Potelmy’s map was based on information by merchants and soldiers who travelled through the Roman Empire. The Ptolemy map is known to Hellenistic society in the 2nd century. Waldseemuller map used information from explorers as well as producing the first map with the label “America”. It was the primary guide, printed or original copy, to delineate clearly a separate Western Hemisphere, with the Pacific as a separate ocean.

Out of 150 offsprings born to a gray, 38 offsprings are expected to be blue with short fins

<h3>How to determine the expected number of blue fish with short fins</h3>

To do this, we make use of the following representations

L represents long finned fish
l represents short finned fish
g represents the gray fish
b represents the blue fish

So, we have the following genotypes

Lg, Lb, lg, lb

In the above 4 genotypes, lb represent the blue fishes with short fins

So, the probability of selecting a blue fish with short fins is:

$p = \frac 14$

In 150 offsprings, we have:

n = 150

So, the expected value is:

$E(x) = np$

This gives

$E(x) = 150 * \frac 14$

Evaluate the product

$E(x) = 37.5$

Approximate

$E(x) = 38$

Hence, 38 offsprings are expected to be blue with short fins
