A basketball player that shoots 80% from the free throw line attempts two free throws. The notation for conditional probability

is P(made 2nd attempt|made 1st attempt) .
Which notation is the probability of the two events being independent?




​ P(made 2nd attempt|made 1st attempt)=P(made 1st attempt and made 2nd attempt)P(made 1st attempt) ​

​ P(made 2nd attempt|made 1st attempt)=P(made 2nd attempt)P(made 1st attempt) ​

P(made 2nd attempt|made 1st attempt)=P(made 1st attempt)P(made 2nd attempt)

P(made 2nd attempt|made 1st attempt)=P(made 2nd attempt)

Answer:

P(made 2nd attempt|made 1st attempt)=P(made 2nd attempt)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here given that a basketball player that shoots 80% from the free throw line attempts two free throws.

If x is the no of shoots he makes (say) then we find that each throw is independent of the other.

In other words, because he made successful first attempt, his chances for second attempt will not change

Prob for success in each attempt remains the same as 0.80

Hence I throw is independent of II throw.

When A and B are independent,then we have

P(A/B) = P(A)

Hence answer is

P(made 2nd attempt|made 1st attempt)=P(made 2nd attempt)

MatroZZZ [7]
<span>(x, y)→(x − 8, y − 7) is the correct translation. Take point D for example. The coordinate of D is (2, 5). The coordinate of D' (after translation) is (-6, -2). Since 2-8=-6, 5-7=-2, only the first choice is correct. You can also try other points and see why only this is the right translation.</span>

A product is composed of four parts. In order for the product to function properly in a given situation, each of the parts must
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

P(working product) = .99*.99*.96*.96 = .0.903

Step-by-step explanation:

For the product to work, all four probabilities must come to pass, so that

P(Part-1)*P(Part-2)*P(Part-3)*P(Part-4)

where

P(Part-1) = 0.96

P(Part-2) = 0.96

P(Part-3) = 0.99

P(Part-4) = 0.99

As all parts are independent, so the formula is P(A∩B) = P(A)*P(B)

P (Working Product) =  P(Part-1)*P(Part-2)*P(Part-3)*P(Part-4)

P (Working Product) = 0.96*0.96*0.96*0.99*0.99

P(Working Product) = 0.903

Find the cost price when,<br>(a) Selling price = Rs 725 and 15% gain​
Debora [2.8K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Selling Price (SP) = Rs. 725

profit rate (P%) = 15 %

Now

Cost Price (CP)

=  \frac{sp \:  \times 100}{100 + p\%}  \\  =  \frac{725 \times 100}{100 + 15}   \\  =  \frac{72500}{115}  \\  = rs \: 630.42
