Astudent found the solution below for the given inequality. |x-9|< -4 x-9> 4 and x-9< -4 x> 13 and x< 5 which of the following explains whether the student is correct? -the student is completely correct because the student correctly wrote and solved the compound inequality. -the student is partially correct because only one part of the compound inequality is written correctly. -the student is partially correct because the student should have written the statements using “or” instead of “and.” -the student is completely incorrect because there is no solution to this inequality.

The random variable x has probability density function f (x) = k(−x²+5x−4) 1 ≤ x ≤ 4 or =0 1 show that k = 2/9 find 2 e(x), 3 the mode of x, 4 the cumulative distribution function f(x) for all x. 5 evaluate p(x ≤ 2.5). 6 deduce the value of the median and comment on the shape of the distribution.
