Help with beginner probability problem: "Elton Brand is shooting free throws...."
Hi,
I saw this probability question today and I don't understand how the answer was derived. It was about independent events. Could someone explain?
Here it is:
Elton Brand is shooting free throws. Making or missing free throws doesn't change the probability that he will make his next one, and he makes his free throws 78% of the time.
What is the probability of Elton Brand making all of his next 4 free throw attempts?
