Answer:
y=6.2 and x=0.4 or (0.4,6.2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since both expressions are equal to y, we can set them equal to each other and solve for x:
3x+5=8x+3
5=5x+3
2=5x
2/5=x
0.4=x
Now to solve y:
y=8(2/5)+3
y=16/5+3
y=3.2+3
y=6.2
Check answers:
6.2=3(0.4)+5
6.2=1.2+5
6.2=6.2
6.2=8(0.4)+3
6.2=3.2+3
6.2=6.2
Answers work, so y=6.2 and x=0.4 or (0.4,6.2) as an ordered pair
Given that the player made 184 out of 329 throws, the probability of making the next throw will be:
P(x)=[Number of shots made]/[Total number of throws]
=184/329
=0.559
Thus the expected value of proposition will be:
0.599*24+0.559*12
=20.134
