Martha has widow's peak and attached earlobes. Martha's dad had a straight hairline and unattached earlobes. If Martha marries a man that is heterozygous for both traits, what is the probability that they will have a child with a widow's peak and attached earlobes?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

the probability of having a widow peak and attached earlobe = 0.6667*0.66667 = 0.4445 = 44.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Martha = widow's peak + attached earlobes.

Martha's dad = straight hairline + unattached earlobes.

Martha husband =straight hairline+ widow's peak + attached earlobes

what is the probability that Martha child will have a widow's peak + attached earlobes?

since,

Martha + Martha husband =straight hairline+ widow's peak + attached earlobes

the probability of the child having widow peak is 2/3 = 0.6667

the probability of the child having attached earlobes is 2/3 = 0.66667

the probability of having both = 0.6667*0.66667 = 0.4445

What is the coefficient of x^2y^3 in the expansion of (2x+y)^5

Answers

Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

A P E X

We figure out the coefficient of x^2y^3 by figuring out the coefficients in both (x+y)^4 and (x+2y)^4. 

Using the binomial theorem, the coefficient of x^2y^3 on the first expansion is 

(4 choose 3)x^2y^3=6x^2y^3, 

and the coefficient of x^2y^3 on the second expansion is 

(4 choose 3)x^2(2y)^3=6x^2(4y^2)=24x^2y^3. 

Thus, the coefficient in the sum of these two expansions is 6+24=30.

Simplify sin(3x+13)=cos(4x)

Answers

Sin(3×+13)=sin(pi/2-4×)
3x+13 =pi/2 -4×          or 3×+13 =pi-pi/2 + 4×
7× = pi/2 - 13 +k2pi   or -× = pi/2 +k2pi
× = pi/14 - 13/7 k2pi/7   or X = -pi/2 + kpi

Sue deposited $3000 in a savings account earning 2% interest over 8 years. What was the total interest Sue earned?

Answers

Original Interest: I = Prt
                           I = (3000)(0.02)(8)
                           I = (60)(8)
                           I = 480

Simple Interest: A = P(1 + rt)
                          A = 3000(1 + (0.02)(8))
                          A = 3000(1 + 0.16)
                          A = 3000(1.16)
                          A = 3480

Compound Interest: C = P((1 + r)^(n) - 1)
                                C = 3000(1 - 0.02)^(96) - 1)
                                C = 3000((0.98)^(96) - 1)
                                C = 3000(014 - 1)
                                C = 3000(-0.86)
                                C = -2580

Payment Amount: A = P(r(1 + r)^(n))/((1 + r)^(n) - 1)
                             A = 3000((0.02(1 + 0.02)^(96))/((1 + 0.02)^(96) - 1))
                             A = 3000((0.02(1.02)^(96))/((1.02)^(96) - 1))
                             A = 3000((0.02(6.7))/(6.7 - 1))
                             A = 3000((0.134)/(5.7))
                             A = 3000(0.024)
                             A = 72
