Marcy makes 15 of 20 free throws at basketball practice. What is the probability that she will miss her free throw? Possible answers are A. 1/2 B. 3/4 C.2/5. D. 1/4

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  D.  1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to know the probability Marcy will miss a free throw, given that she makes 15 of 20.

Probability

We assume Marcy's record at practice is typical of her performance. It tells us that she makes 15/20 = 3/4 of the free throws she takes. That means she misses 1 -3/4 = 1/4 of the free throws.

The probability she will miss her free throw is 1/4.

__

Additional comment

Many assumptions are involved in this calculation. One of them is that her next throw is unaffected by her last throw. It is a rare player for whom that is the case.

Donna travels 70 miles at an average speed of 40 mph. she then travels a further 30 miles. the average speed for the entire journey is 44 mph. assuming donna didn't stop, what was her average speed for the final 30 miles to 2 dp?

Answers

If donna didn't stop, her average speed for the final 30 miles to 2 dp is; 57.39 mph

How to Calculate Average Speed?

We are given;

Distance travelled by Donna = 70 miles

Average Speed of Donna = 40 mph

Additional Distance travelled = 30 miles

Average speed for entire journey = 44 mph

We know that;

time = distance/speed

Thus

Total time = (70 + 30)/44

Total time = 100/44 h

Time 1 = 70/40 = 7/4 hr

Time 2 = 30/v

Thus;

30/v + 7/4 = 100/44

A circle labeled T includes all points except for 3 and 70. Point 3 and 70 is circled and labeled as R.


Part A: What is the group of points labeled T called? What is the point labeled R called? Give a possible reason for the presence of point R. (3 points)

Part B: Describe the association between the number of hours practiced each week and the number of pieces a piano student can play. (2 points)

Answers

Part A

The group of points labeled "T" can be thought of as the main cluster of points. Your teacher might have given another name for it, but this is how I think about it. All of these points are very close to a straight line.

The point R is known as an outlier. It is fairly far from the main cluster, in that it's not near the regression line. You can think of the points in the main cluster as houses along/near a straight road. The outlier house is unfortunately far from that road.

One possible reason for point R is that the student is very talented and can pick up music really easy, thereby not needing that much practice. Another reason is that the student already had tons of prior practice and experience, so they don't need as much practice currently.

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

Part B

We have a strong positive linear association with the main cluster of data points. As mentioned earlier, a straight line is very close to these points. The closer they are to the same straight line, the stronger the correlation.

We have positive correlation because as x goes up, so does y. The variables increase together. Negative correlation happens when x and y go in opposite directions (one goes up, the other goes down).

The outlier point R pulls on the regression line to make it slightly not near the main cluster. The line tries its best to be near all of the points, and that includes the outlier. In some situations, the outlier is ignored and regression is done on the other set of points.

As you can probably guess, the outlier dilutes the strength of the correlation. The further the outlier, the weaker the correlation gets.

Answer:

Here you go!

Step-by-step explanation:

A) The group of points labeled T called cluster. The point labeled R called outlier. Student because of being proficient on the piano before practice was measured.

B) A positive correlation is a relationship between two variables that tend to move in the same direction

deviation of 10. he is about to take exam b that has a mean of 650 and a standard
deviation of 25. how well must aiden score on exam b in order to do equivalently
well as he did on exam a? assume that scores on each exam are normally distributed.

Answers

Using the normal distribution, it is found that he needs a score of 605 in exam b in order to do equivalently well as he did on exam a.

Normal Probability Distribution

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean. Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.

For the z-score for exam a, we have that the parameters are given as follows:

[tex]X = 22, \mu = 40, \sigma = 10[/tex]

Hence:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{22 - 40}{10}[/tex]

Z = -1.8.

Then, for the equivalent grade X in exam B, we have that:

[tex]Z = -1.8, \mu = 650, \sigma = 25[/tex]

Then:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]-1.8 = \frac{X - 650}{25}[/tex]

X - 650 = -1.8 x 25

X = 605.

Therefore, the angles are as follows;

Answers

SOLUTION:

Let the length of the room = L = 12m

width of the room = b = 8m

Height of the room = h = 4m

• Area of the four walls of the room = Perimeter of the base x Height of the room.

[tex] = 2(l + b) \times h = 2(12 + 8) \times 4[/tex]

[tex] = 2 \times 20 \times 4 = 160 {m}^{2} [/tex]

Cost of white washing per m² = ₹5

Hence , the total cost of white washing four walls of the room ;-

₹ ( 160 x 5 ) = ₹ 800

Area of ceiling is 12 x 8 = 96m².

Cost of white washing the ceiling.

₹ (96 x 5 ) = ₹ 480.

So , the total cost of white washing ;

₹ ( 800 + 480 ) = ₹ 1280 .
