Two of the steps in the derivation of the quadratic formula are shown below.

Step 6: StartFraction b squared minus 4 a c Over 4 a squared EndFraction = (x + StartFraction b Over 2 a EndFraction) squared

Step 7: StartFraction plus or minus StartRoot b squared minus 4 a c EndRoot Over 1 a EndFraction = x + StartFraction b Over 2 a EndFraction

Which operation is performed in the derivation of the quadratic formula moving from Step 6 to Step 7?

subtracting StartFraction b Over 2 a EndFraction from both sides of the equation
squaring both sides of the equation
taking the square root of both sides of the equation
taking the square root of the discriminant

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?
