P.38 Color Blindness in Men and Women The most common form of color blindness is an inability to distinguish red from green. However, this particular form of color blindness is much more common in men than in women (this is because the genes corresponding to the red and green receptors are located on the X- chromosome). Approximately 7% of American men and 0.4% of American women are red-green color-blind. (a) If an American male is selected at random, what is the probability that he is red-green color-blind? (b) If an American female is selected at random, what is the probability that she is NOT red-green color-blind? (c) If one man and one woman are selected at random, what is the probability that neither are red-green color-blind? (d) If one man and one woman are selected at random, what is the probability that at least one of them is red-green color-blind?
Percentage
A percentage is a number indicated as a fraction of 100. It is a dimensionless number often expressed using the symbol %.
Algebraic Expressions
In mathematics, an algebraic expression consists of constant(s), variable(s), and mathematical operators. It is made up of terms.
Numbers
Numbers are some measures used for counting. They can be compared one with another to know its position in the number line and determine which one is greater or lesser than the other.
Subtraction
Before we begin to understand the subtraction of algebraic expressions, we need to list out a few things that form the basis of algebra.
Addition
Before we begin to understand the addition of algebraic expressions, we need to list out a few things that form the basis of algebra.
