The remaining problems appear on Test 4 for distance students and these problems will not be counted on the test for distance students. These problems are required as part of Test 3 for in-class students, who will not have Test 4.

However in-class students should note that problems related to the binomial theorem, to permutations and combinations are optional on this test and will be counted only if they help your grade.
