Craps is a single player dice game, that proceeds as follows: 1. the player rolls 2 six-sided dice once if the total is 7 or 11, the player wins if the total is 2, 3 or 12, the player loses otherwise, the game continues, ... see 2 ... 2. the player the continues to roll the dice repeatedly, until ... the total is the same as the original total (from 1), in which case the player wins the total is 7, in which case the player loses Write a function craps that simulates a single game of craps (may be many rolls) and returns 1 if the player wins and 0 otherwise.

Problem 6 Let $X_1, X_2, \dots, X_n$ be a random sample from a gamma distribution with parameters $\alpha$ and $\beta$. The PDF of a gamma distribution has the form $f(x; \alpha, \beta) = \begin{cases} \frac{1}{\beta^\alpha \Gamma(\alpha)} x^{\alpha-1} e^{-\frac{x}{\beta}}, & x \geq 0 \\ 0, & \text{otherwise.} \end{cases}$ 1. Write the likelihood function. 2. Derive the equations whose solutions yield the maximum likelihood estimators $\alpha$ and $\beta$. 3. Show that the maximum likelihood estimator of $\mu = \alpha\beta$ is $\hat{\mu} = \bar{X}$.

(1 point) Let $$x(t) = \begin{bmatrix} x_1(t) \\ x_2(t) \end{bmatrix}$$ be a solution to the system of differential equations: $$x_1'(t) = -27x_1(t) + 10x_2(t)$$ $$x_2'(t) = -50x_1(t) + 18x_2(t)$$ If $$x(0) = \begin{bmatrix} 5 \\ -1 \end{bmatrix}$$, find $$x(t)$$. Put the eigenvalues in ascending order when you enter $$x_1(t), x_2(t)$$ below. $$x_1(t) = \boxed{\phantom{blank}} \exp(\boxed{\phantom{blank}}t) + \boxed{\phantom{blank}} \exp(\boxed{\phantom{blank}}t)$$ $$x_2(t) = \boxed{\phantom{blank}} \exp(\boxed{\phantom{blank}}t) + \boxed{\phantom{blank}} \exp(\boxed{\phantom{blank}}t)$$

Describe the results in terms of gene expression. (mRNA and protein) Compare results for child 1 to child 2 and indicate differences, if any. c. Outline how the Southern blot was done. b. Disease = mutant phenotype. Draw appropriate conclusions. Where in the gene is the mutation? What kind of mutation might it be? Explain your reasoning. d. Is each child homozygous or heterozygous at the gene D locus? Which result tells you? e. Draw two lines showing the difference between the wild type allele and the mutant allele of gene D. 3 kb
