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 solution to the system of equations below? y = negative one-fourth x + 2 and 3 y = negative three-fourths x minus 6
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the system equations are:

y = (-1/4)x + 2   (1)

3y = (-3/4)x – 6    (2)

If we multiply equation (1) by 3:

3y = (-3/4)x + 6      (1)

3y = (-3/4)x – 6       (2)

then subtract it from equation (2):

0y = 0x – 12

0 = -12

This is not possible, therefore, the system equation has no solution

What is the range of the function f(x) = 3x - 12 for the domain (-2, 2)?
Dmitry [639]

When x=-2

f(x) =3(-2) -12 =-6-12=-18

When x=2

f(x) = 3(2)-12=6-12=-6

So For the domain (-2,2)

Range of the function f(x) is (-18,-6)

So (-18 ,-6). is your answer.

Hope it helps....

The distance an object travels is determined by how fast it goes and for how long it moves. If an object’s speed remains constan
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

d = r * t

r = 50 mph

this will be very easy.

d = r * t

r = 50 mph

t = 5 hours

d = 250 miles

In five hours at a constant speed of 50 miles per hour, you would have traveled 250 miles.t = 5 hours

d = 250 miles

In five hours at a constant speed of 50 miles per hour, you would have traveled 250 miles.

ANSWER THIS PLS!!!!
astra-53 [7]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation: With the constant velocity motion formula, we can determine constant velocity of the object in motion whose data we collected:

x = x₀ + vt

Velocity can be calculated as:

v=\frac{x-x_{0}}{t}

v=\frac{70-40}{10}

v = 3 m/s

The beginning of the data collect, object is 40m away, then x₀ = 40.

So, equation modeling the object's path is x = 40 + 3t.
