Madeline found that the experimental probability of her scoring from a
three-point line in a basketball game is 1/10 or 10%. Out of 20 shots from a
three-point line, about how many points could she predict she would make?

pls help

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

6 points

Step-by-step explanation:

1/10=x/20cross multiply the x with the 10 and the 20 with the 1 so that you are now left with the fraction 10x/2010x divided by 20 will give you x=2to check and make sure this is still equivalent with the 10% of shots Madeline makes divide 2/20Since this is still 10 percent Madeline makes 2 out of every 20 shots Multiply those 2 shots by three points since it was from the three point line and we get 6 points

Hope that helps :)

Answer 2

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that she would be expected to make 6 points.

For each shot, there are only two possible outcomes, either she makes it, or she misses it. The probability of making a shot is independent of any other shot, which means that the binomial distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability, which has expected value given by:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

In this problem:

She takes 20 shots, hence [tex]n = 20[/tex].She has a 10% probability of making each shot, hence [tex]p = 0.1[/tex]

The expected number of shots she makes is given by:

[tex]E(X) = np = 20(0.1) = 2[/tex]

Since each shot from the three-point line is worth 3 points, she is expected to make 2 x 3 = 6 points.

Karl has 5 blue pencils, 3 yellow pencils and 2 black pencils. If Karl selects 2 pencils at random from his pencil case, without replacement, what is the probability that both pencils are not yellow?

Answers

In total you have 10 pencils but only 2 of them are yellow. Therefore when simplify this, the changes of not picking a yellow pencil is 8/10 which simplify to 4/5. There’s a 4/5 chance neither pencils will be yellow
The probability is 42/90 simplified to 7/15

Equation: probability of first non-yellow pencil x probability of second non-yellow pencil
7/10*6/9= 42/90= 7/15

There are 7 total pencils that are not yellow but because you don’t put the non-yellow pencil back there is a decrease in both the non-yellows and total pencils!

The spinner with 6 different parts and 4 different colors can be painted in 4⁶ ways.

What are permutation and combination?

A permutation is an arrangement of things where order matters, AB and BA are two different permutations.

The combination is a selection of things where order does not matter, AB and BA are the same combinations.

Given, you are going to paint the sixth sector spinner shown and there are 4 colors to choose from also each color can be used more than once and there are no other restrictions.

∴ The first part can e painted in 4 different ways and as there are no restrictions every 6 parts can be painted in 4 different ways.

So, the total no. of ways to color this spinner with 6 different parts and 4 different colors are,

4×4×4×4×4×4 ways,

Answers

The answer is C. Why? Well, see below!

A would be incorrect because the problem is asking what the area of the stamp would be. In order to find area, we multiply length and width by each other. The given equation we initially had shows division, and would therefore be incorrect. B would be incorrect because although the equation has the correct evaluation symbol, the formula for identifying length would be L = A / W, which means length equals area divided by width. Because the area is 1/4 in this problem, the expression used for evaluation would be 1/4 divided by 1/5. D is incorrect because, like B, the evaluation expression would be 1/4 divided by 1/5.

Your final answer: Because C is the only problem that gives us a corresponding expression to the initial expression, C is the correct answer. If you need extra help, let me know and I will gladly assist you.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(A)length of a stamp=1/5foot

wide of a stamp=1/4foot

area of the stamp=?

area of the stamp=length of a stamp *wide of a stamp

                              =1/5*1/4

(B)an area of the room=1/4  square meter

width of the room=1/5meter

length of the room=?

an area of the room=width of the room*length of the room

1/4                              =1/5                          *  length of the room

1/4                              = length of the room/5                

5/4                             =length of the room

length of the room   =5/4=1 1/4

(C)the area of the canvas=1/5square yard

width of the canvas=1/4 yard

length of the canvas=?

an area of the  canvas=width of the  canvas*length of the  canvas

1/5                                = width of the  canvas*1/4

1/5                                 = width of the  canvas/4

4/5                                =width of the  canvas

width of the  canvas=   4/5

(D)length of the  rectangular course=1/5mile

Answer:

[tex]-x + 9[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

We want to combine any like terms and distribute the signs properly to the terms in the parentheses.

First, remove the parentheses by distributing the signs:

[tex]-(2x - 1) + 3(x + 4) - 2(x + 2)[/tex][tex]-(2x) - (-1) + 3(x) + 3(4) - 2(x) - 2(2)[/tex]

Remember that negative times negative is positive
[tex]-2x + 1 + 3x + 12 - 2x - 4[/tex][tex]-2x + 3x - 2x + 1 + 12 - 4[/tex][tex]-x + 9[/tex]

The simplified form is [tex]-x + 9[/tex].

Another way to think about the negative sign is by replacing it with -1, so essentially you are multiplying the whole parentheses by -1.

-(2x-1)+3(x+4)-2(x+2)-2x+1+3x+12-2x-4-4x+3x+1+8-x+9

how much will you have to pay back in total if you borrowed $400 from the bank for a year at 12%

Answers

1) figure out interest amount

400x.12= 48

2) add interest and loan amount

400+48= 448

You would have to pay back $448 in total after one year.

What is the amount on the loan?

The simple interest formula can be expressed as;

I = P × r × t

Where I is interest, P is principal, r is interest rate and t is time.

Given the parameters:

Principal P = $400 (the initial loan amount)

Rate r = 12% = 12/100 = 0.12

Time t = 1 year

Interest = ?

To determine the interest, we can use the above formula for simple interest:

I = P × r × t

Interest = $400 × 0.12 × 1

Interest = $48

Money to be paid back will be:

Amount = Principal + Interest

Amount = $400 + $48

Amount = $448

Therefore, the accrued amount to be paid is $448.

What is the total amount due after 6 months on an initial loan of $1,400 at 12.5% annual interest.

Answers

Answer:  $1487.50

Step-by-step explanation:

hey there again!

Facts:

Principal (starting amount): $1,400

Annual interest rate: 12.5% of the principal. Whenever you get an annual interest rate as a percentage, its always that percentage of the starting amount.

Time given: 6 months, 1/2 a year

the question asks "total amount due' in 6 months. Basically, we want to know how much they will have in their account after 6 months.

Step 1: Find how much interest he will get in 6 months as a percentage.

6 months is 1/2 of a year, so find 1/2 of 12.5

1/2 of 12.5

1/2 x 12.5

0.5 x 12.5

6.25%

Step 2: Find how much interest he gets, but as a number.

Principal: $1400

6.25% of 1400= $87.50

Step 3: Find the total amount of money he will have after 6 months.

he starts with 1400, and gets an additional $87.50 added to his account after 6 months. How much does he have now?

To answer this, add to find the total:

87.50+1400= $1487.50

The answer is 1487.50 :)

Answers

Answer: There is 5 non blue sock in Josh's drawer

Step-by-step explanation:

The denominator shows the total of nonblue and blue socks. So there are 7 non-blue and blue socks in the drawer after he removes 3 non blue socks.To find how many non-blue where in the drawer originally you need to find how many non blue are in the draw after removing the three. So you subtract 7 from 5 which gives you 2. So there are 2 non-blue socks in the drawer after removing the three. Now you need to find how many non-blue were there before he removed the three. So add the 3 non blue socks that he removed to the two that were there after which gives you five.

there are 5 non blue socks
