Luke misses 4% of the free throws he attempts in a season. How many total free throws did he attempt if he missed 54?

Mathematics

Firlakuza [10]3 years ago

Answer:

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

A small resort is situated on an island that lies exactly 3 miles from P, the nearest point to the island along a perfectly stra
Artemon [7]

Answer:

The distance from the  shoreline from P the pipe from the island will reach land in order to minimize the total construction cost is 0 m, or the pipe should be routed to the point P

Step-by-step explanation:

We note that, cost to lay pipe in water = 2.3 × cost to lay pipe on land

Distance of the small resort on the island from point p on the shoreline = 3 miles

Location of the closest source of fresh water is 10 miles along the shoreline from p

∴ The small resort, the point p and the closest source of the fresh water on the shoreline together form a right triangle with sides

Height = 3 miles

Base = 10 miles and

Hypotenuse = \sqrt{3^2 + 10 ^2} = \sqrt{109} =  10.44 \, m

To find the cost of laying the pipeline by the various route, we multiply the water routes by 2.3 and the land routes by 1 and we get

Costs:

Height =  Water route = 2.3 × 3 miles = 6.9

Base = Land route = 1 × 10 miles = 10

Hypotenuse = Water route = 2.3 × 10.44 miles = 24.012

Therefore, the two routes are either

10 miles to point p and 3 miles across the water to the resort with a cost = 10 + 6.9 = 16.9 or

Directly to the small resort through 10.44 miles across the water with cost = 24.012

Therefore, to minimize cost, the pipe should come from the resort to P from there to the fresh water source.

That is the distance from the  shoreline from P the pipe from the island will reach land in order to minimize the total construction cost = 0 m.
