Helen plays basketball. For free throws, she makes the shot 75% of the time. Helen must now attempt two free throws. The probabi

lity that Helen makes the second free throw given that she made the first is 0.85. What is the probability that she makes both free throws?

Answer: 0.6375

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume that the event that she'll make the first shot is given as P(A) while making the second shot is P(B). Therefore, P(A/B) = 0.85

Therefore, the probability that she makes both free throws will be denoted as:

= 0.75 × 0.85

= 0.6375

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line in question is the same as the slope of the line parallel to it. Using y = mx + b, where m is the slope, we find the slope of our line is -3.

Using the pt-slope form, y - y1 = m( x - x1), we get y - (-1) = -3( x - 2) or y + 1 = -3x + 6. Which leads us to y = -3x + 5. QED

Two angles are supplementary the measure of one angle is 4 times the measure of the other angle what is the measure of the small
noname [10]
X + y = 180
x = 4y 
Plug that in and you get: 4y + y = 180
5y = 180
y = 36

If you want the larger angle, simply plug in y to x = 4y
So: x = 4(36) = 144

The smaller angle is 36 degrees, and the larger angle is 144 degrees.

A researcher at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is studying the growth of a certain bacteria. He starts his exper
steposvetlana [31]

The population of the bacteria after 8 hours is 1639 bacteria.

An exponential function is given by:

y = abˣ

where y, x are variables, a is the initial value of y and b is the multiplier.

Let y represent the population of bacteria after x hours.

Given that he starts his experiment with 500 bacteria, hence

a = 500

The bacteria grow at a rate of 16% per hour, hence:

b = 100% + 16% = 1.16

The exponential equation becomes:

y = 500(1.16)ˣ

After 8 hours:

y = 500(1.16)⁸ = 1639

The population of the bacteria after 8 hours is 1639 bacteria.
