Linear Algebra: Permutation Matrices Let M be the matrix {{0,0,0,1,0}, {0,0,1,0,0}, {0,1,0,0,0}, {0,0,0,0,1}{1,0,0,0,0}}. What i

Multiplying M by any matrix A would return new matrix, B, in which

• the 1st row of B is equal to the 4th row of A,

• the 2nd row of B is equal to the 3rd row of A,

• the 3rd row of B is equal to the 2nd row of A,

• the 4th row of B is equal to the 5th row of A, and

• the 5th row of B is equal to the 1st row of A.

The pattern here is

1 => 4 => 5 => 1

2 => 3 => 2

Let {4, 3, 2, 5, 1} denote the matrix M, where each number refers to the row of the identity matrix, I.

Using this notation, the pattern above gives

M² = {5, 2, 3, 1, 4}

M³ = {1, 3, 2, 4, 5}

M⁴ = {4, 2, 3, 5, 1}

M⁵ = {5, 3, 2, 1, 4}

M⁶ = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}

so that <em>n</em> = 6.

(Notice that the first cycle has length 3 and the second one has length 2; the minimum <em>n</em> needed here is then LCM(2, 3) = 6.)

Snapdragon plants have a gene that determines the presence of chlorophyll. The dominant allele (C) causes the plant to make chlo
AleksAgata [21]

Answer: i)For X = (0,1) then P(x) = (1/3, 2/3)

              ii) Then p=(2/3) as n=8

              iii) 0.06828

Step-by-step explanation:

Use binomial distribution:

Probability of being yellow (by having 1 recessive allele) is 2/3. This is a binomial distribution with p=2/3. And since there are 8 selections, our n is 8. So p=(2/3), n=8.

Recall that in binomial distribution P(X=x) = C(n,x) × p^x × (1-p)^n-x.

So for 3 out of 8, it means x=3 and n=8.  

Our equation becomes P(exactly three Snapdragon are yellow) = P(X=3) = (8C3) × (2/3)³ × (1/3)5 = 0.06828

Two cards are drawn without replacement from a standard deck of cards. What is the probability that the second one is a black ca
forsale [732]

Answer:

The probability is 169/2652

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of cards in a deck of cards is 52

In each deck of cards, there are 13 black cards and 13 spade cards

The probability of selecting a spade card will be;

13/52 = 1/4

Without replacement, we are left with 51 cards and the probability of selecting a black card will now be 13/51

So the probability of the second card being a black card if the first is spade will be ;

13/52 * 13/51

= 169/2,652
