. Most Bengal tigers (Panthera tigris) are orange with black stripes. Occasionally, however, they can be white with black stripes. The white phenotype is recessive to orange. In one study, a white and an orange tiger were bred in a zoo. These 2 tigers eventually had 10 offspring: 4 white and 6 orange. What are the genotypes of the two parents? 6. If the orange tiger from the previous question is crossed with one of its orange offspring, what is the probability of obtaining a white tiger from the cross? 7. In snapdragons, a species of plant, red flower color is incompletely dominant over white, the heterozygotes being pink. If you want to produce seed that will yield only pink flowering plants, what would you cross? 8. George has type A blood and his wife Harriet has type B blood. They have a daughter with type O blood. What is the probability that their next child will have type AB blood?

The following table shows the number of students at a college who were offered teaching positions before graduation. Determine the probability of each event assuming that one of the students represented in the table is randomly selected. Offer No Offer Female 52 32 Male 75 27 Enter answers in fraction form. a. Student is a male who received a teaching position offer. The probability is b. Student is a female, and she did not receive a teaching position offer. The probability is c. Student received a teaching position offer or is a female. The probability is
Static Bayesian Games] We consider a games with 2 players. Player 1 has only asingle type; however, Player 2 can have two types I and D, each with probability 50%. Bothplayers have two actions available to them. The game has the following payoffs (P1 is the rowplayer, P2 the column player):

[Adverse Selection] Each of the two players receives an envelope, in which there is anamount of money that is equally distributed from $0, $1, $2, ..., $100. The amounts in twoenvelopes are independent. After receiving the envelope, each individual can check exactlyhow much money is put in his/her own envelope. Then each player has the option to exchangehis/her envelope for the other individual's prize. The decisions are made simultaneously. Ifboth individuals agree to exchange, then the envelopes are exchanged; otherwise, if at leastone player chooses not to exchange, each individual keeps his/her own envelope and receivesits attached sum of money.a. Model this game as a static Bayesian game (write the normal formrepresentation) and find the Bayesian Nash equilibrium.b. Consider a new game where the probability distribution of money in eachenvelope is changed. The amount is equal to $100 with probability 90%, and is equalto each number in $0, $1, $2, ... ,$99 with probability 0.1%.…
The leaders of the Planetary Council have different preferences about the strength of punishment for Earth for destroying the Solar System. They have the following numbers of votes: Tarantoga 7, Trurl 3, Pirx 12, Tichy 4, and vote using a simple majority. From this information only, you can infer that (many answers may be correct): O Pirx and Tarantoga form a minimal winning coalition O The minimum weight winning coalition has 14 votes O There is no minimal size winning coalition with two leaders O Trurl and Pirx form a minimal connected winning coalition O Trurl and Pirx form a minimal range winning coalition O Tichy is not a member of any minimal connected winning coalition O There are four minimum winning coalitions O Tichy and Trurl do not form a minimal winning coalition

This problem involves empirical probability. The table shows the breakdown of 95 thousand single parents on active duty in the U.S. military in a certain year. All numbers are in thousands and rounded to the nearest thousand. Use the data in the table to find the probability that a randomly selected single parent in the U.S. military is in the Army. Male Female Total Army 24 10 34 Navy 27 8 35 Marine Corps 5 1 6 Air Force 146 20 Total 70 25 95 The probability that a randomly selected single parent in the U.S. military is in the Army is (Type an integer or decimal rounded to the nearest hundredth as needed.)
Governments often require people to obtain insurance; for example, all drivers are required to carry auto insurance to cover damages to others in the event of a crash. Homeowners are often required by banks to carry insurance on their home. (a) Why do these requirements exist? (b) Would they be necessary if people truly recognized the risk they faced? (c) One characteristic of an overconfident person is that she is continually surprised when what she thought was unlikely or

In June 2015, Gallup conducted a poll of a random sample of 14802 adults to determine the well-being of people living in the United States. One question asked, "Did you exercise at least 30 minutes for 3 or more days in the past week?" In the survey, 57.3% of males and 42.7% of females responded yes to this question. Which of the following is true about this scenario?A. 57:3% and 42.7% are both statistiesB. 57.3% and 42.7% are both parameter.C. If we took another random sample of 14802 adults, we would expect to get the exact same results.
When a new machine is functioning properly, only 6% of the items produced are defective. Assume that we will randomly select two parts produced on the machine and that we are interested in the number of defective parts found. (a) Describe the conditions under which this situation would be a binomial experiment. (Select all that apply.) For each part selected, the probability of a defective part being produced must be 0.06. The parts must be selected independently. The selection of a part is dependent on the first part selected. The number of successes and failures in this experiment are equal. The probability of choosing a part that is defective must be 0.94. (b) Draw a tree diagram similar to this section's example showing this problem as a two-trial experiment.
