Matthew is going to drive from Salt Lake City, Utah, to Las Vegas, Nevada. His car travels a consistent number of miles

per gallon of gasoline and he has some gasoline in his tank already. Matthew writes the

equation 25(x + 3) = 424, where x represents the number of gallons of gasoline he will need to purchase to

complete the trip.

Identify the meaning of each of the constants in Matthew's equation in the context of the problem, then solve

the equation to determine how many gallons of gasoline he must purchase.

Given ab and cb are tangents of p, and m =10°. what is the measure of abp?

Amachine that produces a special type of transistor (a component of computers) has a 2% defective rate. the production is considered a random process where each transistor is independent of the others. (a) what is the probability that the 10th transistor produced is the first with a defect? (b) what is the probability that the machine produces no defective transistors in a batch of 100? (c) on average, how many transistors would you expect to be produced before the first with a defect? what is the standard deviation? (d) another machine that also produces transistors has a 5% defective rate where each transistor is produced independent of the others. on average how many transistors would you expect to be produced with this machine before the first with a defect? what is the standard deviation? (e) based on your answers to parts (c) and (d), how does increasing the probability of an event a↵ect the mean and standard deviation of the wait time until success?
