Pedro has determined that the probability his shot will score in a lacrosse game is 0.30. what is the probability that he will score on two consecutive shots? 0.09 0.15 0.30 0.60

If the probability of making a shot is 3/10, the probability of making two shots in a row is:

(3/10)(3/10)=9/100   (9%)

Where are the answer choices?

First step is to get rid of the square root. remember that a square root is the same as raising to the (1/2) power. see below: multiply exponents per exponent rules to get: remember you subtract exponents from the denominator and add exponents in the numerator so: simplify further: so a is the correct choice. if you don't understand this google exponent rules and it will you understand. look at the image results.
