"supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" has 34 letters, with 10 letters that appear more than once. In all, there are 34! permutations if we consider each letter to be distinct from any other, even duplicate letters.

If we assume duplicate letters are indistinguishable, then we need to divide this total by the number of ways we can permute those duplicate letters. For instance, the binary string 101 has 3! possible permutations, but in each permutation, we can rearrange the 1s in 2! ways (e.g. 101* and 1*01).

So in the word "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious", we have:

2 copies each of e, o, p, r, u;
3 copies each of a, c, l, s;
7 copies of i;

which means we have a total of

\dfrac{34!}{(2!)^5(3!)^47!}=1,412,469,529,257,855,275,311,104,000,000

possible permutations if we consider any duplicate letters identical.

Answer:

1,412,469,529,257,855,275,311

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the number of distinguishable permutations of the letters in the word supercalifragilisticexpialidocious?

supercalifragilisticexpialidocious is about 34 characters

some letters appear more than once

they are

 e, o, p, r, u; 2 copies

a, c, l, s;  3 copies

 i- 7 copies

The permutations will be then

(\frac{34!}{(2!)^5(3!)^4(7!)}

SO WE HAVE

1,412,469,529,257,855,275,311 ways are the number of ways we can arranged the word supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.

Answer:

A t-score of 2.0244 should be used to find the 99% confidence interval for the population mean

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 39 - 1 = 38

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 38 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of 0.99(t_{99}). So we have T = 2.0244.

A t-score of 2.0244 should be used to find the 99% confidence interval for the population mean

You are given f(0) = 1 and g(0) = -2 and g(1) = 3. What is <br> g ∘ f ( 0 ) <br> equal to?
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

  • <u><em>g∘f (0) = 1</em></u>

Explanation:

The <em>composition</em> of the <em>functions</em> f and g represented by g ∘ f ( 0 ) means that g is applied to f(0), i.e f(0) is the input to the function g.

Since f(0) = 1, you are going fo find g(1):

         \( g\circ f(x)=g(f(x)) \)\\\\\( g\circ f(0)=g(f(0)) \)\\\\\( g\circ f(0)=g(1) \)=3
