John hits 6 out of 15 free throw attempts. What percentage of free throws did he miss?

40%

Step-by-step explanation:

you woulde take the 6 he made and devide that by the 15 he mist to get 0.4. and to fined percentege you move the deximal to the right 2 times.

this also makes him a terible basketball player.

the answer   is 200

step-by-step explanation:

this is a problem about poisson probabilities.   i don't know if you've

already studied poisson distributions, or if you have a place to look

to read more about the subject.  

here's how you can see a poisson distribution coming.   when there are

a lot of events that may happen at any time (or any place), and when

you're counting how many of them happen at a particular time (or a

particular place), and each event is independent of the others, then

the result is a poisson distribution.   this is roughly true for the

chocolate chips; one chip being in a cookie has only a small effect on

the probability that another chip will be in the cookie.

once you know you have a poisson distribution, you know a lot.   there

is only one parameter to a poisson distribution, so if you know the

mean, you know everything.   the form of the distribution is

  probability of n chips = {[e^(-x)]*(x^n)} / (n! )

i would say c is the best answer, hope it's right!

good luck! =)
