1 as you follow your favorite nba basketball teams


1. As you follow your favorite NBA basketball team's statistics, you notice the point guard is shooting 35% from behind the three-point line (for his overall career up this point). Assuming he is given the ball twice near the end of a game and shoots with that same career success rate, what is the probability that he will make at least one three-point shot when given the two chances?

2. Which of the following statements best represents the notion of empirical probability

  • To roll two dice to get two 6's for a free roll in a board game, the probability is 1 out of 36.
  • It may be just a feeling, but it seems like there is a low probability I'm going to make the team.
  • If you toss a fair coin 100 times, we assume your ratio of heads to tails is roughly 50-50.
  • During the last two decades, crash data showed that 72% of the crashes in the US involved young drivers between the ages of 16 and 19. Therefore, the probability of the next crash being caused by a young driver between the ages of 16 and 19 is about 72%.
