Given that the player made 184 out of 329 throws, the probability of making the next throw will be:
P(x)=[Number of shots made]/[Total number of throws]
=184/329
=0.559
Thus the expected value of proposition will be:
0.599*24+0.559*12
=20.134

Sara bought a pair of shoes that were $64 but were on sale for $46. Sales tax is 6%. How much did she pay for the shoes?
babymother [125]

Answer:

$48.76

Step-by-step explanation:

So, Sara bought the pair of shoes for $46 due to a discount.

Sales tax was 6% or 0.06. In other words, she had to pay 0.06(46)=2.76 for tax.

Thus, the total amount Sara paid for the shoes is $46+$2.76=$48.76

The annount of time (in minutes) that it takes to put out a fire varies inversely
sveticcg [70]

Given that the amount of time varies inversely with G.

It can be written as,

T G=K

where K is the constant.

We need to determine the time it takes to put out the fire when 200 gallons of water are used.

<u>The value of constant:</u>

When G=8, T=12 , we get;

(12)(8)=K

      96=K

Thus, the value of constant is  96.

<u>Time taken:</u>

Substituting G=2 and K=96 in the formula T G=K, we get;

T(2)=96

    T=48

Thus, the time taken to put out the fire using 200 gallons of water is 48 minutes.

Hence, Option B is the correct answer.
