The genotypes of 2 guinea pigs, for 2 traits are represented as AABB and aabb. The guinea pigs are mated and the offspring eventually mate with eachother. Of the second generation, what genotypes would be phenotypically different from the originals?

To work through the question, we need to remember that there are 2 traits or characteristics we are looking at for the guinea pigs - A/a and B/b. We need to work out the different ways the alleles can pair f...

Solve the simultaneous equations: 2x + 3y = 5 and 3x + 4y = 12

2x + 3y = 52. 3x + 4y = 12 Firstly, you want to have the same amount of x variables, or y variables. To get the same x, we multiply 1. by 3, and multiply 2. by 2, giving us: 3. 6x + 9y = 154. 6x + 8y = 24 No...

We define the digit sum of a non-negative integer to be the sum of its digits. For example, the digit sum of 123 is 1 + 2 + 3 = 6. Let n be a positive integer with n < 10. How many positive integers less than 1000 have digit sum equal to n?

First we should consider how many positive integers less than 100 have digit sum equal to n. The answer should be relatively straight forward for this - it is n+1.For example, if n = 3 then we can have 03,12...
