Identify the parameter n in the following binomial distribution
scenario. A basketball player has a 0.479probability of making a
free throw and a 0.521probability of missing. If the player shoots
17 free throws, we want to know the probability that he makes more
than 9 of them. (Consider made free throws as successes in the
binomial distribution.)
Do not include 'n=' in your answer.

Suppose a basketball player is an excellent free throw shooter and makes 91% of his free throws (i.e., he has a 91% chance of making a single free throw). Assume that free throw shots are independent of one another. Suppose this player shoots five free throws. Find the probability that he makes all five throws.
Identify the parameter p in the following binomial distribution scenario. The probability of buying a movie ticket with a popcorn coupon is 0.763, and the probability of buying a movie ticket without a popcorn coupon is 0.237. If you buy 16 movie tickets, we want to know the probability that more than 10 of the tickets have popcorn coupons. (Consider tickets with popcorn coupons as successes in the binomial distribution.)
Question 10 Identify the parameter p in the following binomial distribution scenario. The probability of buying a movie ticket with a popcorn coupon is 0.634, and the probability of buying a movie ticket without a popcorn coupon is 0.366. If you buy 16 movie tickets, we want to know the probability that more than 10 of the tickets have popcorn coupons. (Consider tickets with popcorn coupons as successes in the binomial distribution.)

In basketball, the top free throw shooters usually have a probability of about 0.80 of making any given free throw. Over the course of a season, one such player shoots 330 free throws. a) Find the mean and standard deviation of the probability distribution of the number of free throws he makes. (b) By the normal distribution approximation, within what range would the number of free throws made almost certainly fall? Why? (c) Within what range would the proportion made...
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.
Use the appropriate normal distribution to approximate the resulting binomial distribution ASK YOUR TEACHER A basketball player has a 80% chance of making a free throw (Assume that the throws are independent of each other.) What is the probability of her making 100 or more free throws (Round your answer to four decimal places.) 125 trials You may need to use the appropriate table in the Appendix of Tables to answer this question
In a national basketball association, the top free-throw shooters usually have probability of about 0.90 of making any given free throw. Complete parts a through c. a. During a game, one such player shot 10 free throws. Let X=number of free throws made. What must you assume in order for X to have a binomial distribution? A. It is assumed that the data are not binary. B.It is assumed that the data are binary, that probabilities of success for trials...
For the following question, use an appropriate normal distribution to approximate the resulting binomial distribution. Use the table in Appendix D or your calculator to find numerical values. A basketball player has a 80% chance of making a free throw. (Assume that the throws are independent of each other.) What is the probability of her making 6 or fewer free throws in 20 trials?
For the following question, use an appropriate normal distribution to approximate the re- sulting binomial distribution. Use the table in Appendix D or your calculator to find numerical values. A basketball player has a 80% chance of making a free throw. (Assume that the throws are independent of each other.) What is the probability of her making 6 or fewer free throws in 20 trials?
