For two shots Pedro has four outcomes:
<u>1 shot | 2 shot</u>
score | score
score | not score
not score | score
not score | not score
The probability Pedro's shot will score in a lacrosse game is 0.30 and the probability his shot will not score in a lacrosse game is 1-0.30=0.70. So you can count probabilities for all cases:
1. 0.3·0.3=0.09;
2. 0.3·0.7=0.21;
3. 0.7·0.3=0.21;
4. 0.7·0.7=0.49.
In total 0.09+0.21+0.21+0.49=1. The first outcomes is that what you need.
Answer: 0.09.
The perimeter is the total of adding all of the side lengths together.
A square has 4 equal side lengths.
So the perimeter of a square is:
P = s + s + s + s or P = 4s
[P = perimeter s = side lengths of the square]
Since you know the side length of the square is (x + 2 1/4), you can replace s with (x + 2 1/4)
P = 4s
P = 4(x + 2 1/4) Multiply 4 into (x + 2 1/4)
P = 4x + 8 4/4
P = 4x + 9
Since you know the perimeter, you can plug it in.(you could have also plugged it in in the beginning)
P = 4x + 9
14 = 4x + 9 Subtract 9 on both sides
5 = 4x Divide 4 on both sides
5/4 = x
Now that you know x, find the side length of the square.
(x + 2 1/4)
(5/4 + 2 1/4)
2 6/4 = 3 2/4 = 3 1/2 units or 3.5 units
To find the area of a square, you multiply 2 of the sides together:
A = s · s
A = 3.5 · 3.5
A = 12.25 units²

Complete Question
In the first half of a basketball game, a player scored 9 points on free throws and then scored a number of 2-point shots. In the second half, the player scored the same number of 3-point shots as the number of 2-point shots scored in the first half. Which expression represents the total number of points the player scored in the game?
a) 2x + 3x + 9
b) 2x + 3 + 9
c) 2x + 3x + 9x
d) 2 + 3x + 9
Answer:
a) 2x + 3x + 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of points shots a player scores = x
In a free throw, the player scored 9 points = 9
The player also scored a number of 2-point shots = 2x
In the second half, the player scored the same number of 3-point shots as the number of 2-point shots scored in the first half = 3x
The expression represents the total number of points the player scored in the game =
2x + 3x + 9
We Know, speed = Distance / Time
Here, Distance = 2748 miles
Time = 6 hours
Substitute their values in to the expression,
Speed = 2748 / 6 = 458 Miles / Hour
So, the speed would be: 458 miles/hour
Hope this helps!
A.) For the Junior Varsity Team, mean would be the appropriate measure of center since the data is <span>symmetric or well-proportioned while we should use standard deviation for getting the measure of spread since it also measures the center and how far the values are from the mean.
b.) For the Varsity Team, the median would be the appropriate measure of the center since the data is skewed left and not evenly distributed so median could be used since it does not account for outliers while we use IQR or interquartile range in measuring the spread of data since IQR does not account for the data that is skewed. </span>
