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

Solving Exponential and Logarithmic Equations In Exercise, solve for x.<br> In 2x - In(3x - 1) = 0
LenKa [72]

Answer:

\frac{-1}{3x^2-x}

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. If f(x) is in th form of f(x)=g(x)-h(x) then f'(x)=g'(x) - h'(x)
  2. When f(x)=z(g(x)) then f'(x)= z'(g(x))g'(x) (called as chain rule)

<u>using these information</u>:

g(x)=ln2x then g'(x)=\frac{(2x)'}{2x} =\frac{2}{2x}=\frac{1}{x}

h(x)=In(3x - 1) then h'(x)=\frac{(3x-1)'}{3x-1} =\frac{3}{3x-1}f'(x)=g'(x) - h'(x) =[tex]\frac{1}{x} - \frac{3}{3x-1} =\frac{-1}{3x^2-x}
