The probability that the basketball player misses at most one basket is 0.077 as it is a mutually exclusive event.
what are mutually exclusive events in probability?Two events are said to be mutually exclusive if they cannot occur at the same time or simultaneously. This implies they are disjoint events and the probability of both events occurring at the same time will be zero.
Let us represent the probability of the player getting a basket to be p(y) and that of not getting a basket to be p(x)
then p(y)=40%=40/100=2/5
p(x)=1-(2/5)=3/5
The probability the player misses at most one basket implies his highest miss is one out of the five shots he took
So, the probability that he missed the:
1st shot= (3/5)×(2/5)×(2/5)×(2/5)×(2/5)=48/3125
2nd shot= (2/5)×(3/5)×(2/5)×(2/5)×(2/5)=48/3125
3rd shot= (2/5)×(2/5)×(3/5)×(2/5)×(2/5)=48/3125
4th shot= (2/5)×(2/5)×(2/5)×(3/5)×(2/5)=48/3125
5th shot= (2/5)×(2/5)×(2/5)×(2/5)×(3/5)=48/3125
The probability that he misses at most one basket= (48/3125)+(48/3125)+(48/3125)+(48/3125)+(48/3125)+(48/3125)= 249/3125=0.0768.
Finally, from the workings the probability that the player misses at most one basket is 0.077 rounded up to three decimals

How many tickets should be sold at each price for a sellout performance to generate a total revenue
of $168,000?
The number of tickets for sale at $24 should be ?
The number of tickets which should be sold to $24 and $40 are 4500 and 1500 respectively.
Given, A 6000-seat theater has tickets for sale at $24 and $40.
How many tickets should be sold at each price for a sellout performance to generate a total revenue of $168,000 = ?
first, assign variables:
X = # of $24 tickets, Y = # or $40 tickets
write equations based on the data presented:
"6000 seat theater..."
X + Y = 6000 ...equation 1
"total revenue of 168,000"
The revenue from each type of ticket is the cost times the number sold, so:
24X + 40Y = 168,000 .....equation 2
from equation 1:
X = 6000 - Y
substitute this into equation 2: (replace X with 6000-Y)
24 (6000 - Y) + 40Y = 168,000
expand:
144,000 -24Y + 40Y = 168,000
rearrange and simplify:
16Y = 168,000 - 144,000
y = 24000/16
Y = 1500
from equation 1:
X = 6000 - 1500
X = 4500
hence the number of tickets for sale at $24 should be 4500.

In △ABC, m∠A=45°. The altitude divides side AB into two parts of 20 and 21 units. Find BC.
Answer:
29 units
Step-by-step explanation:
BC is a side of ACB, which is a 45 45 90 triangle. BC = AB/sqrt2
If In △ABC, m∠A=45°. The altitude divides side AB into two parts of 20 and 21 units. Then BC is 29 units
What is Trigonometry?Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that studies relationships between side lengths and angles of triangles.
Given,
In △ABC, m∠A=45°. The altitude divides side AB into two parts of 20 and 21 units.
We need to find BC
In triangle ACD,
tan 45° = CD/AD
CD = tan 45° x AD
= 1 x 20= 20 units
In triangle CDB,
tanФ = CD/BD
Ф = tan⁻¹(CD/BD)
= tan⁻¹(20/21)
= 43.6°
so, sin 43.6° = CD/BC
BC = CD/sin 43.6°
= 20/0.689
= 29 units
Hence the length of BC will be 29 units.

The behavior of any polynomial function is determined by the exponent and the signal of the first term of the function.
In the case of f(x), the leading term is negative, and its expoent is odd. Therefore, when x is negative, the leading term will be positive and, when x is positive, the leading term is negative.
Therefore, we have:

Derivative and Maximum Value of a Function
The critical points of a function are those where the first derivative is zero or does not exist.
Out of those points, we may find local maxima or minima or none of them.
One example of a function with a derivative that does not exist is:
[tex]y=-x^{\frac{2}{3}}[/tex]This function has a local maximum at x=0 where the derivative does not exist.

Answer
(-12, -8) after R270°.D¼ becomes (-2, 3)
Explanation
The first operation represented by R270° indicates a rotation of 270° counterclockwise about the origin.
When a rotation of 270° counterclockwise about the origin is done on some coordinate, A (x, y), it transforms this coordinates into A' (y, -x). That is, we switch y and x, then add negative sign to x.
Then, the second operation, D¼ represents a dilation of the coordinate about the origin by a scale factor of ¼ given.
The coordinates to start with is (-12, -8)
R270° changes A (x, y) into A' (y, -x)
So,
(-12, -8) = (-8, 12)
Then, the second operation dilates the new coordinates obtained after the first operation by ¼
D¼ changes A (x, y) into A' (¼x, ¼y)
So,
(-8, 12) = [¼(-8), ¼(12)] = (-2, 3)

I absolutely dont understand Division Property of Equality please help
We have the following equation.
[tex]20,000-1.8939m=10,000[/tex]Where m is the number of feet in a mile.
Let us subtract 20,000 from both sides of the equation then simplify
[tex]\begin{gathered} -20,000+20,000-1.8939m=10,000-20,000 \\ -1.8939m=-10,000 \end{gathered}[/tex]The negative sign cancels out and the equation becomes
[tex]\text{1}.8939m=10,000[/tex]Finally, we can apply the Division Property of Equality which states that when we divide both sides of the equation with same number then the equation remains valid.
Let us divide both sides of the equation by 1.8939 then simplify
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{1.8939m}{1.8939}=\frac{10,000}{1.8939} \\ m=\frac{10,000}{1.8939} \\ m\approx5280 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, there are 5280 feet in a mile (rounded to nearest whole number)
Factoring
64v^4-225w^10
I come up with
(8v^2+15w^2)(8v^2-15w^5) can I simplify it?
Your answer can't be simplified but it's also slightly incorrect. No worries!
You can simplify (64v^4 - 225w^10) by applying the difference of squares --> a^2 - b^2 = (a + b)(a - b)
Here, (64v^4) is a^2, and (225w^10) is b^2.
[tex]\sqrt{64v^4 }[/tex] = a = 8v^2
[tex]\sqrt{225w^{10} }[/tex] = b = 15w^5
Substitute the values:
(8v^2 + 15w^5)(8v^2 - 15w^5)
Therefore, the factorization of [tex]64x^{4} -225w^{10}[/tex] is:
[tex](8v^{2} + 15w^5)(8v^2-15w^5)[/tex]
The factorization is already the simplest. It can't be simplified further.

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{36}{3}=12 \\ \frac{96}{8}=12 \\ \frac{228}{19}=12 \end{gathered}[/tex]Now as the ratios are constant it mean the variation is linear and the relationship is proportional.
Thus the model equation can be determine as,
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{S}{P}=12 \\ S=12P \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, the above equation gives the required model equation.

Can 37° 111° and 32° be measurements of a triangle?
Answer
The angles given can easily be the measurements of one triangle because they sum up to give 180°.
Explanation
The sum of angles in a triangle is known to be 180°
So, for the given angles to be to belong to one triangle, the sum of all the angles must be equal to 180°
So, we check by adding them
37° + 111° + 32° = 180°

You have 4/5 of a pizza left over from your pool party. If you sent 4/9 of the leftover pizza home with your friends how much of the pizza do you have left in the box
If I sent 4/9 of the leftover pizza home with your friends the pizza do I have left in the box is 16/45.
What is pizza?
Pizza is an Italian food consisting of a typically flat, spherical foundation composed of leavened wheat dough that is topped with cheese, tomatoes, and frequently a number of additional toppings. Following that, the pizza is baked at a high temperature, typically in a wood-fired oven. A small pizza is also known as a pizzetta. A pizza maker is referred to as a pizzaiolo.
To get the quantity of the leftover pizza, we need to subtract the pizza sent by me to home from the total pizza I had in my lunch box.
So,
Pizza I have left = Pizza in lunch box - Pizza I have sent
Pizza I have left = 4/5 - 4/9
Pizza I have left = (4(9) - 4(5))/45
Therefore, Pizza I have left is 16/45.
