Answer:

The probability of getting an offspring pea that is green is is 0.733

YES, the probability is reasonably close to the expected value of 3/4 (0.750)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating the probability of an event is;

P = Favorable Outcome / Sample space

Let A be an event of getting an offspring green peas, B be an event of getting an offspring yellow peas and N be the total number of peas.

number of green peas in an offspring are 350

number of yellow peas in an offspring are 127

total number of peas are 477

So in the genetic experiment, the number of times event A occurs is 350 and the number times event B occurs is 127

Now the probability of getting an offspring pea that is green is

P = number of green peas / total number of peas

p = n(A)/N

p = 350/477

p = 0.733

So YES, the probability is reasonably close to 3/4 ( 0.750 )

The probability of getting an offspring pea that is green is is 0.733.

YES, the probability is reasonably close to the expected value of 3/4 (0.750)

For the equation given below, evaluate y′ at the point (−2,2)<br> xe^y−4y=2x−4−2e^2

jeka94

Implicit differentiation
chain rule is important here

I'll show the steps partially
$e^y+xe^yy'-4y'=2$
$xe^yy'-4y'=2-e^y$
$y'(xe^y-4)=2-e^y$
$y'=\dfrac{2-e^y}{xe^y-4}$
now evaluate for (-2,2)
x=-2 and y=2
$y'=\dfrac{2-e^2}{-2e^2-4}$
$y'=\dfrac{2-e^2}{-2e^2-4}$
$y'=\dfrac{e^2-2}{2e^2+4}$
that's it, simplest form

frank rented a truck for one day. There was a base fee of 14.95, and there was an additional charge of 78 cents for each mile dr

Gemiola [76]

Answer : 153 miles

Explanation : first take 134.29 & subtract the 14.95 base fee which give you 119.34 . now divide 119.34 by 78 which gives you 1.53. so he drove 153 miles.
equation : 14.95+ 0.78x = 134.29 . to double check just multiply 153 x 0.78 and add $14.95 which gives us the total of $134.29

Complementary angles are angles who sum to 90 degrees. So, since one angle is 13 degrees, naturally the other must equal 77. Good luck! c:
