The probability that I make a shot to the kth power.

我投篮的概率的 k 次方。

The not making a shot-- let's say not.

不开枪——让我们说不。

In basketball, making a shot that scores three points from a long distance away would be a great play.

在篮球比赛中，远距离投进三分将是一场伟大的比赛。

So, John Cleese goes… does not make a shot, so Keaton makes the whatever ball… 8 ball, I guess?

所以，约翰·克里斯（John Cleese）… … 没有投篮，所以基顿投进了任何球… … 我猜是 8 球？

So this is going to be the probability of me making a shot-- and I'll put those dollar signs.

所以这将是我投篮的可能性——我会放上那些美元符号。

In this situation, making a shot is less likely than not making a shot.

在这种情况下，投篮比不投篮更不可能。

We say the player " shoots" (shoots) the ball, or we may say that he " makes a shot" (shot).

我们说球员“投篮” （shoots）球，也可能说他“makes a shot” （射门）。

It's equal to 1 minus the probability that I make a shot, And notice it just calculated it for us, 0.7.

它等于 1 减去我投篮的概率，注意它刚刚为我们计算了它， 0. 7。

Not making a shot, that is equal to 1 minus the probability of making a shot, which is equal to 70%.

不投篮，等于 1 减去投篮概率， 等于 70%。

And since the way we set it up we can actually change it, so that if I have a higher probability of making a shot, now it looks pretty symmetric.

而且由于我们设置它的方式我们实际上可以改变它，所以如果我有更高的机会投篮， 现在它看起来非常对称。
