This is the correct way to write the expression. Based on the order of operations, always solve operations in parentheses first. Here, you'd add 4 + 2, then multiply that sum by 5—in other words, exactly what was written in the original expression.

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?

How many heads would you expect if you flipped a coin twice? first, fill in the table below with the correct probabilities. hint: the sample space for flipping a coin twice is {hh, ht, th, tt}. a = b = c = f

Ben works in his dads bakery packing bagels each package can have no more then 16 bagels 3/4 of the bagels in each package are plain what other fractions could represent the part of the bagels in each package that will be plain
