We are given the following variables:

p = probability of success / probability to shoot a free throw shot = 0.74

q = probability of failure = 1 – p = 0.26

n = number of samples / number of free throws = 8

 

We can solve for the average free throws he or she can make in the game using the formula:

average = n * p

average = 8 * 0.74

average = 5.92

round off:

average = 6 free throw shots

 

We can solve for the variance using the formula:

variance = n * p * q

variance = 8 * 0.74 * 0.26

variance = 1.5392

round off:

variance = 1.54 free throw shots

Need help solving this !
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To start of u have to subtract 150 with 180 which is 180 (cuz its a straight line and E to get angle S

Now that we know that 180-150= 30

We add S and R then subtract by 180

so 80+ 30= 110

then we said subtract 180

180-110= 70

Now we know that angle Q is 7-

Then the bottom is RS & SE (NOT REALLY SURE)

It is a Remote Interior Angle

IF RIGHT PLZ GIVE BRAINLIEST  

THANK U  

HAVE A GREAT DAY AND BE SAFE :)

kap26 [50]

Answer:

3 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

If the dog chews off 4 inches every day, you first have to multiply the inches by the number of days, which in this case is 3 x 4, which equals 12. In 3 days, he chewed off 12 of the original 15 inches, leaving only 3 inches left.
