Resplendent quetzal (Pharomachrus mocinno) is a beautiful bird species that lives in the tropical forests of Central America. Assuming that you started a breeding program and you would like to breed resplendent quetzal to produce longer tails. You measured 50 resplendent quetzals and obtained a mean tail length of 85.4 cm. You selected 10 resplendent quetzals with longest tails as breeders. The mean tail length of the breeders is 91.2 cm. After mating, offspring of the resplendent quetzal breeders have a mean tail length of 87.7 cm. What is the heritability of tail length in this resplendent quetzal population

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The value is  [tex]H  =0.3966[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  sample size is  n =  50

  The  mean tail is  [tex]\= x  =  85.4 \cm[/tex]

  The  number  of resplendent quetzals selected as breeders  is  [tex]k =  10[/tex]

   The  mean tail breeders  is  [tex]\= x_1 =  91.2 \ cm[/tex]

   The mean tail of the breeders after mating  [tex]\=  x_2  =  87.7 \ cm[/tex]

   

Generally the selection differential is mathematically represented as

    [tex]D  =  \= x_1 -  \= x [/tex]

=>  [tex]D  = 91.2-  85.4 [/tex]

=>  [tex]D  = 5.8 \  cm [/tex]

Generally the selection response  is mathematically represented as

       [tex]S =  \=  x_2  - \= x[/tex]

=>    [tex]S =  87.7   - 85.4[/tex]

=>    [tex]S =2.3 \  cm [/tex]

Generally the  heritability of tail length in this resplendent quetzal population is mathematically represented as

     [tex]H  =  h^2 =  \frac{S}{D} [/tex]

=>   [tex]H  =  h^2 =  \frac{2.3}{5.8} [/tex]

=>  [tex]H  =  h^2 =  \frac{2.3}{5.8}  [/tex]

=>  [tex]H  =  h^2 = 0.3966/tex]

Find the missing side and angle indicated in the picture. Round your answers to the nearest tenth.
Enter your answer as equations separated by a comma.

Answers

Answer:

AC = 30 in

m∠B = 36,9°

m∠A = 53,1°

Step-by-step explanation:

1 AC

You gan get AC with the pythagorean theorem:

a²+b²=c²

We are looking for side b of the triangle, so the equation is rearranged for b.

BC²+AC²=AB²    | -BC²

AC²=AB²-BC²

AC=√(AB²-BC²)

Now the given values are used:

b=√(50²-40²)

b=√(2500-1600)

b=√900

b=30 in

2 m∠B

This angle can be calculated using the sine law:

sine(angle)=opposite cathete/hypothenus

We are looking for angle m∠B of the triangle.

sin(m∠B)=AC/AB

sin(m∠B)=30in/50in

sin(m∠B)=0,6

m∠B=36,9°

3 m∠A

This angle can be calculated using the sine law:

sine(angle)=opposite cathete/hypothenus

We are looking for angle m∠A of the triangle.

sin(m∠A)=BC/AB

sin(m∠A)=40in/50in

sin(m∠A)=0,8

m∠A=53,1°

In the game of Pick-A-Ball, there are 10 colored balls: 2 red, 4 white, and 4 blue. The balls have been placed into a small bucket, and the bucket has been shaken thoroughly. You will be asked to reach into the bucket without looking and select 2 balls. Because the bucket has been shaken thoroughly, you can assume that each individual ball is selected at random with equal likelihood of being chosen. It is common in games of chance to be rewarded for obtaining unlikely results. For example, in the game of poker, hands that are less likely to occur tend to trump hands that are more likely to occur. That same concept applies in this game. It costs $10 to play Pick-A-Ball, and your prize is the reciprocal of the probability of obtaining your exact sequence of results, expressed in dollars. For example, if the probability of obtaining your exact sequence of results is 0.10, your prize is 1/0.10 and you break even. Therefore, to make a positive profit from playing Pick-A-Ball, the probability of obtaining your results must be ower than 0.10. When you reach into the bucket, your result is based on a simulation. In a simulation, random events are modeled in such a way that the simulated outcomes closely match real-world outcomes. In this simulation, your result is simulated based on the robabiliies of obtaining a ball of a particular color. Now, close your eyes! Reach into the bucket, and pick a ball.

Hello,

This question you posted is incomplete but I was able to get the complete question. I hope it would be of help to you!

1. What is the probability of selecting the color of ball that you just selected?___

Don't put your first ball back in the bucket now reach again, no peeking and pick your second ball.( Click the pick a ball icon to simulate reaching into the bucket and select your next ball)

2. What is the probability of selecting the color of ball that you just did_____

3.what is the probability of obtaining your exact sequence of result?____

4. What is your prize____

5. What is your profit from pick a ball___

Answer:

1. The probability of selecting the color of ball that you picked. (White)

The color is white. And total balls are 10

= 4/10

= 0.4

2. After first ball was picked out, you now have 3 whites left and total balls 9. probability of selecting the color of ball that you picked = 3/9

= 0.3333

3. Probability of getting exact sequence

= 0.3333x0.4

= 0.1333

4. The prize = 1/0.1333

= 7.5

5. The price would be 7.5 - 10

= -2.5

You have space in your garden for 50 small flowering bulbs. Bulb A cost $0.45 each and
bulb B cost $0.65 each. Your budget allows you to spend $26.90 on bulbs. How many of bulb A and how many of bulb B can you buy?
_______number of bulb A
_______number of bulb B

Answers

Answer:

A = 28

B = 22

Step-by-step explanation:

All money will be recorded in pennies

Let A = the 45 Bulb

Let B = the 65 bulb

A + B = 50                                  (1)

45A + 65B = 2690                    (2)

Multiply (1) by   45 and subtract that from (2)

45A + 65B = 2690

45A + 45B = 2250        Subtract

          20B =   440

              B = 22

A + B = 50

A + 22 = 50

A = 50 - 22

B = 28

Check

45*28 + 22* 65  =

1260 +  1430 = 2690

The world population at the beginning of 1980 was 4.5 billion. Assuming the population continued to grow at the rate of approximately 1.3% per year, find a function Q(t) giving the population of the world (in billions) as a function of time t (in years)

Answers

Answer:

The function Q(t) = 4.5 billion (1.013)^t will give the population in t years

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to write a function

The growth percentage is 1.3% = 1.3/100 = 0.013

The function Q(t) will be an exponential function and it will be represented as;

Q(t) = I ( 1 + r)^t

where I is the initial world population at 1980 = 4.5 billion

r is the growth percentage = 1.3% = 0.013

t is the time in years

Substituting these values, we have;

Q(t) = 4.5 billion (1 + 0.013)^t

Q(t) = 4.5 billion (1.013)^t

Adjacent angles that form a linear pair are supplementary angles. True or false?

Answers

Answer:

FALSE

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It's true. If you have a straight line and you put the endpoint of a ray on that line and let the ray go in the direction it is pointing, 2 angles will be formed unless the ray is part of the line.  

The way the question is worded, you have a linear pair which means there are 2 distinct angles whose vertex is on a line.

That's the very definition of supplementary.

We know that all angles in a triangle will add up to 180°. Since we already know two out of the 3 angles (47° and 90° - right angles are always 90°) we can add those two up and subtract from 180 to find out the missing angle length.

Answers

Solution :-

mAGF + mCGE + m∠AGC = 180° ( linear pair )

84° + 64° + m∠AGC = 180°

148° + m∠AGC = 180°

m∠AGC = 180 - 148

m∠AGC = 32°

As m∠AGC and m∠DGB are vertically opposite angles , their angle measure will be equal .

Which means :-

m∠AGC = m∠DGB ( vertically opposite angles )

m∠DGB = 32°

Therefore :-try:- m∠DGB = 32° Reason :-vertical angles

In the diagram shown, if m<AGF  =  64°, m<CGE  =  84°, then m<DGB    =    32°

From the figure shown:

m<AGF  =  64° (Given)

m<CGE  =  84° (Given)

m<AGF   =  m<BGE  (Vertically opposite angles are equal)

m<AGF  =  m<BGE   =  64°

m<CGE  +  m<BGE  +  m<DGB   =  180° (Sum of angles on a straight line)

84   +  64  +   m<DGB   =   180

148   +   m<DGB    =   180

m<DGB    =   180   -  148

m<DGB    =    32°

Therefore, in the diagram shown, if m<AGF  =  64°, m<CGE  =  84°, then m<DGB    =    32°
