two objects and recorded whether or not the dog being tested correctly chose the object indicated. A four-year-old male beagle named Augie participated in this study. He chose the correct object 42 out of 70 times when the experimenter leaned towards the correct object.
(a) (2 points) Let the parameter of interest, π, represent the probability that the long-run probability that Augie chooses correctly. Researches are interested to see if Augie understands human body cues (better than gussing).

If Augie repeats this process many times, then about 95% of the intervals produced will capture the true proportion of times of choosing the correct objective.
About 95% times Augie chooses the correct objective.
If Augie repeats this process and constructs 20 intervals from separate independent sam- ples, we can expect about 19 of those intervals to contain the true proportion Augie chooses the correct objective.

7.Directions: You are part of a fireworks crew assembling a local fireworks display.
There are two parts to the fireworks platforms:
...
rts to the fireworks platforms: one part is on the ground and the
other part is on top of a building. You are going to graph all of your results on one
coordinate plane. Make sure to label each graph with its equation. Use the following
equations to assist with this assignment.
• The function for objects dropped from a height where t is the time in
seconds, h is the height in feet at time it t, and 0 h is the initial height is
2
0 ht t h ( ) 16 =− + .
• The function for objects that are launched where t is the time in seconds, h is
the height in feet at time t, 0 h is the initial height, and 0 v is the initial velocity
in feet per second is 2
0 0 ht t vt h ( ) 16 =− + + .

Centimeter Grid Paper
Task 1
First, conduct some research to help you with later portions of this portfolio
assessment.
• Find a local building and estimate its height. How tall do you think the
building is?
• Use the Internet to find some initial velocities for different types of fireworks.
What are some of the initial velocities that you found?
Task 2
Respond to the following items.
1. While setting up a fireworks display, you have a tool at the top of the
building and need to drop it to a coworker below.
a. How long will it take the tool to fall to the ground? (Hint: use the first
equation that you were given above, 2
0 ht t h ( ) 16 =− + . For the building’s
height, use the height of the building that you estimated in Task 1.)
b. Draw a graph that represents the path of this tool falling to the
ground. Be sure to label your axes with a title and a scale. Your graph
should show the height of the tool, h, after t seconds have passed.
Label this line “Tool”.

...
tarting the process of meiosis. Draw the chromosomes, depicting them inside the cell, as you would expect them to appear during Metaphase I. (Note: there is more than one correct answer for this prompt. You only need to draw one of the answers.)
2.How many copies of gene A are present in this parent cell during Metaphase I?
3.How many total chromosomes would you have after DNA replication (synthesis)?
4.While examining a specific tissue in this organism, Bridget noticed some cells with more than one nucleus (this is commonly found in many species, including humans!). What could have happened during the process of cell division to yield these multinucleate cells?
5.In one of her harebrained experiments, Dr. Milam remembers treating some cells from one of her organisms with a drug that resulted in the cell being unable to replace RNA primers with DNA. Which protein in the cells was most likely affected by this drug treatment?
6.In another one of her experiments, Dr. Milam treated cells with a different drug that caused an adenosine in gene A to be paired with a cytosine instead of a thymine during DNA replication. However, Dr. Milam remembers that the amino acid sequence of the protein product of gene A wasn’t actually changed. How could you explain this observation?

m 2
After graduating from AUD, Salman plans to start a book publishing company in the Media City. He did some research and found that the printer will cost Dh 230,000. He estimated that the variable cost per book is Dh 170 and the selling price is Dh 390.
a. How many books must he sell to break even? Also calculate the breakeven in dirham.
b. In addition to the costs given above, if he wants to pay himself a salary of Dh 15,400 per year, what is her breakeven point in units and dirham?
c. In the first three months of his business, he sold 400 books. Suddenly the printer breaks down. He spent Dh 25000 to fix the printer. In addition to 400 books sold, how many more books she should sell to breakeven? Assume that this part of the question is independent, and she does not draw any salary.
Problem 8
A furniture store makes tables and chairs from plywood and glass. The store has 30 units of plywood, 24 units of glass. Each table requires 7 units of plywood three units of glass, whereas each chair requires three units of plywood and two units of glass. The demand for chairs is between 2 and 4. The ratio between the table and chair is at least 1 to 2. A table earns $225 in profit and a chair, $145. The store also wants a minimum profit of $5000. The store wants to determine the number of tables and chairs to make in order to maximize profit. Formulate a linear programming model for this problem

12.How to calculate the probability of "A" given multiple other events? Example, let's say i have a deck of 10
...
k of 10 cards numbered 1-10. I draw 5 cards (each time i draw i put the card back and shuffle). The numbers were 8, 2, 4, 9, and 4. What is the probability that it will be 4 on the 6th time i draw? I know each card has a 10% chance of being drawn. I also know the probability of a 10% event happening twice is 1%. But wouldnt the odds be lower since i drew 4 a couple trials earlier? How exactly would i calculate that. If there is an online calculator that executes the answer id like to know. Just a college student who craves probability. :)

You can draw the tree electronically, or draw it by hand and scan or photograph a copy—or use any other appropriate means you wish.
2. How many homoplasies are in the tree? Give the nucleotide position number(s) and tell what character states were independently derived in which species.
3. Two major clades are revealed by the tree. List the species in each clade. What can you say in general about the geographic distribution of each clade?
4. In cases where two species of Map Turtle occupy the same river system, are those species each other’s nearest relatives? Considering their phylogeny and distribution, what speciation events (including such factors as migration, vicariance, etc.) would you predict led to the species found in these rivers and their current distributions?
