He has a 26% of getting a strike, which means he has a 74% chance of not getting a strike ( 100% - 26% = 74%).Multiply the chance of not getting a strike by the number of attempts:0.74 x 0.74 x 0.74 x 0.74 x 0.74 = 0.22The answer is B) 0.22The probability of making a free throw is 77%, the probability of not making one would be 23% ( 100% - 77% = 23%).Add the probability of making the first one ( 0.77) by the probability of making the second one multiplied by the probability of missing the second one ( 0.77x 0.23)0.77 + (0.77 x 0.23)0.77 + 0.18 = 0.95The answer is D) 95%
He has a 26% of getting a strike, which means he has a 74% chance of not getting a strike ( 100% - 26% = 74%).
Multiply the chance of not getting a strike by the number of attempts:
0.74 x 0.74 x 0.74 x 0.74 x 0.74 = 0.22
The answer is B) 0.22
The probability of making a free throw is 77%, the probability of not making one would be 23% ( 100% - 77% = 23%).
Add the probability of making the first one ( 0.77) by the probability of making the second one multiplied by the probability of missing the second one ( 0.77x 0.23)
