lonnie threw 50 free throws and missed 16 of them. if lonnie throws 75 free throws, what can be predicted…

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate success - rate for 50 throws

First, find the number of successful throws out of 50. The number of successful throws out of 50 is $50 - 16=34$. The success - rate $r$ is $\frac{34}{50}=0.68$.

Step2: Predict successful throws for 75 throws

Multiply the success - rate by the number of throws. If the number of throws is $n = 75$, the predicted number of successful throws $s$ is $s=r\times n=0.68\times75 = 51$.

Answer:

B. Lonnie will make 51 free throws.
