<span>a1= (which is the first term.)
to find the 2nd term you plug in 2 for (an) in the formula given to you. =-4(2-1)^2 *remember an represents the term u are looking for *
now you start to solve it
-4(2-1)^2
-4 (1)^2 .
-4^2 = 16
so your first two terms are 2 and 16 .</span>

The probability that a plant is edible is 4/5 and the probability that a plant grows at a constant rate and is edible is 14/19.

miskamm [114]

Answer: Probability that a plant grows at a constant rate, given it is edible is given by $\frac{35}{38}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let B be an event that getting a plant grows at a constant rate.

Since we have given that

The probability that a plant is edible is given by

$P(A)=\frac{4}{5}$

The probability that a plant grows at a constant rate and is edible is given by

$P(A\cap B)=\frac{14}{19}$

We will use "Conditional probability ", i.e.

$P(A\mid B)=\frac{P(A\cap B)}{P(A)}$

$P(A\mid B)=\frac{\frac{14}{19}}{\frac{4}{5}}\\\\P(A\mid B)=\frac{14\times 5}{19\times 4}\\\\P(A\mid B)=\frac{70}{76}\\\\P(A\mid B)=\frac{35}{38}$

Hence, Probability that a plant grows at a constant rate, given it is edible is given by $\frac{35}{38}$ .
