If a basket ball player makes a 3 point shot, he has a 55% chance of making his next shot. If the player misses the 3 point shot, he has a 35% chance of making his next shot. The player is going to throw three 3 point shots. He makes his first shot. What is the probability he makes at least one of his next two shots given that he made the first shot? Can you show the formula and the work?
