Two different linear functions are shown below with two points given from each function. use slope-intercept form or point-slope form to find the equation of each. linear function a points: (–5, –2), (–5, 7) linear function b points: (7, –5), (–2, –5) function a has: the equation of line a is: function b has: the equation of line b is:

Two cyclists 84 miles apart start riding toward each other at the same. one cycles 2 times as fast as the other. if they meet 4 hours later, what is the speed (in mi/h) of the faster cyclist?

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?
