To rearrange you must first simplify
aq-ac=d
add ac to each side:
aq=d+ac
then divide by a:
q=(d/a)+c and this is your answer
Answer:
a) 2.5 shots
b) 59.4 shots
c) 4.87 shots
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability of making the shot = 0.6
Probability of missing the shot = 0.4
a) The expected number of shots until the player misses is given by:

The expected number of shots until the first miss is 2.5
b) The expected number of shots made in 99 attempts is:

He is expected to make 59.4 shots
c) Let "p" be the proportion shots that the player make, the standard deviation for n = 99 shots is:

The standard deviation is 4.87 shots.
I'll do the first two problems to get you started. All problems shown will use the same formula.
===========================================
Problem 4
The formula to use is
C = 100*(B-A)/A
where
A = old value
B = new value
C = percent change
In this case, A = 12 and B = 36, so
C = 100*(B-A)/A
C = 100*(36-12)/12
C = 100*(24/12)
C = 100*2
C = 200%
We have a 200% increase. It is an increase because the value of C is positive.
===========================================
Problem 5
Use the same formula as in the previous problem. This time,
A = 75 is the old value
B = 25 is the new value
C = 100*(B-A)/A
C = 100*(25-75)/75
C = 100*(-50/75)
C = 100*(-2/3)
C = -66.6667%
C = -66.7%
The value of C is negative, so we have a percent decrease of roughly 66.7%
Answer:
67.5
Step-by-step explanation:
I've learned this multiple ways but in my opinion this is the easiest. Just times everything together so, 40 x 2.5 x 1.2 which equals 135 and then divide 135 by 2 which equals your answer of 67.5 which is rounded to the nearestt tenth already.
Answer:
280,000
Step-by-step explanation:
10^5=100,000
2.8 x 100,000=280,000
