Basketball player Chauncey Billups of the Detroit Pistons makes free throw shots 88 percent of the time Find the probability that he misses his first shot and makes the second?

Answer 1

10.56%

The probability that he misses his first shot is 12%. The probability that he makes the second shot is 88%. The probability of missing the first shot and making the second shot is 12% * 88%, or 0.12*0.88*100.
