Answer:

4 hours 55 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Time, speed, and distance are related by ...

t = d/s

t = (177 mi)/(36 mi/h) = 4 33/36 h = 4 11/12 h

The fractional part of this time is ...

11/12 hour is (11/12)(60) = 55 minutes

The van will take 4 hours and 55 minutes to travel a distance of 177 miles.

Answer:

(a) 0.6

(b) 0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

If I am reading the little table right, You have made 9 shots, and have missed 6 of them. Therefore, in total, you have made $9+6=15$ shots.

The definition of probability is the number of events of a desired outcome divided by the total number of outcomes. Since you wish to make a shot for part a, the number of desired outcomes thus far is 9, out of 15 total shots. Thus,

$P($ making a shot $)=\frac{9}{15}=\frac{3}{5}=0.6$

Since making a shot and not making a shot are mutually exclusive events, and the only two events that could occur when shooting a basket, the probability of not making a shot and the probability of making a shot are all of the possible outcomes, and is thus equal to 1.

$P($ making a shot $)+P($ missing a shot) $=1$
