Question
Can someone please explain this to me I'm having a hard time solving it I don't get it. Thanks
Suppose a basketball player is an excellent free throw shooter and makes 91% of his free throws (i.e.,he has a 91% free chance of making a single free throw). Assume that free throw shots are independent of one another. Suppose this player shoots five free throws. Find the probability that he makes all five throw.

can anyone pretty please help me
If the probability of making 1 free throw is 91%, the probability of making 5 out of 5 is (91%)^5, or 62.4%

If a basketball player consistently shoots 80% from the free throw line and she takes 25 free throw shots throughout the course of a game, how many free throws can she be expected to make?
