Thanks for the response, but I guess I need to make this clearer. Since it's dihybrid, there are 16 children combinations. For example, each child's traits of both [non]colourblindness and [non]albinism have to be determined. One child could have both, another could have just one, another could have none...and all possible genotypes and phenotypes must be mentioned.

Oh well, it's due tomorrow, so these questions won't really matter after that. :)

Oh okay...that's what I was wondering about...that one is still pretty simple ^^ but I don't think you need it anymore....so I don't think I'll tackle it but then again...challengers are fun!!! Hmmm...I wasn't sure about how to express sex linked so I just did AaXX for the mother and Aaxx for the father...but I wouldn't know how in the world to tell if the child was a boy so O.o my way might have a flaw

a=albinism, x=colorblindness

so I got 4 AAXx (Carrier for colorblindness), 4 AaXx (carrier of albinism and colorblindness), 4 AaXx (carrier for albinism, carrier for colorblindness), 4 aaXx (albinism and carrier for colorblindness)

but if I left off the second x since the dad doesn't have 2, it would be more plausible and would come out like this

2 AAXx (Female: carrier for colorblindness), 2 AAX (male: normal), 2 AaXx (Female: Carrier for albinism; Carrier for colorblindness), 2 AaX (Male: Carrier of Albinism), 2 AaXx (Female: Carrier for Albinism; Carrier for colorblindness, 2 AaX (Male: Carrier of Albinism); 2 aaXx (Female: Carrier of colorblindness; Is an Albino), 2 aaXx (Male: Carrier of colorblindness; Is an Albino)

and I'll do the same for the one where the female is carrier of colorblindness (AaGg by Aag) a=albinism g=colorblindness

AAGg, AAG, AaGg, AaG, AAgg, AAg, Aagg, Aag, AaGg, AaG, aaGg, aaG, Aagg, Aag, aagg, aag

O.o so much hard work...eepish....but fun...sortaish

Yeah, I didn't need it anymore (teacher gave us the answer). ^^; But thanks, you pretty much got it, although the male and females had XY and XX to differentiate.

I'm writing an essay about the nature of man's fascination with tragedy. Should I do Sophocles? or where I can find other people that took part in some sort of tragedy relate writing.

I suggest William Golding. He wrote "Lord Of The Flies".
An excellent, excellent book.

There was that Shakespeare dude.

Hmm?
Sophocles wrote Greek Tragedies.
I've just read Antigone, and it's safe to say that's a "Tragic" story.

I've read Sophocles' Oedipus Rex, it was a thorough tragedy. Shakespeare wrote many tragedies too, like Macbeth, Hamlet, King Lear and Othello.

I believe it is safe to say that The Greeks had an unhealthy fascination with tragedy.

Mayor of Casterbridge by Thomas Hardy is all about the tragic hero's momentary blips of happiness, though Lord of the Flies would probably be easier (though I feel it relies more on the capacities of good and evil rather than the tragedy of the human persona).

generally unimpressed. Koku.

Well, I have to do Shakespeare and Aristotle, so I was considering Sophocles as the third.

Urgent Question:

This is for math. I know how to divide fractions, but this one leaves me confused (and the other top scholar too). I know there's probably some really obvious answer, so please be kind.

Divide:

6+4y+6y(squared)
________________
3y-1

Thank you!

I forgot what it's called (long division?), but I believe you just divide it out like a normal fraction. I got (2y+2) + 8/(3y-1)

In other words...

(6(y^2) + 4y + 6) ÷ (3y-1) =

(The | symbol is supposed to represent the division symbol that's used when doing division problems by hand)

(3y-1) | (6(y^2) + 4y + 6)

----------------------
............ 2y
(3y-1) | (6(y^2) + 4y + 6)
........... (6(y^2) - 2y)

-----------------------

............ 2y
(3y-1) | (6(y^2) + 4y + 6)
........... (6(y^2) - 2y)
...........................6y + 6

------------------------

............ 2y + 2
(3y-1) | (6(y^2) + 4y + 6)
........... (6(y^2) - 2y)
...........................6y + 6
...........................6y - 2

------------------------

(2y+2) + 8/(3y-1)

Er, if you can't make anything out of that mess, I wouldn't be surprised. o_o

Let's rearrange to have the y's with the highest power first (^2 means to the power of two, or squared):
(6y^2 + 4y + 6) / (3y-1) = ...

(1) We'll have to divide the 6y^2 by 3y to get the first part of the answer (we'll get rid of the y's in sequence, and then have a remainder) 6y^2 / 3y = 2y , Therefore
(6y^2 + 4y + 6) / (3y -1) = 2y ...

(2) Now, multiply the (3y-1) with 2y, and substract that from the main equation 2y(3y-1) = 6y^2 - 2y , 6y^2 cancels out, and we get (6y + 6) remaining (as we substract -2y from the remaining 4y + 6)


(3) Repeating step one, divide 6y by 3y to get rid of the y. 6y/3y = 2 Add this to the solution:
(6y^2 + 4y + 6) / (3y -1) = 2y + 2 ...

(4) Repeating step two, Substract 2(3y-1) = 6y - 2 from (6y + 6) = 8

(5) As we cannot get rid of an 8, it is the remainder. Therefore, the solution is
(6y^2 + 4y + 6) / (3y -1) = 2y + 2 + 8 / (3y-1)

(Hope that helps -- the random underlining is meant to make the expressions stand out from sentences... not sure if that works too well. This is generally the same thing that Senja described.)

Will you stop with the honour stuff?

Uhm. Hello.

I have to write a Latin essay for Friday the 4th of March. I've had it for two or three weeks (including over the half term), but I've been ill, and can only really get down to it this week, meaning I have to average around 160 words a night, and build it around other homework.

Soo, I need you guys to help me. Quite a bit. The title is:

"In today’s world, could we ever justify the Roman enthusiasm for gladiatorial entertainment?"

It doesn't have to be in Latin. I started it like this:

Ask anyone this question today, and the answer will most likely be a straightforward “no”. But has the world today really changed since the Romans set lions on the slaves and captives of their wars?

But I really need ideas, because I'm so freaking out about this.
