-115

Using the arithmetic formula, your equation appears as so:

an = 15 + (27 - 1) - 5

15 being the first number in the sequence, 27 being the number you're trying to find, and -5 being the common difference.

This will give you the answer of -115.

Hope this helps!

During the 2015-16 NBA season, J.J. Redick of the Los Angeles Clippers had a free throw shooting percentage of 0.901 . Assume th
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer: 0.5898

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :  J.J. Redick of the Los Angeles Clippers had a free throw shooting percentage of 0.901 .

We assume that,

The probability that .J. Redick makes any given free throw =0.901  (1)

Free throws are independent.

So it is a binomial distribution .

Using binomial probability formula, the probability of getting success in x trials :

P(X=x)^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}

, where n= total trials

p= probability of getting in each trial.

Let x be binomial variable that represents the number of a=makes.

n= 14

p= 0.901     (from (1))

The probability that he makes at least 13 of them will be :-

P(x\geq13)=P(x=13)+P(x=14)

=^{14}C_{13}(0.901)^{13}(1-0.901)^1+^{14}C_{14}(0.901)^{14}(1-0.901)^0\\\\=(14)(0.901)^{13}(0.099)+(1)(0.901)^{14}\ \ [\because\ ^nC_n=1\ \&\ ^nC_{n-1}=n ]\\\\\approx0.3574+0.2324=0.5898

∴ The required probability = 0.5898

E varies directly with the square root of C. If E=40 when C=25, find: C when E = 10.4
sukhopar [10]

Answer: C = 1.69

Step-by-step explanation:

E is proportional to √C

To remove proportionality, introduce a constant (k).

E = k × √C

From question,

E = 40 and C = 25

So,

40 = k ×√25

40 = k × 5

k = 8

Now,

C = ?

E = 10.4

k = 8

E = k × √C

10.4 = 8 × √C

10.4 / 8 = √C

( 10.4 / 8 ) ^ 2 = C

C = 1.69
