It depends on what you make p equal to. P is usually the frequency of the dominant allele, which makes q the frequency of the recessive allele, but they can be switched. As long as p is one frequency and q is the other, the formula will work.
So if you have the dominant allele frequency (A) =.6 then the recessive allele frequency (a) =.4, because p+q=1
When you plug the frequencies into the hardy-weinberg equation
p^2 +2(p)(q) + (q)^2 = 1
then you have (0.6)^2 + 2(0.4)(0.6) + (0.4)^2 = 1
(0.6)^2 = 0.36 which is the frequency of dominant homozygotes
2(0.4)(0.6)=0.48 which is the frequency of heterozygotes
(0.)^2 = 0.16 which is the frequency of recessive homozygotes
If you have a population of 100 people, these frequencies would mean that:
36 people would be AA
48 people would be Aa
16 people would be aa
Which would mean that 36+48=84 people would exhibit the dominant trait and 16 people would show the recessive trait.
The equation is q = mC∆T where q is the heat; m is the mass of water; C is the specific heat of water (1 cal/g/deg); and ∆T is the change in temperature.

a chemical equation
In a chemical equation, coefficients represent the no. of molecules or atoms involved in a complete chem. reaction.
dU=q-w where dU is the differential change in internal energy q is the differential quantity of heat added to a system w is the differential quantity of work done by a system on its surroundings
It could represent an unknown variable in an expression or an equation.
It is not an equation, but q2 meaning q^2 represents q being multiplied by itself.
p and q represent the frequencies of two types of alleles.
The Hardy-Weinberg equation is as follows: p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1 p & q represent the frequencies for each allele.
Without an equality sign the given information can't be defined as an equation.
It repressents the Heat Transfer rate, in kW, Btu/hour etc...
the frequently of the heterozygous dominant genotype
State the problem: 35q = 5 Solve for q by dividing both sides by 35 (to isolate the q variable): q = 5 ÷ 35 or 5/35, simplified to 1/7, or 0.142857 in decimal form.
Depends on the equation. If it is similar to: Q = m*Cp*dT then Q = energy if it is similar to A= Ao * exp (-Q/RT) then Q is the activation energy
The solution is the answer to an equation.
Why don't you express the equation verbally? Q 12 89 doesn't have much meaning.
Q - 12 = 89 Add 12 to both sides of the equation. Q - 12 + 12 = 89 + 12 Q = 101
