Answer:
(A) 0.0244
(B) 1 (not 1.47 as is calculated) since probability values are between 0 and 1; 0 and 1 inclusive
Step-by-step explanation:
The rare mutation only occurs in 1 generation, out of every 2048 generations. This implies that the next occurrence will fall in or within the next 2048 generations (2 generations in 4096 generations, will have the rare mutation).
(A) The probability of occurrence of this mutation at least once (at most infinity) in 50 generations of fruit flies will surely be less than, as 50 is less than 2048.
The accurate probability is gotten when 50 is divided by 2048
50÷2048 = 0.0244
(B) The probability of seeing this mutation at least once (at most infinity) in 3000 generations would have been 1.47 but for 3 reasons;
- The full question already tells that the mutation will occur once in every 2048 generations and 3000 is greater than 2048, hence there will be a sure occurrence within 3000 generations.
- Question (b) asks you to calculate the probability of seeing this mutation at least once in 3000 generations so, the probability is 1 (representing full probability).
- In probability theory or statistics, all probability values fall within 0 and 1; with 0 representing no occurrence at all and 1 representing full occurrence.
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
False ....a parameter is something YOU can change, like asking magazines if they are interested in sports, or interested in photography, or something else. So the 12% is a statistic.
Answer:
60.39 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
A Pac-Man poster which is having three fourth of a circle and there are two sides.
Diameter of circle = 18 inches
Sides of Pac-Man poster = 9 inches
To find:
Perimeter of the Pac-Man poster.
Solution:
Perimeter of a figure is nothing but equal to the periphery i.e. the outer area of the circle/figure.
Perimeter of a circle is given by the formula:
Perimeter = 
is the radius of the circle.
Radius is half of perimeter.
Perimeter of the Pac-Man poster = Perimeter of 
circle + 2 sides
Perimeter of the Pac-Man poster = 
+ 9+9 = 42.39+28 = <em>60.39 inches</em>
