Answer:

0.16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that John's average for making free throws in a basketball game is .80.

He can get a chance for II throw only if he hits the first

So required probability = Prob that he hits the first but misses the second

Prob for hitting a single trial = 0.8 which is constant for each throw

Prob for missing a single trial = 1-0.8 = 0.2 since there are only two outcomes

Hence required probability = 0.8(1-0.2) = 0.16

Answer:

63 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

252 - 3x = 378 - 5x

       + 5x          +5x

Add 5x to both sides

252 + 2x = 378

-252         - 252

Subtract 252 from both sides

2x = 126

Divide 2 from both sides

x = 63

Check you work by plugging 63 where the x is

252 - 3(63)

252 - 189 = 63

378 - 5(63)

378- 315 = 63
