A basketball player that shoots 80% from the free throw line attempts two free throws. The notation for conditional probability

is P(made 2nd attempt|made 1st attempt) .
Which notation is the probability of the two events being independent?




​ P(made 2nd attempt|made 1st attempt)=P(made 1st attempt and made 2nd attempt)P(made 1st attempt) ​

​ P(made 2nd attempt|made 1st attempt)=P(made 2nd attempt)P(made 1st attempt) ​

P(made 2nd attempt|made 1st attempt)=P(made 1st attempt)P(made 2nd attempt)

P(made 2nd attempt|made 1st attempt)=P(made 2nd attempt)

Answer:

P(made 2nd attempt|made 1st attempt)=P(made 2nd attempt)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here given that a basketball player that shoots 80% from the free throw line attempts two free throws.

If x is the no of shoots he makes (say) then we find that each throw is independent of the other.

In other words, because he made successful first attempt, his chances for second attempt will not change

Prob for success in each attempt remains the same as 0.80

Hence I throw is independent of II throw.

When A and B are independent,then we have

P(A/B) = P(A)

Hence answer is

P(made 2nd attempt|made 1st attempt)=P(made 2nd attempt)

-4c - 11 = 4c +21<br><br> Please help! I have literally no idea
MissTica
<span> -4c - 11 = 4c +21                                        add 4c to both sides
</span>
<span> -4c - 11 + 4c = 4c + 21 + 4c                        simplify

- 11 = 8c + 21</span>                                <span>               subtract 21 from both sides

- 11 - 21 = 8c + 21 - 21                                </span><span>simplify

- 32 = 8c                                                      divide both sides by 8

c = - 4


That's it






</span>

I hope you got the idea

A section of a rectangle is shaded. The area of the shaded section is 63 square units. What is the value of x?
ella [17]

Answer:

x=11  

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a graph of a rectangle. The area of the shaded section is 63 square units. We are asked to find the value of x.

We can see from our given graph that shaded section forms a trapezoid, so we will use area of trapezoid formula to find the value of x.

\text{Area of trapezoid}=\frac{(a+b)}{2}\times h, where, a and b represents the parallel sides of trapezoid and h represents height of trapezoid.

Upon substituting our given values in above formula we will get,

63=\frac{7+x}{2}\times 7

63=(7+x)*3.5

Upon dividing both sides of our equation by 3.5 we will get,

\frac{63}{3.5}=\frac{(7+x)*3.5}{3.5}

18=7+x

Let us subtract 7 from both sides of our equation.

18-7=7-7+x

11=x

Therefore, the value of x is 11 units.
