Answer:
P(made 2nd attempt|made 1st attempt)=P(made 2nd attempt)
Step-by-step explanation:
Here given that a basketball player that shoots 80% from the free throw line attempts two free throws.
If x is the no of shoots he makes (say) then we find that each throw is independent of the other.
In other words, because he made successful first attempt, his chances for second attempt will not change
Prob for success in each attempt remains the same as 0.80
Hence I throw is independent of II throw.
When A and B are independent,then we have
P(A/B) = P(A)
Hence answer is
P(made 2nd attempt|made 1st attempt)=P(made 2nd attempt)
Answer:
1/4 of the credit
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem statement tells you n=5. Putting that into the expression for lost credit, you get ...
1/(5-1) = 1/4
of the credit is lost for a question with 1 wrong answer.
You will lose 1/4 of the credit.
Are you sure you didn’t miss anything while writing the question?
Cause we have nothing to go off. Everybody types differently so there is no way for us to say how long he typed for, unless we were given aprox how many words he wrote in a minute or something
