Answer:

The proportion of the population that is homozygous for the non-wiggling allele is 0.3056.

Step-by-step explanation:

Denote the variables as follows:

<em>q²</em> = number of people who are homozygous for the scalp-wiggling allele.

<em>p²</em> = number of people who are homozygous for the non-wiggling allele.

It is provided that the proportion of the population who are homozygous for the scalp-wiggling allele is, <em>q²</em> = 0.20.

Compute the value of <em>q</em> as follows:

q^{2}=0.20\\q=\sqrt{0.20}\\=0.4472

Compute the value of <em>p</em> as follows:

p=1-q\\=1-0.4472\\=0.5528

Compute the proportion of the population who are homozygous for the non-wiggling allele as follows:

p^{2}=(0.5528)^{2}=0.30558784\approx0.3056

Thus, the proportion of the population that is homozygous for the non-wiggling allele is 0.3056.

Please help me find X
Zanzabum

Answer:

  x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of distances from the intersection of secants to the near and far intersections with the circle are the same. For a tangent, the near and far points of intersection with the circle are the same. This relation tells us ...

  (2√3)(2√3) = x(x +4)

  12 = x² +4x

  16 = x² +4x +4 . . . . . add the square of half the x-coefficient to complete the square

  4² = (x +2)² . . . . . . . . write as squares

  4 = x +2 . . . . . . . . . . positive square root

  2 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 2

_____

<em>Alternate solution</em>

If you believe x to be an integer, you can look for factors of 12 that differ by 4.

  12 = 1×12 = 2×6 = 3×4

The factors 2 and 6 differ by 4, so x=2 and x+4=6.

On a piece of paper, graph y≥ x - 1. Then determine which answer choice
zhannawk [14.2K]

Based on the given inequality of y≥ x - 1, the graph that matches it best is C. Graph A.

<h3>How are inequalities graphed?</h3>

When graphing an inequality with the "greater or equal" and "less or equal" signs, the line will be a steady line as shown by graphs A and B.

If y is the larger or equal variable, the shaded area will be to the left of the line.

The inequality is y≥ x - 1 which means that the line should be steady and the shading should be on the left of the line. Graph A is therefore the correct graph.

The apother is 4 m and a side is 5.8 m. What is the area
jekas [21]

Answer:

58 m^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The  area of one of the 5 triangles is:

1/2 * 5.8 * 4 = 11.6 m^2

So the area of the pentagon

= 5 + 11.6

= 58 m^2
