Respuesta :

we are given

basketball player Chauncey Billups of the Detroit Pistons makes free throw shots 88% of the time

so, probability of making shot is

=88%

so, p=0.88

To find the probability of missing first shot and making the second shot

so, we can use formula

probability = p(1-p)

now, we can plug values

we get

[tex]probability=0.88(1-0.88)[/tex]

So, the probability that he misses his first shot and makes the second is 0.1056........Answer
