A flower bed contains 52 roses and 48 tulips. Two flowers have wilted, what is the probability that the flower is a tulip.

1 answer:

5 0

First, I add 52 to 48 to get the total amount of flowers. 52 + 48 = 100. Out of those 100, there are 48 tulips. If one flower wilted, the probability of it being a tulip would be 48/100, or 0.48. If a second flower wilted (with only 99 flowers left, and only 47 tulips left), the probability of it being a tulip is 47/99 or 0.474747... To get the probability of both of those being tulips, multiply the two together. 48/100 * 47/99 = 2256/9900 (then, simplify to 376/1650)

I hope this helps! Can I have Brainliest? :)

There are two different loci that cause white coat color in horses. One locus is the albino locus found in all mammals. Albinism

Answer: 6/12 are white, 3/12 are colored and 3/12 are albino.

Step-by-step explanation: If the horses are white and their parents are ccww (albino) and CCWw (white horse), according to Mendel's premises, they both must be CcWw, since the crossing provides one C from one parent and other c from the other parent, one W and the other w. Using Mendel's chess and the principle of independent segregation, the crossing between CcWw results in the following fenotypical ratio:

1/16 CCWW (lethal)

2/16 CCWw (white)

2/16 CcWW (lethal)

4/16 CcWw (white)

1/16 CCww (normal)

2/16 Ccww (normal)

2/16 ccWw (albino)

1/16 ccWW (lethal)

1/16 ccww (albino)

Excluding the 4 individuals that have the lethal locus, we have 6/12 that are white (2/12 + 4/12) and 3/12 (1/12 + 2/12) that are colored. Also, there are 3/12 of albino individuals as well.

P=2L+2W find the width of a rectangle whose length is 35 and perimeter is 82in

mart [117]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We can fill in what we know which is the length and perimeter.

82=2(35)+2(w)

Multiply 35 x 2 = 70

82-70= 12

12/2=6
