So with that data we can say 88% of 9 of his shots will go in. That number is probably going to be a decimal so we'll round up. 0.88 x 9 = 7.92. You can't make a hundredth of a free throw shot so let's round up to 8 a whole number. The theoretical probability that Paul will make his next nine shots is 8/9.
Answer:
1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
-4/9 * - 3/8
A negative times a negative is a positive
Rewriting
4/9 * 3/8
4/8 * 3/9
Simplifying
1/2 * 1/3
1/6

Answer:
The original height of the tree is 18 m.
Step-by-step explanation:
Please see attached photo for explanation.
From the diagram, we shall determine the value of 'x'. This can be obtained by using the pythagoras theory as follow:
x² = 5² + 12²
x² = 25 + 144
x² = 169
Take the square root of both side
x = √169
x = 13 m
Finally, we shall determine the original height of the tree. This can be obtained as follow.
From the question given above, the tree was broken from a height of 5 m from the ground which form a right angle triangle with x being the Hypothenus as illustrated in the diagram.
Thus, the original height of the will be the sum of 5 and x i.e
Height = 5 + x
x = 13 m
Height = 5 + 13
Height = 18 m
Therefore, the original height of the tree is 18 m.
The correct answer is m=-2 (slope) and b=4 (y-intercept).
