If a football team has a 90% chance of making a field goal for 3 points and a 35% chance of making a touchdown for 7 points, find the expected value of a field goal.

The expected value of a set of outcomes can be found by taking the weighted sum of the outcomes, with the probabilities of the weights:

add an image

step-by-step explanation:

d) by the cross product property, ab^2 = bc multiplied by ad

step-by-step explanation:

we are given

in the given triangle abc

angle a is 90° and segment ad is perpendicular to segment bc

we can see that

triangle(abc) and triangle(abd) are similar because they have common side and same angle (90 degree)

so, triangles(abc) and abd are similar

since, they are similar

so, the ratio of their sides must be equal

we get

now, we can cross multiply

and we get

so, this could be step to prove it
