Well, it seems tome that if he makes  91%  of all his free throws, then every time
he steps up to the line, there's a  91%  chance that he'll make THAT throw.

Now the basketball has no memory, so the probability is the same for each
attempt, and the probability of succeeding on two consecutive attempts is
91%  of the probability of succeeding on the first one, and so on and so forth.

So the probability of  6  consecutive baskets is (91%) x (91%) x ... etc, 6 times.

That's just  (0.91)⁶ = <em>56.787 percent</em>.

show that thw roots of the equation (x-a)(x_b)=k^2 are always real if a,b and k are real. Please I really need help with this
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Check the value of the discriminant

Δ = b² - 4ac

• If b² - 4ac > 0 then roots are real

• If b² - 4ac = 0 roots are real and equal

• If b² - 4ac < 0 then roots are not real

given (x - a)(x - b) = k² ( expand factors )

x² - bx - ax - k² = 0 ( in standard form )

x² + x(- a - b) - k² = 0

with a = 1, b = (- a - b), c = -k²

b² - 4ac = (- a - b)² + 4k²

For a, b, k ∈ R then (- a - b)² ≥ 0 and 4k² ≥ 0

Hence roots of the equation are always real for a, b, k ∈ R
