Suppose an NBA basketball player shooting an uncontested 2-point shot will make the basket with probability 0.6. How- ever, if you foul t he shooter, t he shot 'vill be missed, but t'vo free thro,vs will be a'varded. Each free thro'v is an independent Bernoulli trial 'vith success probability p. Based on the expected number of points the shooter 'vill score, for what values of p may it be desirable to foul the shooter?
Answer:
0.06
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation of the value of p is shown below;
P in the case (2 points if not fouled) = 0.6
Now Expected points if not fouled is
= 0.6 × 2
= 1.2
Now Expected points from free throw is
0 × (1-p)^2 + 1 × 2p(1-p) + 2 × p^2 = 2p
As we can see that 2p would be lower tha 1.2 in order to make a foul on shooter that represent all values of p<0.06 would be considered to foul in the shooter

Find the area of this triangle,
Round to the nearest tenth.
4 ft
37
10 ft
[? ] ft2
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello There!
When we are given two side lengths and the included angle we use this formula to solve for the area
[tex]A=\frac{1}{2} absin(C)[/tex]
where a and b = the side lengths and c = the included angle
The triangle gives us the following information
side length - 10 ft
side length - 4 ft
included angle - 37
Given this information we plug it into the formula
[tex]A=\frac{1}{2} 4*10sin(37)\\10*4=40\\40sin(37)=24.07260093\\\frac{24.07260093}{2} =12.03630046[/tex]
Finally we round to the nearest tenth and get that the area of the triangle is 12ft²
Which expression is equivalent to 5(4x +3)-2x?
A- 18x+15 B- 18x+3 C- 7x+3 D- 2x+8
Answer:
A. 18x + 15
Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem, we will simply simplify the given expression:
5(4x + 3) - 2x
= 5*4x + 5*3 - 2x
= 20x + 15 - 2x
= 20x - 2x + 15
= 18x + 15

help please ! solve for y and simplify the answer
Answer:
y = 11.5
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{6}{5} = \frac{9}{y-4}[/tex]
We are solving for y. Currently, y is in the denominator. We want it in the numerator so we will multiply the whole binomial (y - 4) to both sides.
[tex](\frac{y-4}{1} )\frac{6}{5} = \frac{9}{y-4}(\frac{y -4}{1})[/tex]
On the right side, (y - 4) cancels out leaving us with 9.
On the left side, we want to distribute the 6 in the numerator across the parentheses. Also multiply the denominators together.
[tex](\frac{6y - 24}{5}) = 9[/tex]
Now we want to continue to isolate y.
Multiply both sides by 5 to get rid of the denominator.
[tex]6y - 24 = 45[/tex]
Add 24 to both sides.
[tex]6y = 69[/tex]
Divide both sides by 6.
[tex]y = 11.5[/tex]
This is your answer.
Let's check it by plugging y = 11.5 back into the original equation.
[tex]\frac{6}{5} = \frac{9}{11.5-4}[/tex]
Simplify.
[tex]\frac{6}{5} = \frac{9}{7.5}[/tex]
Divide.
[tex]1.2 = 1.2[/tex]
Your answer is correct.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
y = 11.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable, y. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.
PEMDAS is the order of operation, and stands for:
Parenthesis
Exponents (& Roots)
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction
~
First, cross-multiply. Multiply 5 and y - 4 to both sides of the equation:
[tex](y - 4) * (5) * \frac{6}{5} = \frac{9}{y - 4} * (y - 4) * (5)[/tex]
[tex]6(y - 4) = 9 * 5\\6(y - 4) = 45[/tex]
Next, isolate the variable, y. First, divide 6 from both sides of the equation:
[tex]\frac{6(y - 4)}{6} = \frac{45}{6} \\y - 4 = \frac{45}{6} \\y - 4 = 7.5\\[/tex]
Then, add 4 to both sides of the equation:
[tex]y - 4 = 7.5\\y - 4 (+4) = 7.5 (+4)\\y = 7.5 + 4\\y = 11.5[/tex]
y = 11.5 is your answer.

What is an Equation?
Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.
It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides.
Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.
Given data ,
The total amount the bucket of water can hold = 5 gallons
The percentage of bucket that is full = 45 %
So ,
The amount of bucket of water that is full is =
percentage of bucket that is full x total amount the bucket of water can hold
The amount of bucket of water that is full is = ( 45 / 100 ) x 5
= 0.45 x 5
= 2.25 gallons
Hence , the amount of water that the bucket is filled is 2.25 gallons

Dean made a triangular wall shelf.
The sides of the triangle measure
14 inches, 8 inches and 8 inches.
Is the shelf a right triangle?
Explain.
Answer:
The shelf is not a right triangle
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Sides = 14, 8, 8[/tex]
Required
Determine if it is a right triangle
To do this, we make use of Pythagoras theorem which implies that; the square of the longest side = the sum of the square of the two other sides.
So, we have:
[tex]14^2 = 8^2 + 8^2[/tex]
Evaluate all squares
[tex]196 = 64 + 64[/tex]
[tex]196 = 128[/tex]
The above is not true because:
[tex]196 \ne 128[/tex]
Hence, the shelf is not a right triangle
Lauren bought 20 oz of sliced ham. She used 3/4 of the ham to make sandwiches for her friends. She used 1/5 of the ham in an omelet. How many ounces of ham were left?
Answer:
19 oz
Step-by-step explanation:
Lauren bought 20 ounces of sliced ham, out of which she used three-fourth of the ham to make sandwiches for her friends and one fifth of the ham in an omelette. We are to find the ounces of ham that were left. So, total ounces of ham that were used = 15 + 4 = 19 ounces.
