    The sample space is 22 words and out of it, 14 words are known to have meanings for the student. In the problem, we use 10 C8 + 10 C9 + 10 C10 to associate at least 8 words. The complete formula is (10 C8 * (14/22) ^8 * (8/22) ^2 + 10 C9 (14/22) ^9 * (8/22) ^1 + 10 C 10 (14/22) ^10 * (8/22) ^) 0) that is equal to 0.233
