The boston celtics have won 16 nba championships over approximately 50 years. Thus it may seem reasonable to assume that in a gi

ven year the celtics win the title with probability p = 16/50 = 0.32, independent of any other year. Given such a model, what would be the probability of the celtics winning eight straight championships beginning in 1959?

We have been given that The boston celtics have won 16 nba championships over approximately 50 years. Therefore, it can be concluded that in any given year the probability of celtics winning the title will be p = 16/50 = 0.32

For Celtics to win eight straight championships in 1959, we will be required to multiply the probability of winning championship in one year to itself 8 times.

Therefore, the required probability is:

0.32^{8}=0.0001099511627776

Therefore, the required probability is almost 0.00011.

gretchen and Ezia received equal scores on a test made up of multiple choice questions and an essay. Gretchen got 18 multiple ch
timurjin [86]
The multiply choice were worth 4 points. 
Gretchen= 18x+19
Ezia= 15x+31

So basically you can enter any number. At first I picked 3 and then I did the math and I got 73 points for Gretchen and 76 points for Ezia. 

Then I pick four and then I got 91 points for them both. This is how I got the answer: 

18x+19=15x+31
18(4)+19=15(4)+31
72+19=60+31
91=91

Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of the leg in the triangle shown below.
Natali [406]
The answer to what the length of the leg would be is 15.

You would do this problem by first writing down your Pythagorean Theorem, which is a^2 + b^2 = c^2.

Since we have our hypotenuse which is c^2 in our equation, we would write or insert the number we have.

So our equation could be that a or b leg equals 20, it doesn’t matter which one.

So we could write, 20^2 + b^2 = 25^2. So we don’t know what b leg is.

First we should figure out what 20^2 is and what 25^2 is.

20^2 is 400 and 25^2 is 625.

Our equation now comes to 400 + b^2 = 625.

Now we take 400 and subtract it from
625 -> 400 + b^2 = 625
-400.

So 625 - 400 comes out to be 225.

Lastly instead of squaring or putting 225 to the second power, we do the opposite.

So instead of squaring 225 we must square root 225. √ 225 .

The square root of √ 225 comes out to be 15.
