The point guard of a basketball team has to make a decision about whether or not to shoot a three-point attempt or pass the ball to another player who will shoot a two-point shot. the point guard makes three-point shots 30 percent of the time, while his teammate makes the two-point shot 48 percent of the time. xi 3 0 p(xi) 0.30 0.70 xi 2 0 p(xi) 0.48 0.52 what is the expected value for each choice? should he pass the ball or take the shot himself? explain.

the expected value for the 3 point shot = (3 * 0.30) + (0 * 0.70) = 0.90

the expected value for the 2 point shot = (2 * 0.48) + (0 * 0.52) = 0.96

the expected value for the 2 point shot is higher than the 3 point shot so he should pass the ball

x= 3^y
