Answer:

i. Estimated number of free throws of the best player = 0.85 * 40

ii. 34 free throws

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage of free throws made by the best player = 85%

Percentage of free throws made by the second best player = 75%

Percentage of free throws made by the third best player = 70%

Therefore, for 40 attempts;

i. Estimated number of free throws made by the best player = 85% x 40

                                                         = 0.85 x 40

                                                         = 34

ii. Estimated number of free throws made by the second best player = 75%x 40

                                                                 = 0.75 x 40

                                                                 = 30

iii. Estimated number of free throws made by the third best player = 70% x 40

                                                                   = 0.70 x 40

                                                                   = 28

Thus, the equation that gives the estimated number of free throws is 0.85 * 40.

The best player will make about 34 free throws.

Radda [10]

Answer: 0.9844

Step-by-step explanation:

given data:

sample size n = 6

It’s assumed that half the population are male and the remaining half are females

F = 1/2

M = 1/2

the probability that the investigator would draw altleats one male

P ( x ≥ 1 ) =

= 1 - ( 0.5 ) ^ 6

= ( 0.5 )^6

= 0.9844

Please help and explain.
Radda [10]

Explanation:

Vertex form of a quadratic function is given by y = a(x - h)² + k

where

1) 'a' determines if parabola is stretched or compressed.

   If a > 1 then graph is stretched by a factor of a.

   If 0 < a < 1, then graph is compressed by a factor of a.

2) If a > 0 then graph opens upwards with a happy face. (minimum)

3) If a < 0 then graph opens downwards with a sad face. (maximum)

4) (h, k) is the vertex point

5) The axis of symmetry is x = h

While solving for y = 1(x - 4)² + 3

Identify following's:

Vertex: (h, k) = (4, 3)

Axis of symmetry: x = 4

Max/Min: As here a > 0, Minimum (4, 3)

Stretch/compression: a = 1, the graph is stretched by a factor of 1.

Direction of opening: As a > 0, the graph opens upwards.

Find the value of X or Y so that the line through the points has the given slope. (X, 0) and (4,1); slope: 1/5
Ronch [10]
Point slope formula:
(y₂ -y₁) = m(x₂ - x₁)
(1 - 0) = \frac{1}{5}(4 - X)
1 = \frac{4}{5} - \frac{1}{5} X
\frac{1}{5} =  -\frac{1}{5} X

-1 = X
