Mark noticed that the probability that a certain player hits a home run in a single game is 0.175. Mark is interested in the variability of the number of home runs if this player plays 200 games. If Mark uses the normal approximation of the binomial distribution to model the number of home runs, what is the standard deviation for a total of 200 games? Answer choices are rounded to the hundredths place.

A baseball player, Mickey, who bats 310 (or .310) gets an average of 3.1 hits in ten at bats. We will assume that each time Mickey bats he has a 0.31 probability of getting a hit. This means Mickeys at bats are independent from one another. If we also assume Mickey bats 5 times during a game and that x= the number of hits that Mickey gets then the following probability mass function, p(x), and cumulative distribution function F(x) are...

A baseball player hits a home run, and the baseball just clear a wall 27 m located 144 m from the home plate. The ball is hit at an angle of 38 degrees to the horizontal, and air resistance is negligible. Assume the ball is hit at a height of 1.0 m above the ground. What is the initial speed of the ball? (use g = 10 m/s2). How much time does it take for the ball to reach the...
