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

ost common letter to start a word. If we randomly pick 20 unique words, which of these lists of words will come closest to the theoretical probability of getting a word beginning with T?

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>

Hello, could you please explain this to me?
Viefleur [7K]

Find the value of r(q(4)), so first you need to find the value of q(4).

q(4), this means that x = 4, so substitute/plug it into the equation to find the value of q(x) when x = 4:

q(x) = -2x - 1      Plug in 4 into "x" since x = 4

q(4) = -2(4) - 1

q(4) = -8 - 1

q(4) = -9        

Now that you know the value of q(4), you can find the value of r(x) when x = q(4)

r(x) = 2x² + 1

r(q(4)) = 2(q(4))² + 1      Plug in -9 into "q(4)" since q(4) = -9

r(q(4)) = 2(-9)² + 1

r(q(4)) = 2(81) + 1

r(q(4)) = 163           163 is the value of r(q(4))

Write the equation in standard form for the circle with radius 9 centered at the origin.
amid [387]
The standard form of the equation of a circle of radius r, with (assuming centre h, k) is given as:

(X-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2

As we are required to write an equation in standard form for the circle with radius 9 centred at the origin.
Centre(h,k)=(0,0), r=9

Substituting these values into the standard form of the equation of a circle given above:

(X-0)^2 + (y-0)^2 = 9^2
X^2 + y^2 =81

The standard form is x^2 + y^2 =81

I’m pretty sure this is right
