In a genetics experiment on​ peas, one sample of offspring contained 450 green peas and 371 yellow peas. Based on those​ results

, estimate the probability of getting an offspring pea that is green. Is the result reasonably close to the value of three fourths that was​ expected?

Answer:

P(G) = 0.55

the probability of getting an offspring pea that is green. Is 0.55.

Is the result reasonably close to the value of three fourths that was​ expected?

No

Expected P(G)= three fourths = 3/4 = 0.75

Estimated P(G) = 0.55

Estimated P(G) is not reasonably close to 0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Number of green peas offspring

G = 450

Number of yellow peas offspring

Y = 371

Total number of peas offspring

T = 450+371 = 821

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

P(G) = Number of green peas offspring/Total number of peas offspring

P(G) = G/T

Substituting the values;

P(G) = 450/821

P(G) = 0.548112058465

P(G) = 0.55

the probability of getting an offspring pea that is green. Is 0.55.

Is the result reasonably close to the value of three fourths that was​ expected?

No

Expected P(G)= three fourths = 3/4 = 0.75

Estimated P(G) = 0.55

Estimated P(G) is not reasonably close to 0.75

The speed of the car per minute is 3,520 feet (choice c). This is because in order to solve the problem, you have to convert 40 mi/h into feet. Since there are 5,280 feet per mile, you have to do 5,280 x 40, which is 211,200, which is the number of feet per hour. But, the question is asking for ft/min. There are 60 minutes in an hour, so you divide 211,200 by 60, which is 3,520. So, the speed of the car per minute is 3,520 feet.

Write the equation of a line that passes through the points (−3, 7) and (3, 3)
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

You can write an equation of a line conveniently by point-slope form. It's in the form of y -a = m(x -b) where (b,a) is the coordinates of a point that's on the line and m is the slope of the line.

Now choose a point (It doesn't really matter which one) and plug that in the equation. I'll choose (-3,7) where a = 7 and b = -3

y -a = m(x -b) \\ y -7 = m(x -(-3)) \\ y -7 = m(x +3)

The next thing we have to do now is finding the slope, m, where it's equal to \frac{y_{2} -y_{1}}{x_{2} -x_{1}}\\. I'll make (-3,7) point 1 and (3,3) point 2.

m = \frac{3 - 7}{3 -(-3)} \\ m = \frac{3 - 7}{3 +3} \\ m = \frac{-4}{6} \\ m = -\frac{2}{3}

Now let's plug that to our equation.

y -7 = m(x +3) \\ y -7 = -\frac{2}{3}(x +3)

Now we have the equation but out of all the choices it seemed that all of them are in slope-intercept form all you have to do now is make our equation rewrite it in slope-intercept form.

y -7 = -\frac{2}{3}(x +3)\\ y -7 = -\frac{2}{3}x -\frac{2}{3}(3) \\ y - 7 = -\frac{2}{3}x -2\\ y = -\frac{2}{3}x +5

<h3>Answer:</h3>

y = -\frac{2}{3}x +5\\ is your equation.

Home Depot wants to buy a new line of fertilizers. Manufacturer A offers a 22/19 chain discount. Manufacturer B offers a 25/14 c
Temka [501]

Answer: A is 36.82%. B is 35.5%

Step-by-step explanation: For manufacturer A 22/19 chian discount simply means 22% discount followed by 19% discount.

Therefore we have 100-22= 78 and 100-19=81.

The final price would be 0.78*0.81=0.6318

Therefore discount would be

1 - 0.6318=0.3682

Hence, percentage discount would be 0.3682*100%=36.82%.

For manufacturer B 25/14 chian discount means 25% discount followed by 14% discount. So we have 100-25=75% and 100-14= 86%

Final price would be 0.86*.75=0.645.

Discount= 1 - 0.645= 0.355.

Percentage discount would be 0.355*100%=35.5%.
