anonymous · Answer

i would find the percentage of how many times he makes a strike...
i think the answer is 0.09
but i am not the best at probability

trantom · Answer

You would need to make a fraction of 18/50 which can be simplified to 9/25 and therefore the experimental probability is 9/25

trantom · Answer

then make the fraction into a decimal, 9/25=0.36

trantom · Answer

sierraabel I don't think 0.09 is right...

thanks both of you

calculusxy · Answer

thanks for your testimonial I will of course ask

anonymous · Answer

so you just divide 9/25 =0.36 
well i guess like i said im not the best at probability
