Answer:

The product rule of probability tells that to determine the chances of independent events, such as the likelihood of inheriting a certain allele, probabilities are multiplied

Step-by-step explanation:

The product rule of probability states that the probability of independent events occurring together can be gotten by multiplying the probability of each event occurring alone.

The product rule is given as P(A*B) = P(A) *P(B).   Where A and B are two independent events. For example when picking cards from a deck of 52 cards, the probability of getting an ace is 4/52 = 1/13 (because there are 4 aces in a deck of 52 cards) . The probability of picking a heart is 13/52 = 1/4. Therefore the probability of picking the ace of hearts is 1/4*1/13 =1/52.

Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu. Polygon ABCD goes through a sequence of rigid transformations to form polygo
Viktor [21]

Answer:

The sequence of transformations involved is a reflection across the x axis, followed by a reflection across the y = x line

Step-by-step explanation:

The polygon ABCD is shown in the image attached. The coordinates of the polygon are A(-6, 6), B(-4, 6), C(-4, 4), D(-6, 2), while the polygon A'B'C'D' is at A'(-6, -6), B'(-6, -4), C'(-4, -4), D'(-2, -6)

A transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation are rotation, translation, dilation and rotation.

If a point O(x, y) is reflected across the x axis, the new coordinate is O'(x, -y).

If a point O(x, y) is reflected across the y = x line, the new coordinate is O'(y, x)

Hence if polygon ABCD is reflected across the x axis, the new coordinates are A*(-6, -6), B*(-4, -6), C*(-4, -4), D*(-6, -2). If a reflection across the y = x line, the new coordinates are A'(-6, -6), B'(-6, -4), C'(-4, -4), D'(-2, -6)

An animal park has lions, tigers and zebras. 20% of the animals are lions and half of the animals are zebras. If there are 120 a
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

36\ tigers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of lions

y ----> the number f tigers

z ----> the number of zebras

we know that

x+y+z=120 ----> equation A

Remember that

20\%=20/100=0.20

50\%=50/100=0.50

To find out the number of lions, multiply the total animals by the percentage of lions

x=0.20(120)=24\ lions

To find out the number of zebras, multiply the total animals by the percentage of zebras

z=0.50(120)=60\ zebras

Substitute the value of x and the value of z in equation A and solve for y

24+y+60=120

y+84=120

y=36\ tigers

After a certain medicine is ingested, its concentration in the bloodstream changes over time.
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

Every hour, the medicine concentration decays by a factor of 4%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between the elapsed time, <em>t</em>, in minutes, since the medicine was ingested, and its concentration in the bloodstream, <em>C</em> (<em>t</em>), is:

C(t)=61\cdot (0.96)^{t}

The decay function is:

y=a(1-r)^{t}

Here,

<em>y</em> = final amount

<em>a </em>= initial amount

<em>r</em> = decay rate

<em>t</em> = time

From the provided expression the decay rate is:

1-r=0.96\\r=1-0.96\\r=0.04

Thus, every hour, the medicine concentration decays by a factor of 4%.
