Despite what he may have told you, Mr. Robeson is actually quite bad at
making free throws in basketball. On average he makes 35% of the free
throws he takes and he doesn't learn from previous shots. What is the
probability that the first time he makes a free throw is on the 5th shot he
attempts?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.009754

Step-by-step explanation:

(.65)^4 x (0.35)

By saying that he makes a free throw on the fifth show, he did not make the first four, therefore 4 of the times he shot, he did not get it in.

If he makes the shot 35% of the time, he doesn't make it 65% of the time: (1-0.35=.65)

On the last shot he made it, which he makes 35% of the time therefore:

You want to multiply : 0.35 (which is = 35%) by itself four times and then multiply that by 0.65 (since the last shot was made)

0.35 x 0.35 x 0.35 x 0.35 x 0.65 = 0.009754 or 0.9754%

There is a 0.9754% chance he makes it BUT a 0.009754 probability

James earned a total of $68 last week. He earned $48 washing cars and won x dollars in an art contest. Which equation can be used to find the number of dollars James won in the art contest?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

since $68 is your total, let's use the example z=y+x

z is our total, and we know that he made a total of $68, therefore z is the number 68.

We also know that James made a total of $48 washing cars, which gives us the answer 48 as y. So in order to find x, we would need to subtract 68 and 48, which is called using the communtative property. Thsi answer would give us the remaining amount of money we do not yet know.

So 68-48= 20. therefore James made $20 at the art contest.

suppose the continuous random variable, x, is uniformly distributed between 2 and 10. what is the probability that x is either less than 3 or greater than 8?

Answers

The probability that x is either less than 3 or greater than 8 is 0.375   .

In the question ,

it is given that ,

a continuous random variable X , is uniformly distributed between 2 and 10 ,

So , alpha(α) = 2 and beta(β) = 10 .

the probability that x is either less than 3 or greater than 8 can be calculated by :

P(X < 3  or X > 8) = 1 - (8 - 3)/(β - α)

= 1 - (8 - 3)/(10 - 2)

= 1 - 5/8

On simplifying further ,

we get ,

= 0.375

Therefore , the probability P(X < 3  or X > 8) is = 0.375   .

Sam tries to draw lines of reflection through a rectangle so that the rectangle can be reflected onto itself. How many lines of reflection can sam draw? enter the answer in the box.

Answers

Therefore the solution of this question is Sam can draw 2 lines of reflection.

What is line of reflection?

If a figure is reflected in a line or a point, the image and preimage are consistent. A reflection converts each point in a figure into an image along a predetermined line. Line of Reflection refers to the fixed line.

To determine the quantity of lines that will reflect a rectangle back onto itself.

Due to the fact that the line of reflection is the perpendicular bisector of the segment connecting a point with its image. The perpendicular bisector of a side must be the line of reflection if one side of the rectangle is to map to itself.

A rectangle has two distinct perpendicular bisectors of its sides, leading to two lines of reflection that map a rectangle to itself.

Therefore Sam can draw 2 lines of reflection.

Answers

The solution for f(11) in the function when the function f(x) = 12|x + 8| is 228

How to determine the solution for f(x) in the function?

From the question, we have the following equation that can be used in our computation:

f(x) = 12|x + 8|

The above equation is an absolute value equation

An absolute value equation has the following representation

f(x) = a|x - h| + k

So, we have the following representation

f(x) = 12|x + 8|

Also from the question, we have

f(11)

This means that the value of x is 11, and we calculate f(x) when x = 11

Substitute the known values in the above equation, so, we have the following representation

f(11) = 12|x + 8|

So, we have the following equation

f(11) = 12|11 + 8|

There are constants to add or subtract to both sides of the equation

Also, there are factors to multiply or divide from both sides of the equation

So, we have the following representation

f(11) = 12|19|

Solving further, we have

f(11) = 12 * 19

Evaluate the products

f(11) = 228

Hence, the solution is 228

The abscissa or x-coordinate of any point on Y-axis is zero.

Which line is the x-coordinate?

Two parallel lines, known as axes (pronounced AX-eez), that are perpendicular to each other make up a coordinate grid. Typically, the term "x-axis" refers to the horizontal axis. The y-axis is the common name for the vertical axis.

The ordinate and abscissa are other names for the x-axis and y-axis, respectively. These two axes can be used to find or represent any point on the coordinate plane as an ordered pair of the form (x,y).

The equation of a line is typically written as y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

In order to represent the equation in y-intercept (y=mx+b) form, the slope and y-intercept must be included. The slope is the ratio of the y-to-x change. Draw a sloping triangle connecting the two spots you find on the line.

There are 12 clothing options for Michael to choose from in his closet. By the fundamental principle of counting, the possible number of options is calculated.

What is the fundamental principle of counting?

The fundamental principle of counting states that an operation/event can be performed in 'm' ways and a second operation/event can be performed in 'n' ways. Then there are (m × n) ways for the two operations to be performed together.

Calculation:

It is given that,

Michael is having three shirts - yellow, green, and orange; two pairs of shorts: navy, gray and two footwear: tennis shoes and sandals.

So, we can write

the number of shirts = 3

the number of shorts = 2

the number of footwear = 2

Then, according to the fundamental principle of counting, all these are multiplied to get the total number of ways that he can wear them together.

I.e., 3 × 2 × 2 = 12

Therefore, there are 12 combinations for him to choose one among these.

Aaliyah is going to invest in an account paying an interest rate of 5% compounded continuously. How much would Aaliyah need to invest, to the nearest hundred dollars, for the value of the account to reach $181,000 in 19 years?

Answers

Based on the given parameters, the value of the money to invest initially is $99341.383

How to determine the amount of investment?

The given parameters about the compound interest are

Amount, A = $181000

Interest Rate, R = 5%

Time, t = 19 years

Number of times, n = 365 i.e. continuously

To calculate the amount, we have:

A = P + CI

Where

C = P(1 + R)^t

So, we have

A = P(1 + R)^t

This can be rewritten as

A = P(1 + R/n)^nt

Substitute the known values in the above equation

181000 = A * (1 + 5%/365)^(12*365)

So, we have

A = 181000 /[(1 + 5%/365)^(12*365)]

Evaluate the expression

A = 99341.383

Hence, the amount of the investment is $99341.383

Answers

The probability that at least one of the cubes will have the face labeled 5 showing and that the sum of the showing faces will be greater than 8 is 5/36.

What is the probability?

A probability is a numerical representation of the possibility or chance that a specific event will take place. Probabilities can be written as percentage between 0 and 1.

Number of sample spaces that are labeled 5 and display a sum more than 8 / total sample space gives the likelihood that at least one of the cubes will have the face labeled 5 showing and that the sum of the faces showing will be greater than 8.

When two cubes are rolled, the total sample space is 36.

The sample space that is labelled 5 and has a sum greater than 5 are: (4,5) , (5, 4) , (5, 5), (5, 6) , (6,5) = 5

By solving the two equations, the values of x , y and x-y are found to be 1, 25/3 and -22/3 respectively.

Given two equations are;

5x+3y=30..........(1)

−5x−2y=−25.........(2)

Now , from (2)

−5x−2y=−25

⇒ 5x +2y = 25 (multiply both sides with '-' sign)

y = [tex]\frac{(25 -5x)}{2}[/tex]

Solving the system;

substitute the above vale of y in eq (1)

5x + 3y = 30

⇒ 5x + 3 ( [tex]\frac{(25 -5x)}{2}[/tex]) = 30

⇒  5x + ([tex]\frac{(75 - 15x)}{2}[/tex]) = 30

⇒  [tex]\frac{10x+75-15x}{2}[/tex] = 30

⇒ -5x + 75 = 60

⇒  -5x = -5

⇒ x = 1

x = 1

Now substitute the value of x in (1)

5x + 3y = 30

⇒ 5 × 1 + 3y = 30

⇒ 3y = 25

⇒ y = 25/3

∴ y = 25/3

Now using the value of x and y , we can find the value of x - y

x - y = 1 -25/3 = (3 - 25)/ 3 = -22/3
