The height of a certain plant is determined by a dominant allele T corresponding to tall plants, and a recessive allele t corresponding to short (or
dwarf) plants. If both parent plants have genotype Tt, compute the probability that the offspring plants will be tall. Hint: Draw a Punnett square.
(Enter your probability as a fraction.)
Answers
Answer:
The probability of the plants being tall is equal to P(TT) + P(Tt)= 1/4+1/2=3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
The characteristic "height" of a plant is determined by the alleles "tall" T (dominant) and "short" a (recessive). If both parents are Tt, you have to calculate the probability of the offspring being tall (TT or Tt)
To construct the Punnet square you have to make a table, where the parental alleles will be in the margins, for example: the father's alleles in the columns and the mother's alleles in the rows.
Each parent will produce a haploid gamete that will carry one of the alleles, so the probability for the offspring receiving one of the alleles is 1/2
Father (Tt): gametes will carry either the dominant allele T or the recessive allele t with equal probability 1/2
Mother (Tt): gametes will also carry either the dominant allele T or the recessive allele t with equal probability 1/2
Then you have to cross each allele to determine all possible outcomes for the offsprings. For each cell, the probability of obtaining both alleles will be the product of the probability of each allele (See attachment)
First combination, the offspring will receive one dominant allele from his father and one dominant allele from his mother: TT, the probability of obtaining an offspring with this genotype will be P(T) * P(T) = 1/2*1/2=1/4
Second combination, the offspring will receive the recessive allele from the father and the dominant allele from the mother, then its genotype till be tT with probability: P(t)*P(T)= 1/2*1/2=1/4
Third combination, the offspring will receive one dominant allele from his father and one recessive allele from his mother, the resulting genotype will be Tt with probability: P(T)*P(t)= 1/2*1/2=1/4
Combination, the offspring will receive both recessive alleles from his parents, the resulting genotype will be tt with probability: P(t)*P(t)= 1/2*1/2=1/4
So there are three possible genotypes for the next generation:
TT with probability P(TT)= 1/4
Tt with probability: P(Tt)+P(tT)=1/4+1/4=1/2⇒ This genotype is observed twice so you have to add them.
tt with probability P(tt)= 1/4
Assuming this genotype shows complete dominance, you'll observe the characteristic "Tall" in individuals that carry the dominant allele "T", i.e. individuals with genotype "TT" and "Tt"
So the probability of the plants being tall is equal to P(TT) + P(Tt)= 1/4+1/2=3/4
I hope this helps!

Answer: 1 5/6, or 11/6, or 1.83333333
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{6}{3} + -\frac{1}{6}[/tex]
6/3 is 2.
Thus, the answer is 2 - 1/6 or 1 5/6
Answer:
11/6
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to find a common denominator for the 2 fractions.
A common denominator for 3 and 6 is 6.
Let’s get the fraction 6/3 to a denominator of 6.
Multiply by 2/2
6/3 * 2/2
(6*2) / (3*2)
12/6
Now the fractions have common denominators and can be added.
12/6 + (-1/6)
When adding negative fractions, you can simply subtract.
12/6 - 1/6
Subtract across the numerator and leave the denominator as is
11/6

A car is driving at 100 kilometers per hour. How far, in meters, does it travel in 3 seconds?
Answers
Answer:
The car travels 83 1/3 meters in 3 seconds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Speed of car = 100 KM/ hour
1 km= 1000m
1 hour = 3600 seconds
Lets find speed of car in Meters/second
speed of car in m/sec = 100*1000 m/3600 second
here we have taken 1000 for km and 3600 for hour
speed of car in m/sec = 100*1000 m/3600 second = 500/18 m/second
speed of car in m/sec = 250/9 m per sec
We know that
distance = speed*time
speed = 250/9 m per sec
time =3 second
distance = 250/9 * 3 meters = 250/3 meters = 83 1/3 meters.
Thus, car travels 83 1/3 meters in 3 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:
a) If [tex]\mu_1[/tex] is the average learning rate of the 6th graders without background noise level and [tex]\mu_2[/tex] is the average learning rate of the 6th graders with background noise level
The Null Hypothesis is that the learning rate of the 6th graders is not affected by the background noise level.
Null hypothesis, [tex]H_0: \mu_1 = \mu_2[/tex]
b) The Alternative Hypothesis is that the learning rate of the 6th graders is affected by the background noise level.
Alternative hypothesis, [tex]H_a: \mu_1 \neq \mu_2[/tex]
c) Assumptions that must be met about the data before she can correctly use independent t-test
There must be random selection of the 6th graders
That the two groups are normally similar in their learning abilities
The division of students into the two groups should be at random
d) She has to make these assumptions to prevent bias and inaccuracy of results. If these assumptions are not made, the outcome of the experiment may not reflect the true effect of background noise on the learning of the 6th graders.
She can still get accurate results if she include some bias in the selection to prove a particular result.

The highway fuel economy of a 2016 Lexus RX 350 FWD 6-cylinder 3.5-L automatic 5-speed using premium fuel is a normally distributed random variable with a mean of μ = 26.50 mpg and a standard deviation of σ = 3.25 mpg.
Required:
a. What is the standard error of X and the mean from a random sample of 25 fill-ups by one driver?
b. Within what interval would you expect the sample mean to fall, with 98 percent probability?
Answers
Answer:
a) 0.65 mpg
b) Between 24.99 mpg and 28.01 mpg.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
Normal probability distribution
When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation, which is also called standard error, [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
In this question, we have that:
[tex]\mu = 26.50, \sigma = 3.25, n = 25, s = \frac{3.25}{\sqrt{25}} = 0.65[/tex]
a. What is the standard error of X and the mean from a random sample of 25 fill-ups by one driver?
s = 0.65 mpg
b. Within what interval would you expect the sample mean to fall, with 98 percent probability?
From the: 50 - (98/2) = 1st percentile
To the: 50 + (98/2) = 99th percentile
1st percentile:
X when Z has a pvalue of 0.01. So X when Z = -2.327.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]-2.327 = \frac{X - 26.50}{0.65}[/tex]
[tex]X - 26.50 = -2.327*0.65[/tex]
[tex]X = 24.99[/tex]
99th percentile:
X when Z has a pvalue of 0.99. So X when Z = 2.327.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]2.327 = \frac{X - 26.50}{0.65}[/tex]
[tex]X - 26.50 = 2.327*0.65[/tex]
[tex]X = 28.01[/tex]
Between 24.99 mpg and 28.01 mpg.

How much time does
it take to pump 727.5
liters of water into a

similar water pipes?
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since 15 liters of water flow through a water pipe and enter a tank within 4.5 minutes, the same amount of water would flow through a similar pipe at the same time. Therefore, if two similar water pipes are used, the volume of water that would flow into the tank in 4.5 minutes is 15 × 2 = 30 liters
Therefore, the time it will take to pump 727.5 liters of water into a water tank using 2 similar water pipes is
(727.5 × 4.5)/30 = 109.125 minutes

[tex] (42700- 36275) +2.374 \sqrt{\frac{2030^2}{41} +\frac{1360^2}{41}}=7330.929[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we have the following info given:
[tex]n_1 = 41 , \bar X_1 =42700 , s_1 = 2030[/tex]
[tex]n_2 = 41 , \bar X_2 =36375 , s_2 = 1360[/tex]
And for this case we want a 98% confidence interval. The significance would be:
[tex] \alpha= 1-0.98=0.02[/tex]
The degrees of freedom are:
[tex] df = n_1 +n_2 -2= 41+41 -2= 80[/tex]
And the critical value for this case is:
[tex] t_{\alpha/2}= 2.374[/tex]
And the confidence interval would be given by:
[tex](\bar X_1 -\bar X_2) \pm t_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{s^2_1}{n_1}+\frac{s^2_2}{n_2}}[/tex]
And replacing we got:

What is a right-angled triangle?A triangle is a polygon that has three sides and three vertices. It is one of the basic figures in geometry. A right-angled triangle is a triangle having one of its angles with a measure of 90°. The slanted side of that triangle is called Hypotenuse and it is the longest side in that triangle.
If one of the angle is of 90° then the triangle is right angled triangle.
We can see that the Hypotenuse is always the biggest side among all the sides.
Then the perpendicular side BC is the second biggest and then the base of the triangle.
Therefore, the order must be AB > BC > AC.
