Question

On his recent free-throw attempts, Lamar made 4 shots and missed 6 shots. Considering this
data, how many of his next 20 free-throw attempts would you expect Lamar to miss?

Answer 1

Answer:

12 free throw attempts

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find what percent of free throw attempts he misses:

6/10

= 0.6

So, he misses 60% of the time. Multiply 20 by 0.6 to find how many you would expect Lamar to miss out of 20 attempts:

20(0.6)

= 12

So, you would expect Lamar to miss 12 free throw attempts
