. A husband and wife have a 2/3 probability of passing on brown eyes to their children. If they have three children, what is the probability that the children will all have brown eyes?
X ~ Bin ( n, p)
Where n = 3 , p = 2/3
Binomial probability distribution is
P(X) = nCx * px *( 1 - p)n-x
P(X = 3) = 3C3 * ( 2/3)3 * (1 - 2/3)0
= 0.2963

If both a husband and wife carry genes for brown and blue eyes, genetic theory states that the probability the couple will have a blue-eyed child is 0:25. Suppose the couple plans to have 4 children. (a) Find the probability that the couple will have i. exactly two children with blue eyes ii. two or fewer children with blue eyes. (b) Find: i. the mean (expected) number of children with blue eyes, ii. the variance and standard deviation.
The probability that brown-eyed parents, both with the recessive gene for blue, will have a child with brown eyes is 0.65. If such parents have 6 children, what is the probability that they will have (A) All blue-eyed children? (B) Exactly 5 children with brown eyes? (C) At least 5 children with brown eyes?
The genes for dark eyes (black or brown) are usually dominant over genes for blue or gray eyes. A man with black eyes marries a woman with light gray eyes. They have two children, a boy with black eyes, and a girl with blue eyes. What are the genotypes of the man, his wife, and both children?
i need this quick pls 3. A father with brown eyes marries a woman with blue eyes, and all of their children have brown eyes. (We are going to assume that this is a monogenetic trait, but in reality, t is not.) a. Assign symbols for the possible alleles. Brown:_ b. Which allele is dominant? Complete a Punnett square for the cross that results in all the offspring (the F1 generation) Blue having a brown-eyed phenotype C. What are the...
There are 24 people. 9 have green eyes, 4 have brown eyes, 5 have hazel eyes, and 6 have blue eyes. 3 people are then selected at random without replacement. What is the probability that 2 people selected have the same eye color, and that the other person selected has a different eye color
If both husband and wife are known to be heterozygous for the autosomal recessive condition of albinism, what is the probability that among their four children, three will be normal and one will have albinism? I know that each child has a 3/4 probability of being normal and 1/4 probability of having albinism. So is the answer 3/4 * 3/4 * 3/4 * 1/4? Or do you just do 3/4 * 3/4 * 3/4?
In a region, 80% of the population have brown eyes. If 15 people are randomly selected, find the probability that at least 13 of them have brown eyes. Is it unusual to randomly select 15 people and find that at least 13 of them have brown eyes? Why or why not? The probability that at least 13 of the 15 people selected have brown eyes is (Round to three decimal places as needed.)
Problem 3 (10pts) Use the contingency table below to answer the fol Brown Eyes Not Brown Eyes Totals 80 150 230 30 Black Hair 50 Red Hair70 Totals 120 11 I) What is the probability that someone with black hair has brown eyes? 2) What is the probability that someone has black hair? 3) What is the probability that someone has brown eyes?
3. A husband and wife have normal vision. Both of their fathers are colorblind. What is the probability that their first child will be a) Normal son? b) Normal daughter? c) Colorblind son?
A survey asks, "If the husband in a family wants children, but the wife decides that she does not want any children, is it all right for the wife to refuse to have children?" Of 734 subjects, 559 said yes Find a 99% confidence interval for the population proportion who would say yes.
