Gladstone Company tracks the number of units purchased and sold throughout each accounting period but applies its inventory costing method at the end of each period, as if it uses a periodic inventory system. Assume its accounting records provided the following information at the end of the annual accounting period, December 31.

Transactions Units Unit Cost
Beginning inventory, January 1 2,700 $ 45
Transactions during the year:
a. Purchase, January 30 3,050 60

c. Purchase, May 1 1,750 75
d. Sale, August 31 ($100 each) (2,000 )


Assuming that for Specific identification method (item 1d) the March 14 sale was selected two-fifths from the beginning inventory and three-fifths from the purchase of January 30. Assume that the sale of August 31 was selected from the remainder of the beginning inventory, with the balance from the purchase of May 1.


Required:

Fill in needed code to finish Mastermind program in Python 3.7 syntax

Plays the game of Mastermind.
The computer chooses 4 colored pegs (the code) from the colors
Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, Turquoise, Magenta.
There can be more than one of each color, and order is important.

The player guesses a series of 4 colors (the guess).

The computer compares the guess to the code, and tells the player how
many colors in the guess are correct, and how many are in the correct
place in the code. The hint is printed as a 4-character string, where
* means correct color in correct place
o means correct color in incorrect place
- fills out remaining places to make 4

The player is allowed to make 12 guesses. If the player guesses the colors
in the correct order before all 12 guesses are used, the player wins.

From the window of a building, a ball is tossed from a height y0 above the ground with an initial velocity of 8.40 m/s and angle of 25.0° below the horizontal. It strikes the ground 6.00 s later.

(a) If the base of the building is taken to be the origin of the coordinates, with upward the positive y-direction, what are the initial coordinates of the ball? (Use the following as necessary: y0. Assume SI units. Do not substitute numerical values; use variables only.) xi = Correct: Your answer is correct. yi = Correct: Your answer is correct.

(b) With the positive x-direction chosen to be out the window, find the x- and y-components of the initial velocity. vi, x = 7.61 Correct: Your answer is correct. m/s vi, y = -3.55 Correct: Your answer is correct. m/s

(c) Find the equations for the x- and y-components of the position as functions of time. (Use the following as necessary: y0 and t. Assume SI units.) x = Correct: Your answer is correct. m y = Correct: Your answer is correct. m

(d) How far horizontally from the base of the building does the ball strike the ground? 45.68 Correct: Your answer is correct. m

(e) Find the height from which the ball was thrown. 197.88 Correct: Your answer is correct. m

(f) How long does it take the ball to reach a point 10.0 m below the level of launching? 1.4 Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect.

Can you help me with (f)?

A gas chromatogram of the organic components of a sample of beer using a column that separates compounds on the basis of their relative boiling points provides a GC trace with several peaks. Two of the smaller peaks, with retention times of 9.56 and 16.23 minutes, are believed to be ethyl acetate and ethyl butyrate, respectively.

a. From the above information, which component of the sample, ethyl acetate or ethyl butyrate, elutes faster? What are the reported boiling points of these two substances?

b. What GC experiment(s) could you perform to confirm the identity of the peaks at 9.56 and 16.23 minutes?

c. Suggest two ways in which you could adjust the conditions of the experiment so as to reduce the retention time for all components in the sample.

Genetics:

1) Gametogenesis in Neuropsora is different from gametogenesis in humans and fruit flies in that it includes:

a) Only Meiosis II (i.e., Meiosis I does not occur)

b) Mitosis

c) Unordered gametes

d) Only Meiosis I (i.e., Meiosis II does not occur)

2) Assume that a true-breeding female with the dominant phenotype is crossed to a true-breeding male with the recessive phenotype (Generation 0). Female offspring are then backcrossed to males with the recessive phenotype (Generation 1). This process is then repeated, with each new generation created by crossing the female offspring from the previous backcross generation to males with the recessive phenotype. If this trait is controlled by a maternal effect gene, in which backcross generation will some of the females used for the backcross have the recessive phenotype?

a) 4

b) None. The recessive phenotype will never reappear with this crossing scheme.

c) 1

d) 3

e) 2

3) Consider the following parental cross, involving genes A and B that are located 10 cM apart on the same chromosome:

AB/AB x ab/ab

If the F1 individuals are backcrossed to the ab/ab parent, what percentage of the offspring are expected to have the genotype ab/ab?

Express your answer as an integer between 0 and 100.

4) Consider a dihybrid cross in which one allele at each of the two genes contributes a value of 2 to a trait whereas the other allele contributes 0.

What proportion of offspring are expected to have a phenotype of 4?

Enter your answer as a decimal with two places (e.g., 0.10 or 0.01).
