Answer:

no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{1}{3}$ (21 - 3a) = 6 - a ( multiply through by 3 to clear the fraction )

21 - 3a = 18 - 3a ( subtract 21 from both sides )

- 3a = - 3 - 3a ( add 3a to both sides )

0 = - 3 ← not possible

This indicates the equation has no solution

Mookie Betts of the Boston Red Sox had the highest batting average for the 2018 Major League Baseball season. His average was 0.

Annette [7]

Answer:

Binomial probability, with $n = 5, p = 0.352$

Step-by-step explanation:

For each time Mookie Betts went to bat, there were only two possible outcomes. Either he got a base-hit, or he did not. The probability of getting a hit on each at-bat is independent of any other at-bat. This means that we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

His average was 0.352.

This means that $p = 0.352$
