Suppose that a basketball player has a 28.31% chance of making any shot they take. If they were to take 34 shots in a given game, we would of course expect them to make 28.31% of them, but what would be the standard deviation in the number of shots made?

(5 pts each) A basketball player is fouled while attempting a shot for 2 points. If they make the shot, they shoot one free throw for one additional point. If they miss the shot, they shoot two free throws for one point each. Suppose the player has a 20% chance of making the shot and a 65% chance of making each free throw. • (1) Draw a Tree Diagram for this experiment. • (2) What is the probability that the...

Donovan Mitchell is a basketball player who plays for the Utah Jazz. For the 2017-2018 year, Mitchell’s shooting percentage was 0.502. (This is 2 pointers only.) Thus, we can think of him as a machine that, on average makes, 50.2 % of his shots. (There is a lot of analysis to debunk things like “having a hot hand” or “being on a roll”.) On average, Mitchell takes 10 shots per game. a) Let X be the random variable that represents...
Suppose a basketball player is an excellent free throw (shots awarded when a player is fouled)...
Suppose a basketball player is an excellent free throw (shots awarded when a player is fouled) shooter and makes 80% of his free throws (or he has and 80% chance of making a single free throw). Assume that free throw shots are independent of one another. Suppose this player gets to shoot four free throws. Find the probability that he makes four consecutive free throws.

Need C-E
A basketball player attempts 22 shots from the field during a game. This player generally hits about 29% of these shots. (a) In order to use a binomial model for the number of made baskets, what assumptions are needed in this example? Are they reasonable? (b) How many baskets should you expect this player to make in the game? (c) If the player hits more than 11 shots (12, 13, 14, or 22), should you be surprised? (d)...

5. Your university star basketball player is having a difficult night of free throws. His long range probability of making free throws is 80%, however, tonight he only made 2 out of 4 shots. Fans think he was nervous. Let's use simulation to see how likely it is for him to only make 2 out of 4 shots. Random Assignment: Let numbers 0-7 represent "Making the Shot Let numbers 8, 9 represent "Missing the Shot" Use the random number generator...
