Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the section, "When Good Bananas Go Bad", we are made to understand that one of the reasons why the TR4 fungus can spread easily through banana roots is because, there is only one variety, which is the Cavendish variety. Experts advise that people should develop interest in other varieties like the Manzano, which has the taste of Apple and Strawberry.

Another reason given for the spread of the disease is increased human transportation. Although growing one type of banana would be beneficial for companies, the fact that they have the same genetic material, aids the spread of the disease. So, diversification is advised.

In a list of households, own homes and do not own homes. Five households are randomly selected from these households. Find the p
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

The probability of success for this case would be:

p =\frac{9}{15}= 0.6 representing the proportion of homes that are own homes

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:  

X \sim Binom(n=15, p=0.6)  

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:  

P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}  

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:  

nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}  

And we want this probability:

P(X=3)

And uing the probability mass function we got:

P(X=3)= 15C3 (0.6)^3 (1-0.6)^{15-3}= 0.00165

Step-by-step explanation:

Adduming the following info: In a list of 15 households, 9 own homes and 6 do not own homes. Five households are randomly selected from these 15 households. Find the probability that the number of households in these 5 own homes is exactly 3.

Round your answer to four decimal places

P (exactly 3)=

Previous concepts  

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".  

Solution to the problem

The probability of success for this case would be:

p =\frac{9}{15}= 0.6 representing the proportion of homes that are own homes

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:  

X \sim Binom(n=15, p=0.6)  

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:  

P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}  

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:  

nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}  

And we want this probability:

P(X=3)

And uing the probability mass function we got:

P(X=3)= 15C3 (0.6)^3 (1-0.6)^{15-3}= 0.00165

Please help with this I am completely stuck on it
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

f(x)=\sqrt[3]{x-4} , g(x)=6x^{2}\textrm{ or }f(x)=\sqrt[3]{x},g(x)=6x^{2} -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The function, H(x)=\sqrt[3]{6x^{2}-4}

Solution 1:

Let f(x)=\sqrt[3]{x}

If f(g(x))=H(x)=\sqrt[3]{6x^{2}-4}, then,

\sqrt[3]{g(x)} =\sqrt[3]{6x^{2}-4}\\g(x)=6x^{2}-4

Solution 2:

Let f(x)=\sqrt[3]{x-4}. Then,

f(g(x))=H(x)=\sqrt[3]{6x^{2}-4}\\\sqrt[3]{g(x)-4}=\sqrt[3]{6x^{2}-4} \\g(x)-4=6x^{2}-4\\g(x)=6x^{2}

Similarly, there can be many solutions.
