Consider the following scenario to understand the relationship between marginal and average values. Suppose Rajiv is a professional basketball player, and his game log for free throws can be summarized in the following table. Fill in the columns with Rajiv's free-throw percentage for each game and his overall free-throw average after each game. Game Game Result Total Game Free-Throw Percentage Average Free-Throw Percentage 1. 4/5 4/5 80 80 2/5 6/10 1/4 7/14 4 1/2 8/16 4/4 12/20 On the following graph, use the orange points (square symbol) to plot Rajiv's free-throw percentage for each game individually, and use the green points (triangle symbol) to plot his overall average free-throw percentage after each game. Note: Plot your points in the order in which you would like them connected. Line segments will connect the points automatically.
