You should look for outliers. If there is an outlier then you should use median because if you use mean the data would be skewed.

Points A and B have coordinates (8, 3) and (p, q) respectively. The equation of the perpendicular
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

p = -4, q = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -2x +4  ... (1)   perpendicular bisector of AB, slope = -2

slope of AB = 1/2

Line AB pass (8,3): (y-3) / (x-8) = 1/2

AB equation: y-3 = 1/2(x-8)      y = 1/2x - 1  ... (2)

(2)-(1): 5/2 x = 5      x = 2

y = 0       (2,0) intercept of bisector and AB, it is midpoint of A (8,3) and (p,q)

(8+p)/2 = 2

<u>p = -4</u>

(3+q)/2 = 0

<u>q = -3</u>

Probability of of winning next shot if he scores= 0.5

Probability of missing next shot if he misses = 1/6

a) Probability of scoring 2 shots later if he missed = (1-1/6)^2

=(5/6)^2

=25/36

b) % of successful shots= (1/2+5/6×(1/100))%

=4/3×1/100

=0.013%
