Given:
The increase in pressure P is the linear function of the depth d.

The cost of dinner is $300 and $10 per students.
To find:
The initial value and rate of change and their interpretation.
Find the cost function C where n is the number of students.
Solution:
The slope intercept form of a linear function is
...(i)
where, m is rate of change and b is y-intercept or initial value.
We have,
...(ii)
From (i) and (ii), we get

The initial value is 14.7. It means, the pressure at sea level is 14.7 pounds psi.
Rate of change is 0.445. It means, the pressure is increasing by 0.445 pounds psi for every feet.
The cost of dinner is $300 and $10 per students.
Let C(n) be the total cost for dinner and n be the number of students.
Fixed cost = $300
Additional cost for 1 student = $10
Additional cost for n student = $10n
Now,
Total cost = Fixed cost + Additional cost

Therefore, the required cost function is
.

Answer:
There are 16 track events and 6 field events
Using the hypergeometric distribution, it is found that there is a 0.0273 = 2.73% probability that the third defective bulb is the fifth bulb tested.
In this problem, the bulbs are chosen without replacement, hence the <em>hypergeometric distribution</em> is used to solve this question.
<h3>What is the hypergeometric distribution formula?</h3>
The formula is:


The parameters are:
- x is the number of successes.
- N is the size of the population.
- n is the size of the sample.
- k is the total number of desired outcomes.
In this problem:
- There are 12 bulbs, hence N = 12.
- 3 are defective, hence k = 3.
The third defective bulb is the fifth bulb if:
- Two of the first 4 bulbs are defective, which is P(X = 2) when n = 4.
- The fifth is defective, with probability of 1/8, as of the eight remaining bulbs, one will be defective.
Hence:


0.2182 x 1/8 = 0.0273.
0.0273 = 2.73% probability that the third defective bulb is the fifth bulb tested.
