Ray is 27 years old today. He is a conservative person, and is thinking about his retirement when he reaches the age of 70. He decides to invest $7,000 at regular annual intervals for 15 years, starting from today. The fund that he is investing in will give him a return of 7.4% per annum. He will then leave the money in the account to grow further until he retires when he is 70 years old. How much will Ray have in the fund when he turns 70?

Use the preamble below to answer Questions 27 and 28
In the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, red eye colour (R) is dominant to white eye colour (r). A
student wishes to perform a test cross to determine whether a female red eyed fruit fly is
homozygous or heterozygous for the eye colour. The student mates the female fruit fly with a red
eye coloured male and studies the offspring, which are 100% red eye. The student concludes that
the genotype of the female fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster is "RR".
27. What mistake(s) did the student make if any? Briefly explain in bullet points. [5 Marks]
28. Suggest the best way by which a breeder could successfully maintain a supply of red eye
Drosophila melanogaster of the variety that is heterozygous for eye colour. [5 Marks]
Use the preamble below to answer Questions 29 and 30
In a breed of cattle, rough coat is dominant over smooth, and black coat is codominant to red. What
do the following statements mean?
29. The loci of the two pair of genes concerned are on the same pair of chromosomes (assuming
no crossing over). [5 Marks]
30. The loci of the two pair of genes concerned are on different pairs of chromosomes.
[5 Marks]

Consider a sample of 49 football​ games, where 27 of them were won by the home team. Use a 0.10 significance level to test the claim that the probability that the home team wins is greater than​ one-half. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses for this test. Choose the correct answer below. A. Upper H 0​: p equals 0.5 Upper H 1​: p less than 0.5 B. Upper H 0​: p equals 0.5 Upper H 1​: p greater than 0.5 C. Upper H 0​: p equals 0.5 Upper H 1​: p does not equal 0.5 D. Upper H 0​: p greater than 0.5 Upper H 1​: p equals 0.5 Identify the test statistic for this hypothesis test. The test statistic for this hypothesis test is nothing. ​(Round to two decimal places as​ needed.) Identify the​ P-value for this hypothesis test. The​ P-value for this hypothesis test is nothing. ​(Round to three decimal places as​ needed.) Identify the conclusion for this hypothesis test.

A.

Fail to reject

Upper H0.

There

is

sufficient evidence to support the claim that the probability of the home team winning is greater than​ one-half.

B.

Reject

Upper H0.

There

is

sufficient evidence to support the claim that the probability of the home team winning is greater than​ one-half.

C.

Reject

Upper H0.

There

is not

sufficient evidence to support the claim that the probability of the home team winning is greater than​ one-half.

D.
