Answer:

a) 2.5 shots

b) 59.4 shots

c) 4.87 shots

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of making the shot = 0.6

Probability of missing the shot = 0.4

a) The expected number of shots until the player misses is given by:

E(X) = \frac{1}{P(X)}=\frac{1}{0.4}  \\E(X) = 2.5\ shots

The expected number of shots until the first miss is 2.5

b) The expected number of shots made in 99 attempts is:

E=99*0.6\\E=59.4\ shots

He is expected to make 59.4 shots

c) Let "p" be the proportion shots that the player make, the standard deviation for n = 99 shots is:

s=\sqrt{n*p*(1-p)}\\ s= 4.87\ shots

The standard deviation is 4.87 shots.

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

  3

Step-by-step explanation:

Darian's plans are 3 feet long, and they're for a table 9 feet long. The scale factor is 9/3 = 3. That is, he must multiply the plan size by 3 to get the actual size.

_____

A scale factor is usually expressed as a fraction: (model size)/(real size). Here, it looks like you want a dilation factor that is (real size)/(model size).

Substitute each variable to determine whether the inequality statement is true or false 16>f if f=17
Nonamiya [84]

Answer: The statement is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the statement:

(16 > f) if  f = 17

In this case:

f = 17 is the hypothesis.

16 > f is the conclusion.

Then assuming that the hypothesis is true, we need to check if the conclusion is also true.

Then:

16 > f  means "16 is larger than f"

Now let's assume that the hypothesis is true, then f = 17, and we can replace this in the inequality above, now we get:

16 > 17

This says "16 is larger than 17"

This is clearly false, then when the hypothesis is true, the conclusion is false.

This means that the statement:

" 16>f if f=17 "

is false.
