Problem 3) Butterflies show 3 phenotypes due to incomplete dominance at the D locus with alleles DY and DB giving green phenotype in heterozygotes and yellow and blue in homozygotes

a) A population of butterflies showed 49% yellow, and 51% blue and green. What percentage of the gametes for the next generation would contain the DB allele?

b) In another population only 1% of the butterflies are blue, What is the DY allele frequency?

c) If the butterflies were subject to predation by birds that could easily detect blue & yellow individuals what effect would you expect this to have on the genotype and allele frequencies over time? Indicate possible percentages.

Question 5 options: A high school principal wishes to estimate how well his students are doing in math. Using 40 randomly chosen tests, he finds that 77% of them received a passing grade. Create a 99% confidence interval for the population proportion of passing test scores. Enter the lower and upper bounds for the interval in the following boxes, respectively. You may answer using decimals rounded to four places or a percentage rounded to two. Make sure to use a percent sign if you answer using a percentage.

Question 6 options: An online retailer wants to estimate the number of visitors that click on their advertisement from a particular website. Of 978 page views in a day, 8% of the users clicked on the advertisement. Create a 90% confidence interval for the population proportion of visitors that click on the advertisement. Enter the lower and upper bounds for the interval in the following boxes, respectively. You may answer using decimals rounded to four places or a percentage rounded to two. Make sure to use a percent sign if you answer using a percentage.

In one school district, there are 89 elementary school (K-5) teachers, of which 18 are male (or male-identifying).

In one school district, there are 89 elementary school (K-5) teachers, of which 18 are male (or male-identifying). In a neighboring school district, there are 102 elementary teachers, of which 17 are male. A policy researcher would like to calculate the 99% confidence interval for the difference in proportions of male teachers.

To keep the signs consistent for this problem, we will calculate all differences as p1−p2. That is, start with the percentage from the first school district and then subtract the percentage from the second district. Failing to do so may end up with “correct” answers being marked as wrong.

Point estimate for the percentage males in the first district:
      ˆp1=
Point estimate for the percentage males in the second district:
      ˆp2=
Point estimate for the difference in percentages between the two districts:
      ˆp1−ˆp2=

Estimate of the standard error for this sampling distribution (distribution of differences):
      √ˆp1(1−ˆp1)n1+ˆp2(1−ˆp2)n2=

Critical value for the 99% confidence level:
      zc.v.=

99% margin of error:
