The probability that Gerald makes a three-point shot in basketball is 20%. For practice, Gerald will regularly shoot a series of these shots until he succeeds at one. He's curious how many shots it will typically take him
to get his first successful shot.
He simulated 40 trials of three-point shots where each shot had a 0.2 probability of being successful, and
in each trial, he counted how many shots it took to get the first successful shot. Here are his results:
0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16
# of shots taken
Use his results to estimate the probability that it takes 10 or fewer shots to get his first successful shot.
Give your answer as either a fraction or a decimal.
P(10 or fewer shots) -

Juliana says that she can use the patterns of equivalent ratios in the multiplication table below to write an infinite number of ratios that are equivalent to 6: 10. which statement explains whether juliana is correct? she is correct because she can multiply 6 and 10 by any number to form an equivalent ratio. she is correct because 6: 10 can be written as 1: 2 and there are an infinite number of ratios for 1: 2. she is not correct because the multiplication table does not include multiples of 10. she is not correct because 6: 10 is equivalent to 3: 5 and there are only 9 ratios in the multiplication table that are equivalent to 3: 5.
