20. Mackenzie has made 21 of her last 30 free throws which is an average of 70%.
A. Write a function to model Mackenzie's rate of success if she makes x more
consecutive free throws.


Sagot :

Answer:  Either 70% or S=0.7x

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm unclear as to what the question really wants.  A "rate of success" is simply an expected percentage of future shots that will score on a free throw.  Since the only statistic we are given is the 70%, it would seem that would also be the rate of success for future shots.

If the question is seeking the actual number of successful free throws, S, in the next x shots, the expression would be:

S = 0.70x
