A genetics experiment involves a population of fruit flies consisting of 1 male named Bart and 3 females named Charlene, Diana,
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

(b) \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

1 male named Bart (b)

3 females named Charlene(c), Diana(d), and Erin(e).

Since there is replacement, the possible samples are:

bb, bc, be, bd, cb, cc, cd, ce, db, dc, dd, de, eb, ec, ed, and ee.

Total Number of pairs = 16

Event of picking 2 males:bb

Event of 1 male:bc,cb,bd,db,be,eb

Event of picking 0 males:

cc, cd, ce, dc, dd, de, ec, ed, and ee.

\begin{equation*} \begin{matrix}Proportion of males & Probability \\0 & 9/16 \\1 & 6/16 \\2 & 1/16 \end{matrix} \end{equation*}

b. The mean of the sampling distribution

\mu = (\frac{9}{16} X0 ) +(\frac{6}{16} X 1)+(\frac{1}{16} X 2) = \frac{8}{16} = \frac{1}{2}

c.  No; the proportion of males is \frac{1}{4} while the mean is \frac{1}{2}.

B. No, the sample mean is not equal to the population proportion of males. These values are not always equal, because proportion is an unbiased estimator.

A man owns 3/4 of the share of a business and sells 1/3 of his
quester [9]

Given:

A man owns 3/4 of the share of a business and sells 1/3 of his  shares for Bir 10,000.

To find:

The value of the business in Bir.

Solution:

Let x be the value of the business.

It is given that a man owns 3/4 of the share of a business and sells 1/3 of his  shares for Bir 10,000.

x\times \dfrac{3}{4}\times \dfrac{1}{3}=10000

x\times \dfrac{1}{4}=10000

Multiply both sides by 4.

x=4\times 10000

x=40000

Therefore, the value of the business is 40,000 Bir.

Students are making ornaments and each takes 1/4 of a piece of Bristol board. They go to the cupboard and find 2 1/2 pieces of B
coldgirl [10]

Answer: 10 ornaments

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that students are making ornaments and each takes 1/4 of a piece of Bristol board. We are further told that they go to the cupboard and find 2 1/2 pieces of Bristol board.

The number of ornaments that they make will be gotten by dividing 2 1/2 by 1/4. This will be:

= 2 1/2 ÷ 1/4

= 5/2 ÷ 1/4

= 5/2 × 4/1

= 10

They can make 10 ornaments
