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)

What is the y-coordinate of the solution for the system of equations? x−y=−11 y+7=−2x
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

y= 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of equations:

x-y=-11

y+7=-2x

In order to find the y coordinate of the solution we must first find the solution to this system of equations. We first start by solving one of the given equations and then substitute the answer of that into the second equation and further solve to get the final answers.

x=y=-11

y+7=-2x

y+7=-2x

+ -7

y = -2x - 7

x - y = -11

y = -2x-7

x-(-2x-7)=-11

x--2x=x+2x=3x

3x+7=-11

-7

-11+-7=-18

3x=-18

\div3

-18\div3=-6

x=-6

y=-2x-7

y=(-2)(-6)-7

-2\times-6=12-7=5

y=5

Hope this helps.
