An observational study of a group of students was conducted, and students were classified in two ways. First, they were each classified as to whether or not they were FullTime or PartTime. Second, they were each classified as to which of two colleges they were in, COS (college of sciences) or CBA (college of business administration). From that data, the following partial joint probability table was constructed.
| FullTime | PartTime | ||
| COS | 7/23 | 3/23 | ? |
| CBA | 8/23 | ? | 13/23 |
| 15/23 | 8/23 |

Please answer the following questions about the probability of drawing students at random from this group according to the table above. Please keep your answers as fractions (e.g., "3/7").

Sales of tablet computers at Ted Glickman's electronics store in Washington, D.C., over the past 10 weeks are shown in the table below: Week 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Demand 21 21 28 36 26 29 35 20 25 30 a)
The forecast for weeks 2 through 10 using exponential smoothing with alpha = 0.55 and a week 1 initial forecast of 21.0 are (round your responses to two decimal places): Week 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Demand 21 21 28 36 26 29 35 20 25 30
Forecast 21.0 21 21 24.85 30.98 28.24 28.65 32.14 25.46 25.20
b) For the forecast developed using exponential smoothing (alpha = 0.55 and initial forecast 21.0), the MAD = nothing sales (round your response to two decimal places).

Create a function called merge that takes two int vectors (x and y) as argument and returns an int vector (z) that is the result of merging the two vectors x and y. Here is an example to explain how the merge function works: If the vector x has the following values: 1 2 3 4 5, and the vector y has the following: 6 7 8 9 10 11 12, then the merging vector z will have: 1 6 2 7 3 8 4 9 5 10 11 12. This means: z[0] = x[0], z[1]=y[0], z[2]=x[1], z[3]=y[1], z[4]=x[2], z[5]=y[2],... If the size of the vector x is bigger than the size of the vector y, when x is entirely copied to z, the rest of x will be copied next. If y is bigger, the rest of y is copied when x is entirely copied to z.

Influential genes and proteins in dairy cattle:
Genetic methods have been used to examine regions of the dairy cattle genome that appear to have been under selection. A positive signature of selection in a given region implies the genes contained therein are potentially important for aspects of milk production such as yield.
Two such genes found to be of importance in dairy cattle are DGAT1 (which encodes the fat biosynthesis enzyme diacylglycerol o-acyltransferase 1) and GHR (which encodes the growth hormone receptor).
44. Why might these two genes be important for milk production?
