Answer:

The correct answer is

0.5 F, 0.5 f

Step-by-step explanation:

We note the following

Number of colored circles in the box = 14

Number of red circles in the box = 4

Number of purple circles in the box = 6

Number of blue circles in the box = 4

The allele frequency are as follows

Where the frequency is given as

Genotype            Frequency                         Relative frequency        

FF = Red                    4                                       4/14 (0.29≈0.3)                  

Ff = Purple                 6                                       6/14 (0.43≈0.4)

ff = Blue                     4                                       4/14(0.29≈0.3)

Within this population,

We however  have 4 FF = 8 F

                                6 Ff =   6 F + 6 f  and

                                4 ff = 8 f

Total allele = 8+6+6+8 = 28

Relative frequency of F = (8+6)/28 = 14/28 = 0.5

relative frequency of f = (8+6)/28 = 0.5

Therefore the allele frequencies in the palm tree population is

0.5 F, 0.5 f

When in equilibrium we have

However the FF has the product of F×F which is = F² = 0.29 so the frequency of F = √(0.29) = 0.535≈ 0.5

The frequency of Ff is Ff or fF =  0.43 since there is equal number of each allele in Ff we have fF or Ff = Ff = 0.43

Which hives 0.43/2 = F =f ≈ 0.2

To  

and ff = 0.29 so that f = 0.535 ≈ 0.5

Therefore f = F  = 0.5 + 0.2 = 0.7

Which of the following is a proportional relationship? y = 8x
Elenna [48]

Comparing to it's standard form, that is, of a monomial, a proportional relationship is given by:

y = 8x.

<h3>What is a proportional relationship?</h3>

A proportional relationship is a function in which the output variable is given by the input variable multiplied by a constant of proportionality, that is:

y = kx

In which k is the constant of proportionality.

From the above standard form, it is found that a proportional relationship is a monomial going through (0,0), hence one example is given by:

y = 8x.

A researcher wishes to see if the five ways (drinking decaffeinated beverages, taking a nap, going for a walk, eating a sugary s
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

\chi^2 = \frac{(21-12)^2}{12}+\frac{(16-12)^2}{12}+\frac{(10-12)^2}{12}+\frac{(8-12)^2}{12}+\frac{(5-12)^2}{12}=13.833

p_v = P(\chi^2_{4} >13.833)=0.00785

And we can find the p value using the following excel code:

"=1-CHISQ.DIST(13.833,4,TRUE)"

Since the p value is lower than the significance level we can reject the null hypothesis at 5% of significance, and we can conclude that the  drowsiness are NOT equally distributed among office workers .

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A chi-square goodness of fit test "determines if a sample data matches a population".

A chi-square test for independence "compares two variables in a contingency table to see if they are related. In a more general sense, it tests to see whether distributions of categorical variables differ from each another".

Assume the following dataset:

Method   Beverage   Nap   Walk   Snack   Other

Number       21             16       10         8         5

The total on this case is 60

We need to conduct a chi square test in order to check the following hypothesis:

H0: Drowsiness are equally distributed among office workers

H1: Drowsiness IS NOT equally distributed among office workers

The level of significance assumed for this case is \alpha=0.1

The statistic to check the hypothesis is given by:

\chi^2 = \sum_{i=1}^n \frac{(O_i -E_i)^2}{E_i}

The table given represent the observed values, we just need to calculate the expected values with the following formula E_i = \frac{total}{5}

And the calculations are given by:

E_{Beverage} =\frac{60}{5}=12

E_{Nap} =\frac{60}{5}=12

E_{Walk} =\frac{60}{5}=12

E_{Snack} =\frac{60}{5}=12

E_{Other} =\frac{60}{5}=12

And the expected values are given by:

Method   Beverage   Nap   Walk   Snack   Other

Number       12             12       12         12         12

And now we can calculate the statistic:

\chi^2 = \frac{(21-12)^2}{12}+\frac{(16-12)^2}{12}+\frac{(10-12)^2}{12}+\frac{(8-12)^2}{12}+\frac{(5-12)^2}{12}=13.833

Now we can calculate the degrees of freedom for the statistic given by:

df=(catgories-1)=(5-1)=4

And we can calculate the p value given by:

p_v = P(\chi^2_{4} >13.833)=0.00785

And we can find the p value using the following excel code:

"=1-CHISQ.DIST(13.833,4,TRUE)"

Since the p value is lower than the significance level we can reject the null hypothesis at 5% of significance, and we can conclude that the  drowsiness are NOT equally distributed among office workers .

What is the Volume of a hexagonal pyramid shown if the hexagon has a side length of 4 inches and the height of the pyramid is 12
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

  • 166.24 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Volume formula:</u>

  • V = 1/3 Bh, B-base area, h- height

<u>Base area:</u>

  • B = 3√3a² / 2 = 3√3*4² / 2 = 41.57 in (rounded)

<u>Volume:</u>

  • V = 1/3*41.56*12 = 166.24 in³
