First, I would solve the second parenthesis.
(4xy^3)^2
Distribute
(4^2 x^2 y^6)
4 x 4 = 16
Now, combine like terms
3x^2 x 4x^2 = 12x^4
y^2 x y^6 = y^12
So, the answer would be 12x^4 y^12
Hmm actually I'm not sure. I did this about two years ago so I don't really remember sorry if this is really wrong
Answer:
The correct answer is 375 purple flowers.
Step-by-step explanation:
If all the F1 generation from true-breeding parents are purple than the genotype would be heterozygous i.e., Pp and Pp. Here P indicates the dominant allele which produces purple flower and p indicates the recessive allele of white flower.
So if we will cross the F 1 generation than the genotype would be PP, Pp, Pp, pp. That means 3 out of 4 offspring would be purple because three genotypes out of four have dominant purple allele(P).
So if out of 4 flower 3 is purple than according to calculation out of 500 flower 375 offspring would be purple(3/4*500= 375). Therefore the correct answer is 375 purple flowers should be produced.
Answer:
As outdoor temperatures increased, residents' electric bills increased.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to set up 2 different equations if we are to solve for 2 unknowns. The first equation is x = y + 4. One number (x) is (=) 4 more than another (y + 4). Since we have determined that x is larger (cuz it's 4 more than y), when we set up their difference, we are going to subtract y from x cuz x is bigger. The second equation then is

. In our first equation we said that x = y + 4, so let's sub that value in for x in the second equation:

. Expand that binomial to get

. Of course the y squared terms cancel each other out leaving us with 8y + 16 = 64. Solving for y we get that y = 6. Subbing 6 in for y in our first equation, x = 6 + 4 tells us that x = 10. Yay!
