a basketball player makes each free-throw with a probability of 0.3 and is on the line for a one-and-one free throw. (that is, a second throw is allowed only if the first is successful.) what is the probability that the player will score 0 points

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.7 = 70% probability that the player will score 0 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each free throw, we have these following probabilities:

0.3 probability the player makes.

0.7 probability the player misses.

What is the probability that the player will score 0 points?

He is only allowed the second if he misses the first, thus, he ends with 0 points only if he misses the first.

For any free throw:

0.7 probability the player misses, so 0.7 = 70% probability that the player misses the first free throw, and 0.7 = 70% probability that the player will score 0 points.

You measure 49 turtles' weights, and find they have a mean weight of 80 ounces. Assume the population standard deviation is 6.1 ounces. Based on this, construct a 99% confidence interval for the true population mean turtle weight. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the true population mean turtle weight is between 77.76 and 82.24 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.005[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a p-value of [tex]1 - 0.005 = 0.995[/tex], so Z = 2.575.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

[tex]M = 2.575\frac{6.1}{\sqrt{49}} = 2.24[/tex]

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 80 - 2.24 = 77.76 ounces.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 80 + 2.24 = 82.24 ounces.

The 99% confidence interval for the true population mean turtle weight is between 77.76 and 82.24 ounces.

Find BD​

Answer:  [tex]8\sqrt{2}[/tex]

==========================================================

Work Shown:

Focus entirely on triangle ABD (or on triangle BCD; both are identical)

The two legs of this triangle are AB = 8 and AD = 8. The hypotenuse is unknown, so we'll say BD = x.

Apply the pythagorean theorem.

[tex]a^2 + b^2 = c^2\\\\c = \sqrt{a^2 + b^2}\\\\x = \sqrt{8^2 + 8^2}\\\\x = \sqrt{2*8^2}\\\\x = \sqrt{8^2*2}\\\\x = \sqrt{8^2}*\sqrt{2}\\\\x = 8\sqrt{2}\\\\[/tex]

So that's why the diagonal BD is exactly [tex]8\sqrt{2}\\\\[/tex] units long

If f(x) = x2 + 7x and g(x) = 3x - 1, what is f(g(x))?

Answers

Answer:

f(g(x)) = 9x^2 + 15x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

We are using function g(x) = 3x - 1 as the input to function f(x) = x^2 + 7x.

Starting with f(x) = x^2 + 7x, substitute g(x) for x on the left side and likewise substitute x^2 + 7x for each x on the right side.  We obtain:

f(g(x)) = (3x - 1)^2 + 7(3x - 1).

If we multiply this out, we get:

f(g(x)) = 9x^2 - 6x + 1 + 21x - 7, or

f(g(x)) = 9x^2 + 15x - 6

Shandra has a sheet of cardboard whose area is x2 + 2x - 15 square inches. We know that the length of the cardboard
sheet is (x + 5) inches. What is its width? (Hint: area = length width)

Answers

Answer:

(x - 3) inches

Step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of -15 (of the area term) and +5 (of the length term) suggests a term for the width ending in -3. and we need an x in there to get x² for the area.

so, immediate assumption is (x-3) for the width.

let's check

(x+5)(x-3) = x² + 5x - 3x - 15 = x² + 2x - 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Begin the solution by squaring both sides of the given equation.  We get:

9x^2 - 24x + 16 = 2x ^2 - 2x + 2

Combining like terms results in:

and the coefficients are a = 7, b = -22, c = 14, so that the discriminant of the quadratic formula, b^2 - 4ac becomes (-22)^2 - 4(7)(14) = 92

According to the quadratic formula, the solutions are

Two cards are drawn without replacement from a standard deck of 5252 playing cards. What is the probability of choosing a red card for the second card drawn, if the first card, drawn without replacement, was a club

Answers

Answer:

The probability is 0.51

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the of choosing a red card for the second card drawn, given that the first card drawn without replacement, was a club.

Then we need to assume that the first card drawn was a club, so now we have a deck of 51 cards with:

13 hearts

13 diamonds

13 spades

12 clubs.

Now with this deck, the probability of drawing a red card is equal to the quotient between the number of red cards and the total number of cards in the deck.

We have 26 red cards (13 hearts  + 13 diamonds)

And there is a total of 51 cards in the deck, then the probability of drawing a red card now is:

P = 26/51 =0.51

The probability is 0.51

A ball is thrown in air and it's height, h(t) in feet, at any time, t in seconds, is represented by the equation h(t)=−4t2+16t. When is the ball higher than 12 feet off the ground?
A. 3 B. 1 C. 1 D. 4

Answers

Hence the time that the ball will be height than 12 feet off the ground is 4secs

Given the expression for calculating the height in  feet as;

h(t) = -4t²+16t

If the ball is higher than 12feet, h(t) > 12

Substituting h = 12 into the expression

-4t²+16t > 12

-4t²+16t - 12 > 0

4t²- 16t + 12 > 0

t²- 4t + 3 > 0

Factorize

(t²- 3t)-(t + 3) > 0

t(t-3)-1(t-3) > 0

(t-1)(t-3)>0

t > 1 and 3secs

Hence the time that the ball will be height than 12 feet off the ground is 4secs
