If there is a 22.4% chance that a soccer player will make 4 shots in a row, then the probability that he/she WON'T make 4 shots in a row is...
100 -22.4 = 77.6%
So the number of simulations that he/she will miss at least one shot in 2500 simulations would be...
2500 x 77.6% =
2500 x .776 = 1940
Answer:
x= -19/8
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a system of equations problem. Set up the 2 equations like so: If the angles are complementary then they add up to 90, therefore, a + b = 90. We also know that a is 16 more than b. The word "is" means equals and "more" is addition. Therefore, a is 16 more than b is "a = b + 16". Now sub in that value of a (b + 16) into the first equation and solve for b. Then back-substitute to solve for a. (b + 16) + b = 90 so 2b + 16 = 90 and 2b = 74. So b = 37. If b = 37, then a + 37 = 90 and a = 53. Check yourself to make sure that 37 + 53 add up to equal 90 (they do, just get used to checking yourself for accuracy).
Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
5x-2.5=17.5
5x=17.5+2.5
5x=20
x=20/5
x=4
