405\to y\approx242.4
