There is a 83.8% chance that the player will have at least 1 missed free throw.

Answer:

<em>4190</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

<em>Probability theory predicts that there is a </em><em>16.2%</em><em> chance of a particular basketball player making </em><em>5 free throws</em><em> in a row.</em>

Let us assume that, A be the event that, 5 free throws happen. So

P(A)=0.162

So the probability of the event of not happening the event A or event of missing  at least 1 free throw will be,

P(A^c)=1-0.162=0.838

So, in 5000 trial, number of missed free throw will be,

=0.838\times 5000=4190

y = kx, where k is a constant

This can be rearranged to give:

k = y/x

As mentioned, k is a constant, therefore, the answer is y/x
