Theo started to solve the quadratic equation (x + 2)2 – 9 = –5. he added 9 to both sides and the resulting equation was (x + 2)2 = 4. next, he took the square root of each side. which was the resulting equation of that step? x + 2 = ±4 x + 2 = ±2 x + 2 = ±8 x + 2 = ±16

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
