Suppose a basketball player is an excellent free throw shooter and makes 91% of his free throws (i.e., he has a 91% 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 throws.

hey im NOT sure, but i think it's 45.5% because 5 x 0.91 = 45.5

The probability that he makes five out of his five shots
= (.91)(.91)(.91)(.91)(.91)
= (.91)^5
= .624 or 62.4%
