Let n be the number of expected free throw until she makes the first throw. 

Suppose the number of throws are 10, Then she will make 8 of the 10 throws. On 5 throws, she make 4 (80% of 5) and on 2 throws, she makes 1.6, it means one throw. We deduce that the expected number of free throws until she makes one is 2.

Simplify ( 1/2A + 1/2B )^2
zysi [14]
Notice that both A and B are multiplied by (1/2).

Thus, the given expression can be re-written as [(1/2)(A+B)]^2.

Square the (1/2) and the (A+B) separately, and then multiply together the resulting squares:

(1/4)(A^2 + 2AB + B^2)
