12. The probability a basketball player making a free-throw
is .84, what are the odds against making a free-throw?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The odds against making a free throw are: 0.1905 or 0.16:0.84

Step-by-step explanation:

The odds can be categorized into two categories

Odds-againstOdds-in favour

The odds against is the ratio of probability of failure to probability of success.

Given

Probability of making a free throw = P = 0.84

Probability of not making a free throw = Q = 1-P = 1-0.84 = 0.16

The formula for odds-against is:

[tex]Odds-against = \frac{0.16}{0.84}\\= 0.19047..\\=0.1905[/tex]

Hence,

The odds against making a free throw are: 0.1905 or 0.16:0.84

the difference is seven and the next answer should be 25 because 18+7=25

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the answer to this question you must find the rule that the sequence goes by and then add.

You can see that it adds seven in order for it to reach four and then add's seven again to reach eleven meaning the rule of this sequence is plus seven.

So now just add:

Answers

Answer:

DE = 81

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides of a rhombus are congruent , thus

9z = z + 72 ( subtract z from both sides )

8z = 72 ( divide both sides by 8 )

z = 9

Then

BC = 9z = 9 × 9 = 81

Since the sides are congruent, then DE = 81

[tex]6z + 7 = 8z - 9[/tex]

[tex]8z - 9 = 6z + 7[/tex]

Add sides 9

[tex]8z = 6z + 16[/tex]

Subtract sides 6z

[tex] - 6z + 8z = - 6z + 6z + 16[/tex]

Use the zero product property to find the solutions below

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. (x - 3)(x + 7) = 0

  By zero product property,

  (x - 3) = 0 ⇒ x = 3

  (x + 7) = 0 ⇒ x = -7

2. (2x + 6)(x - 7) = 0

   2(x + 3)(x - 7) = 0

   By zero product property,

   (x + 3) = 0 ⇒ x = -3

   (x - 7) = 0 ⇒ x = 7

3). (4x - 2)(x + 4) = 0

   2(2x - 1)(x + 4) = 0

   (2x - 1) = 0 ⇒ x = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

   (x + 4) = 0 ⇒ x = -4

Solve by factorization

8+7x-x^2=0

Answers

Answer:

x = - 1, x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

8 + 7x - x² = 0 ( multiply through by - 1 and arrange into standard form )

x² - 7x - 8 = 0 ← in standard form

(x - 8)(x + 1) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = - 1

x - 8 = 0 ⇒ x = 8

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (-1, 4) and is perpendicular to the line x - 6 y equals 12

Answers

Answer:

y = -6x - 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 6y = 12

Gradient = 1/6

since the line is perpendicular to x - 6y = 12

its gradient will be -6.

hence its equation will also be:

y - 4 = -6(x - (-1))

y - 4 = -6x -6

y = -6x -2

At the beginning of the season, Jamie pays full price for a ticket to see the Panthers, her favorite baseball team. the panthers currently have 33 wins and 31 losses. A. Represent the total change in the cost of a ticket given their losses B.What is the cost of a ticket for the nest game they play. (A or B question)

Answers

Answer: a. -$12.71

b. $36.93

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

No of loss = 31

No of wins = 33

•Had to complete the question first,

Given that the price of the ticket at the beginning of the season = $49.64

the ticket price decrease = $0.41 for every loss

Solution:

a) The cost of the ticket decreases by $0.41 for every game loss.

Change in cost = -$0.41 × number of losses

= -$0.41 × 31

= -$12.71

b) The cost of a ticket for the next game given they have 31 losses is:

Cost of ticket = Initial cost of ticket + change in cost

= $49.64 - $12.71

= $36.93

Solve this system of equations, then determine what y equals.

x + 5y= 7

2x + 4y = -4

Answers

Answer:

y = 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 5y = 7

x = 7 - 5y

Substitute x for 7 - 5y in the second equation.

2 ( 7 - 5y ) + 4y = -4

14 - 10y + 4y = -4

14 - 6y = -4

6y = 14 + 4

6y = 18

y = 3.

Hope this helped!

Answer:

y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 5y = 7

Subtract 5y from both sides;

x = -5y + 7

Substitute x into the equation;

2x + 4y = -4

2(-5y + 7) + 4y = -4

Distribute;

-10y + 14 + 4y = -4

-6y + 14 = -4

Subtract 14 from both sides;

-6y = -18

Divide both sides by -6

y = 3

Substitute y;

x + 5y = 7

x + 5(3) = 7

x + 15 = 7

Subtract 15 from both sides;

x = -8
