if Scott wood makes 91% of all his free throws then what is the probability that he will make all of his next 6 attempts

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>.

The perimeter of a triangle is 141 inches. The lengths of the sides are in the ratio 5:12:13. Calculate the length of each side.
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

One side has length 5x

One side has length 12x

One side has length 13x

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 12x + 13x = 15

x = 15/(5 + 12 + 13) = 15/30 = 0.5

5(0.5) = 2.5

12(0.5) = 6

13(0.5) = 6.5

The authors of a paper presented a correlation analysis to investigate the relationship between maximal lactate level x and musc
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

a) Sample correlation coefficient, r = 0.7411

bi) test statistic, t = 4.102

bii) P-value = 0.000736

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The formula for the sample correlation coefficient is given by the formula:

r = \frac{S_{xy} }{\sqrt{S_{xx} S_{yy} }} }

S_{xx} = 2,648,130.357\\S_{yy} = 36.7376,\\S_{xy} = 7408.225

r = \frac{7408.225}{\sqrt{2648130.357*36.7376} }

r = 0.7511

b)

i) formula for the test statistic is given by the formula:

t = \frac{r\sqrt{n-1} }{\sqrt{1 - r^{2} } }

sample size, n = 4

t = \frac{0.7511\sqrt{14-1} }{\sqrt{1 - 0.7511^{2} } }

t = 4.102

ii) Degree of freedom, df = n -2

df = 14 -2

df = 12

The P-value is calculate from the degree of freedom and the test statistic using excel

P-value =(=TDIST(t,df,tail))

P-value = (=TDIST(4.1,12,1)

P-value = 0.000736

After releasing of radioactive material into.The atnosphere from.A nuclear.Powe plant in a country in 1988, the hay in that coun
Radda [10]

Answer:

the question is incomplete, so I looked for a similar one:

<em>After the release of radioactive material into the atmosphere  from a nuclear power plant, the hay was contaminated by iodine  131 ( half-life, 8 days). If it is all right to feed the hay to cows  when 10% of the iodine 131 remains, how long did the farmers  need to wait to use this hay? </em>

iodine's half life (we are given x, we need to find b):

0.5A₀ = A₀eᵇˣ

x = 8 days

we eliminate A₀ from both sides

0.5 = eᵇ⁸

ln 0.5 = ln eᵇ⁸

-0.69315 = b8

b = -0.69315 / 8 = -0.08664

since the farmers need to wait until only 10% of the iodine remains (we already calculated b, now we need to find x):

0.1A₀ = A₀eᵇˣ

0.1 = eᵇˣ

ln 0.1 = bx

where b = -0.08664

x = ln 0.1 / -0.08664  = -2.302585 / -0.08664  = 26.58 days
