Question 1167499: Suppose the probability of a server winning any given point in a tennis match is a constant​ p, with 0 ≤ p ≤ 1. Then the probability of the server winning a game when serving from deuce is given below.
f(p)=p^2/1-2p(1-p)
a. Evaluate f(0.79) and interpret the results.
f(0.79)= ** round to four decimal places as needed
When serving from deuce, the server will win approximately ___ out of 100 games. (round to the nearest integer as needed)
