Answer:
The proportion of the offspring from the cross PpRr × PpRr that are expected to have white flowers and wrinkled seeds is 1/16 or 6.25%.
Step-by-step explanation:
The uppercase letter represents the dominant allele, while the lowercase represents the recessive allele. The dominant allele determines the phenotype (observable trait) when it is present.
When you cross heterozygous individuals for each trait, each individual of the offspring has the probability of 1/6 of each combination of four alleles (two for each trait). Because the dominant allele determines the phenotype when it is present, the probability of dominant phenotypes is higher than recessive phenotypes.
Proportions of each phenotype in the offspring from the cross PpRr × PpRr are:
Purple flowers with round seeds: 9/16
Purple flowers with wrinkled seeds: 3/16
White flowers with round seeds: 3/16
White flowers with wrinkled seeds: 1/16
The proportion of individuals with white flowers and wrinkled seeds is the lowest because they are homozygous recessive for both traits.
Answer:
w=20
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for w by cross multiplying.
Answer:
2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
2y + -1.7 = 3.3
Reorder the terms:
-1.7 + 2y = 3.3
Solving
-1.7 + 2y = 3.3
Solving for variable 'y'.
Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '1.7' to each side of the equation.
-1.7 + 1.7 + 2y = 3.3 + 1.7
Combine like terms: -1.7 + 1.7 = 0.0
0.0 + 2y = 3.3 + 1.7
2y = 3.3 + 1.7
Combine like terms: 3.3 + 1.7 = 5
2y = 5
Divide each side by '2'.
y = 2.5
Simplifying
y = 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:
3(x + 4) + 2 = 2 + 5(x – 4)
Step 1: distributive property
3(x + 4) + 2 = 2 + 5(x – 4)
3x + 12 + 2 = 2 + 5x - 20
Step 2: collect like terms
3x + 12 + 2 = 2 + 5x - 20
3x + 14 = 5x - 18
Step 3: Addition property of equality
3x + 14 = 5x - 18
3x + 14 + 18 = 5x - 18 + 18
3x + 32 = 5x
Step 4: subtraction property of equality
3x + 32 - 3x = 5x - 3x
32 = 2x
Step 5: division property of equality
32 = 2x
32/2 = 2x/2
16 = x
x = 16
Answer:
Total gas used = 3/2 of a tank of gas
Step-by-step explanation:
Visit to friend = 6/8 of a tank of gas
Commute to work = 1/2 of a tank of gas
Weekend trip = 1/4 of a tank of gas
Total gas used = Visit to friend + Commute to work + Weekend trip
= 6/8 + 1/2 + 1/4
= 6+4+2/8
= 12/8
= 3/2
Total gas used = 3/2 of a tank of gas
