A quality control engineer found two defective units in a sample of 50 at this rate what is the expected number of defective units in a shipment of 10,000 units

Part A: Geometric Sequence

Part B:

Part C: a₈ = 512

Step-by-step explanation:

When we find the common ratio between the y-values (x-values are n inputs), we should see that we get r = 2. That means we have a geometric sequence.

Because we have a geometric sequence, our recursive formula is: . Simply plug in our known variables:

Now we need to find what y is when x = 8, so (I used explicit formula):

a₈ = 512
