Question 3, I give thanks and 5 stars :DJoshua has made 90% of the lay-up baskets he has attempted at basketball practice.

A. What is the probability that he will make the next three lay-up baskets he attempts? Express your answer as a decimal.


B. Write the equation you used to find this answer.

C. What does each piece of your equation represent?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: A. So you know that he has a 0.9 chance of getting the basket each individual time. So just do 0.9^3 (0.9x0.9x0.9) which comes out as 0.729.

B. Oops. 0.9^3

C. The 0.9 represents the chance of getting it in the basketball net. The "cubed" represents that he attempts the shot three times.

Hope I helped!

Move all like terms to one side:

-28-26>4x-4x

-54>0

-54 isn't greater than 0, so that means that there are no solutions.

Can someone put this in order

Answers

So in order to figure this out we need to know the formula for simple interest
In this case it is. 
I = p r t  (they are all multiplied by each other) 

p = "principle" or the starting amount of money
r = the rate or percentage
t = time (in years)
So lets figure it out in the order they give it to us. Then Put them least to greatest. 

So the first one is 
Investment at $3,000 at 16% simple interest for 2 years. 
We multiply them all together to get our interest. 
lets do the math:) 
16% = 0.16 
$3,000 x 0.16 x 2 = $960

Now lets do the second one.
Investment of $3,000 at 5% simple interest for 20 years. 
Lets multiply them all together. 
5% = 0.05 
$3,000 x 0.05 x 20 = $3,000

Now for our third one. 
Investment of $1,000 at 16% simple interest for 20 years 
Lets multiply them together. 
16% = 0.16 
$1,000 x 0.16 x 20 = $3,200

Now here is our answer ↓↓↓

Now to put these in order from least to greatest. 
1st.) Investment at $3,000 at 16% simple interest for 2 years. = $960
2nd.) 
Investment of $3,000 at 5% simple interest for 20 years.= $3,000
3rd.)Investment of $1,000 at 16% simple interest for 20 years.= $3,200

What percent of 128 is 32

Answers

We can set up a proportion.

32/128 = x/100

32 * 100 = 3200
128 * x = 128x.

Now we have 128x = 3200.

All we need to do is divide 3200 by 128, so 3200 / 128 = 25, so your answer is 25%.
