J. J. Redick is an excellent free throw shooter and makes 90% of his free throws (i.e., he has a 90% chance of making a single f

ree throw). Assume that free throw shots are independent of one another. Find the probability J. J. Redick will make five consecutive free throws.

Answer:

59.049%

Step-by-step explanation:

J. J. Redick is an excellent free throw shooter and makes 90% of his free throws

P(making one free throw) =90%

Therefore:

P($making 5 consecutive free throws)=P(making 1st) X P(making 2nd) X P(making 3rd)X P(making 4th) X P(making 5th)\\\\=90\%X90\%X90\%X90\%X90\%\\\\=0.9X0.9X0.9X0.9X0.9\\\\=0.59049\\\\=59.049\%

For waht values of x do the vectors -1,0,-1), (2,1,2), (1,1, x) form a basis for R3?
DaniilM [7]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The values of x for which the given vectors are basis for R³ is:

                        x\neq 1

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

We know that for a set of vectors are linearly independent if the matrix formed by these set of vectors is non-singular i.e. the determinant of the matrix formed by these vectors is non-zero.

We are given three vectors as:

(-1,0,-1), (2,1,2), (1,1, x)

The matrix formed by these vectors is:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-1&2&1\\0&1&1\\-1&2&x\end{array}\right]

Now, the determinant of this matrix is:

\begin{vmatrix}-1 &2 & 1\\ 0& 1 & 1\\ -1 & 2 & x\end{vmatrix}=-1(x-2)-2(1)+1\\\\\\\begin{vmatrix}-1 &2 & 1\\ 0& 1 & 1\\ -1 & 2 & x\end{vmatrix}=-x+2-2+1\\\\\\\begin{vmatrix}-1 &2 & 1\\ 0& 1 & 1\\ -1 & 2 & x\end{vmatrix}=-x+1

Hence,

-x+1\neq 0\\\\\\i.e.\\\\\\x\neq 1
