PLEASE HELP Using F(x) = x^2/3 - 2, determine if each statement below is true or false. Show the work that justifies your answer.

(first statement) a. f(6) = f(-6)

(2nd statement)b. f(6) = 2× f(3)

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

Substituting the given values:

f(6) = 6(2/3) - 2 =   cube root of 6^2 - 2 = cube root 36 - 2

f(-6)=  (-6)(2/3) - 2 =   cube root of(-6)^2 - 2 = cube root 36 - 2

So This is true,

f(6) =   cube root of 6^2 - 2 = cube root 36 - 2 = 1.3019

2 * f(3) = 2 *  (cube root of 3^2 - 2 )  =  2 * (cube root of 9 - 2) = 0.1602

So False,

the answer is; biodiversity resulting from few ancestors

adaptive radiation occurs when a population is subjected to a large natural environment with spatial ecological variations. the parts of the population in the different ecologies begin to adapt to their local environments. due to non-random mating across the large populations, this causes the different populations from the large population to speciate within their local environments. they, therefore, diverge to different species sharing a common ancestor.
