In basketball, Shaquille makes 40% of his free throw attempts. He goes to the free throw line to shoot one-and-one (if he makes the first shot, he gets to shoot one more). He scores 1 point per free throw. What is the expected value of the number of points he will score? 0. 064 0. 24 0. 56 0. 80.

Answers

Answer 1

Shaqquille's expected value is 0.56 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Situations:

1) he makes 1st shot + he makes 2nd shot

P(A) = 0.4 · 0.4 = 0.16  ( 16 % )

2) he makes 1 st shot + he misses 2nd shot

P(B) = 0.4 · 0.6 = 0.24   ( 24 % )

3) he misses 1st shot and he has no more attempts

P (C) = 0.6 ( 60 %)

0.16 · 2 + 0.24 · 1 + 0.6 · 0 = 0.32 + 0.34 = 0.56

The expected value is 0.56 points.

Joe's total bill for pizza and soft drinks was $27.50. He left a
20% tip for their server. How much tip did he leave?

Answers

Answer:

$5.50

Step-by-step explanation:

100% of the total bill was $27.50

10% will be 100% divided by 10

10% = $27.50 ÷ 10

10% = $2.75

20% will be double 10%

20% = £2.75 × 2

20% = $5.50

A container built for transatlantic shipping is constructed in the shape of a right rectangular prism. Its dimensions are 7.5 ft by 11.5 ft by 3 ft. If the container is entirely full and, on average, its contents weigh 0.15 pounds per cubic foot, find the total weight of the contents. Round your answer to the nearest pound if necessary.

Answers

Considering the definition of right rectangular prism and its volume,  the total weight of the contents is 38.81 pounds.

Right rectangular prism

A right rectangular prism (or cuboid) is a polyhedron whose surface is formed by two equal and parallel rectangles called bases and by four lateral faces that are also parallel rectangles and equal two to two.

Volume of right rectangular prism

To calculate the volume of the rectangular prism, it is necessary to find the product of its dimensions, or of the three edges that converge at a certain vertex.

That is, to calculate the volume of a rectangular prism, multiply its 3 dimensions: length×width×height.

Volume of the container

In this case, you know that:

the dimensions of the container built are 7.5 ft by 11.5 ft by 3 ft. the container is entirely full and, on average, its contents weigh 0.15 pounds per cubic foot.

So, the volume of the container is calculated as:

7.5 ft× 11.5 ft× 3 ft= 258.75 ft³

Then, the total weight of the contents is calculated as:

258.75 ft³×  0.15 pounds per cubic foot= 38.8125 pounds≅ 38.81 pounds

Finally, the total weight of the contents is 38.81 pounds.

Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

(3x + 28) + (5x + 52) + ( 2x - 10) = 180

(3x + 5x + 2x) + (28 + 52 - 10) = 180

10x + 70 = 180

10x = 180 - 70

10x = 110

x = 11

Answer:

x= 11

Step-by-step explanation:

(3x + 5x) + (5x+52) + (2x-10)= 180 (sum of anglea in a triangle)

10x+80-10= 180

10x+70=180

10x=180-70

10x=110

x=110÷10

Answers

Answer:

l = 32.5 units, w= 27.5 units, A = 893.75 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

width is w

length is l = 5+w

P = 2( l+w) , substitute l for 5+w

P = 2(5+w+w)

P = 2(5+2w)

P = 10 +4w

P = 120

10 +4w = 120

4w = 120-10

4w = 110

w= 110/4

w= 27.5 units

l = 5+w = 5+ 27.5 = 32.5 units

A = l*w = 27.5 * 32.5 = 893.75 units ²

If chicken costs 10¢ per ounce and grain costs 1¢ per ounce, how many ounces of each should
Ruff use in each bag of dog food to minimize cost?

Answers

The cost of the chicken and the grain are illustrations of linear programming

The minimized cost is 12¢

How to determine the minimized cost

Represent the number of chicken with x and the number of grain with y.

So, the objective function is

Min Z = 10x + y

The constraints are not given.

So, the function cannot be minimized.

However, assume the minimum feasible values of x and y are (1,2), the minimized cost would be:

Z = 10  * 1 +  2

Z = 12

Hence, the minimized cost is 12¢

The length of a rectangle is 2 centimeters longer than its width.
If the perimeter of the rectangle is 64 centimeters, find its length and width.

Answers

Answer: 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the width = w.

Then, the length of the length is w + 2.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 2*length + 2*width.

Therefore, 2*(w+2) + 2*w = 64

2w + 4 + 2w = 64

4w + 4 = 64

4w = 60

The best prediction of the average annual salary of a professional football player in 2025 is $4,166,000

Exponential function

An exponential function is in the form:

y = abˣ

Where y,x are variables, a is the initial value of y and b is the multiplication factor.

Let y represent the average annual salary, x years since 2000, hence, from table:

At (2000, 1116000), that is (0, 1116000):

1116000 = ab⁰  

a = 1116000

At (20, 3193000):

3193000 = 1116000(b)²⁰

b = 1.05

The salary in 2025 ( x = 25) is:

y = 1116000(1.05)²⁵ = 4152719.5
