What is the x-value of the solution to this system of equations? x = 2y − 4 x + 5y = -66

Jose is going to use a random number generator 500500 times. each time he uses it, he will get a 1, 2, 3,1,2,3, or 44.

The sides of a parallelogram are 24cm and 16cm. the distance between the 24cm sides is 8 cm. find the distance between the 16cm sides

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?
