Let x be the distance it runs on the first day, then:-

x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 54

3x + 6 = 54

3x = 54 - 6 = 48

x = 48/3 = 16 km

So for the first 2 days it runs 16 + 18 = 34 km. Answer

Answer

34 Km

Explanation

Assuming that the dog ran x Km the first day,

1st day = x km

2nd day = (x+2)

3rd day = (x+2)+2 = (x+4) Km

So we have,

x + (x+2) + (x+4) = 54

3x + 6 =54

3x = 54-6

3x = 48

x = 16 Km.

∴

1st day = 16 Km

2nd day = 16 + 2 = 18

Total distance for the first 2 days = 16 + 18 = 34 Km

If Anne gave birth to four males and four females, and they all gave birth the same way again, they would have eight males, but if it were to happen again, there would be 12 males and 12 females in total if you don't count all of the females giving birth EACH to four males and four females. Otherwise it would be 40 males, and 40 females.

Free_Kalibri [48]

We are given with
p2 + 2pq = 0.64
and another formula is
p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1
Substituting
0.64 + q2 = 1
q2 = 1 - 0.64
q2 = 0.36
q = 0.6

Another formula is
p + q = 1
p = 1 - 0.6
p = 0.4

What is asked is 2pq
p2 + 2pq = 0.64
2pq = 0.64 - 0.4^2
2pq = 0.48

There is 48% that has the heterozygous trait.

How do I solve (fraction) 2/3d=1/6?

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

d = 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the equation by the inverse of the coefficient of the variable.

$\dfrac{2}{3}d=\dfrac{1}{6}\\\\\dfrac{3}{2}\cdot\dfrac{2}{3}d=\dfrac{3}{2}\cdot\dfrac{1}{6}\\\\d=\dfrac{3\cdot 1}{2\cdot 6}=\dfrac{3}{12}=\dfrac{3\cdot 1}{3\cdot 4}\\\\d=\dfrac{1}{4}$

Find the limit. (If an answer does not exist, enter DNE.)<br> lim ( (1/x)-(1/lxl)) <br> x→0^+

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The + on the zero means the limit as x approaches 0 from the right side

$\lim_{x \to 0^{+} } (\frac{1}{x} - \frac{1}{|x|})\\ \lim_{x \to 0^{+} } (\frac{1}{x} - \frac{1}{x})\\ \lim_{x \to 0^{+} } (0)\\0$
