hi, attached is the question . plz check it out
here
sorry ,
@SithsAndGiggles - could u have a look here
I see a bunch of information but no goal. What's the question? Find \(P(A_1\cap A_2)\) and \(P(B_1\cap B_2)\), or some other event?
@SithsAndGiggles find a)P(A) b) p(A ∩B) c)p(AUB) d)p(A' ∩B) p(AlB)
F) what is the probability if that the selected person has red hair
@douglaswinslowcooper
Now, \(P(A)\) is the proportion of people with gene \(A\) to the total number of people in the group. How many people possess gene \(A\)?
Sorry, slight mistake: Adding some "total" rows and columns will help. \[\begin{matrix} &&\underline{A_2}&\underline{B_2}&\underline{\text{Other}}&\underline{\text{Total}}\\ A_1&|& 5&25&30&\bf{60}\\ B_1&|&7&63&35&105\\ \text{Other}&|&20&15&800&835\\ \text{Total}&|&\overline{32}&\overline{103}&\overline{865}&\overline{1000} \end{matrix}\]
\[\begin{matrix} &&\underline{A_2}&\underline{B_2}&\underline{\text{Other}}&\underline{\text{Total}}\\ A_1&|& \color{red}5&\color{red}{25}&\color{red}{30}&60\\ B_1&|&\color{red}7&63&35&105\\ \text{Other}&|&\color{red}{20}&15&800&835\\ \text{Total}&|&\overline{32}&\overline{103}&\overline{865}&\overline{1000} \end{matrix}\] The total number of people here is 87, so \(P(A)=\dfrac{87}{1000}\). Notice that you can get the same result by adding the corresponding totals MINUS 5 from \(A_1A_2\). (We'd be double-counting that entry in the table otherwise.)
For \(P(A\cap B)\), we only consider the table entries that have one \(A\) gene and one \(B\) gene: \[\begin{matrix} &&\underline{A_2}&\underline{B_2}&\underline{\text{Other}}&\underline{\text{Total}}\\ A_1&|& 5&\color{red}{25}&30&60\\ B_1&|&\color{red}7&63&35&105\\ \text{Other}&|&20&15&800&835\\ \text{Total}&|&\overline{32}&\overline{103}&\overline{865}&\overline{1000} \end{matrix}\] which gives us \(P(A\cap B)=\dfrac{32}{1000}\).
For \(P(A\cup B)\):\[\begin{matrix} &&\underline{A_2}&\underline{B_2}&\underline{\text{Other}}&\underline{\text{Total}}\\ A_1&|& \color{red}5&\color{red}{25}&\color{red}{30}&60\\ B_1&|&\color{red}7&\color{red}{63}&\color{red}{35}&105\\ \text{Other}&|&\color{red}{20}&\color{red}{15}&800&835\\ \text{Total}&|&\overline{32}&\overline{103}&\overline{865}&\overline{1000} \end{matrix}\] For \(P(A'\cap B)\), assuming \(A'\) denotes the event that \(A\) does not occur: \[\begin{matrix} &&\underline{A_2}&\underline{B_2}&\underline{\text{Other}}&\underline{\text{Total}}\\ A_1&|& 5&25&30&60\\ B_1&|&7&\color{red}{63}&\color{red}{35}&105\\ \text{Other}&|&20&\color{red}{15}&\color{red}{800}&835\\ \text{Total}&|&\overline{32}&\overline{103}&\overline{865}&\overline{1000} \end{matrix}\] To find \(P(A|B)\), you can use the conditional probability formula: \[P(A|B)=\frac{P(A\cap B)}{P(B)}\]
The last part depends on how we interpret the inheritance pattern for red hair. Is \(A\) completely dominant over \(B\)? Does having an allele combination consisting of one dominant and one regressive allele like \(A_1B_2\) mean the person has red hair?
@SithsAndGiggles For p(A'∩B) dont you think that we do not need to add up other i mean (A'∩B)= 15+63+35 not 800
since 800 has no intersection with B's
@yama_aryayee, yes correct. I got caught up with the \(A'\) part. Thanks
