Using the concepts of parameter and statistic, it is found that the correct option is:

2% is a statistic and 5% is a statistic.

<h3>Parameter and Statistic:</h3>

If the information is taken from a sample, it is called a statistic.

If the information is taken from a population, it is called a parameter.

In this problem, both percentages are taken from samples, hence both the 2% and the 5% represents statistics, and the first option is correct.

Find the inverse of the following function. Then prove they are inverses of one another.

Answer: $\dfrac{x^2+1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$f(x)=\sqrt{2x-1}$

We can write it as

$\Rightarrow y=\sqrt{2x-1}$

Express x in terms of y

$\Rightarrow y^2=2x-1\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{y^2+1}{2}$

Replace y be x to get the inverse

$\Rightarrow f^{-1}(x)=\dfrac{x^2+1}{2}$

To prove, it is inverse of f(x). $f(f^{-1}(x))=x$

$\Rightarrow f(f^{-1}(x))=\sqrt{2\times \dfrac{x^2+1}{2}-1}\\\\\Rightarrow f(f^{-1}(x))=\sqrt{x^2+1-1}\\\\\Rightarrow f(f^{-1}(x))=x$

So, they are inverse of each other.

C) 0.179

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the trials are independent, this is a binomial distribution:

<u>Recall:</u>

Binomial Distribution --> $P(k)={n\choose k}p^kq^{n-k}$
$P(k)$ denotes the probability of $k$ successes in $n$ independent trials
$p^k$ denotes the probability of success on each of $k$ trials
$q^{n-k}$ denotes the probability of failure on the remaining $n-k$ trials
${n\choose k}=\frac{n!}{(n-k)!k!}$ denotes all possible ways to choose $k$ things out of $n$ things
