10. Which of the following is the cube of ( 2x - 1)?​

Find a number such that if you add 8 and divide the result by 4 you will get the same answer as if you subtracted 3 from the original number and divided by 2

What will the graph look like for a system of equations that has no solution? a. the lines will be perpendicular. b. the lines will cross at one point. c. both equations will form the same line. d. the lines will be parallel.

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?
