there are two solutions, one positive and one negative. remember to flip the inequality when taking the negative solution
x-4 < 1 x-4 > -1
add 4 to each side
x-4+4 < 1+4 x-4+4 > -1+4
x< 5 x> 3
3< x< 5

the terms of a geometric sequence can be found by beginning with the first term and multiplying by the common ratio repeatedly. a recursive formula for a geometric sequence with common ratio r is given by an=ran−1 a n = r a n − 1 for n≥2 n ≥ 2 .
An optical inspection system is used to distinguish among different part types. the probability of a correct classification of any part is 0.92. suppose that three parts are inspected and that the classifications are independent. let the random variable x denote the number of parts that are correctly classified. determine the probability mass function of x. round your answers to four decimal places (e.g. 98.7654). x f(x) 0 1 2 3
