PLSSS HELPPP A football quarterback goes for a two-point conversion when the ball is within 10 yards of the end zone. During the

game, he has two opportunities for a two-point conversion. He misses the first attempt 50% of the time. When he misses the first attempt, he misses the second attempt 15% of the time. What is the probability of missing both two-point conversion attempts?

Answer:

The probability of missing both two-point conversion attempts is 7.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are informed that the probability of missing the first attempt is 50% of the time. Furthermore, the probability of missing on the second attempt given that he missed the first attempt is 15% of the time

Now,the probability of missing on both the two-point conversion attempts will simply be given by the product of these two probabilities since the events are independent;

50%*15% = 0.5 * 0.15 = 7.5%

Therefore, the probability of missing both two-point conversion attempts is 7.5%

Which of the following about the normal distribution is not​ true?
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

Normal distribution is a Continuous distribution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Distribution:

The following information is true about normal distribution.

  • ​Theoretically, the​ mean, median, and mode are the same.
  • Its parameters are the​ mean, mu​, and standard​ deviation, sigma.
  • About two thirds of the observations fall within plus or minus 1 standard deviation from the mean.

But normal distribution is not a discrete distribution. It is a continuous distribution.

  • The normal distribution is a continuous probability distribution. This has several implications for probability.
  • The probability that a normal random variable X equals any particular value is 0.

ITO
Setler [38]

Using the speed - distance relationship, the time left before the appointed time is 27 minutes.

<u>Recall</u><u> </u><u>:</u>

  • Distance = speed × time

  • Let time = t

<u>At</u><u> </u><u>10mph</u><u> </u><u>:</u>

  • Distance = 10 × (t + 3) = 10t + 30 - - - (1)

<u>At</u><u> </u><u>12</u><u> </u><u>mph</u><u> </u><u>:</u>

  • Distance = 12 × (t - 2) = 12t - 24 - - - - (2)

<em>Equate</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em>1</em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em>2</em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>:</em>

10t + 30 = 12t - 24

<em>Collect</em><em> </em><em>like</em><em> </em><em>terms</em><em> </em>

10t - 12t = - 24 - 30

-2t = - 54

<em>Divide</em><em> </em><em>both</em><em> </em><em>sides</em><em> </em><em>by</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>2</em>

t = 54 / 2

t = 27

Hence, the time left before the appointed time is 27 minutes.

Describe what happens to the graph of y=3x + 4 when the slope is changed 1/3 one over three
kumpel [21]

Answer:

see the explanation

The graph in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

y=3x+4

This is a linear equation (the graph is a line)

The y-intercept is the point (0,4) ---> value of y when the value of x is equal to zero)

The x-intercept is the point (-4/3,0) ---> value of x when the value of y is equal to zero)

The slope is m=3

If the slope is changed to m=1/3

we have

y=(1/3)x+4

This is a linear equation too (the graph is a line)

The y-intercept is the point (0,4) ---> is the same

The x-intercept is the point (-12,0) ---> the x-intercept is different

The slope is m=1/3

The second line becomes a lot less steep

Remember that the slope is the ratio between the rise and the run

In the first line the ratio rise/run is 4/1

In the second line the ratio rise/run is 1/3

see the attached figure to better understand the problem
