.5
Explanation:
Remember that p = dominant allele, q = recessive allele. Use the Hardy-Weinberg equations:
p^2 + 2pq + q^2 = 1 (AA + Aa + aa = 1)
So aa = q^2. Take the square root, and we'll have just q by itself.
√a^2 = √.25 = .5
So the frequency of the a allele (recessive) = .5.
p + q = 1
p + .5 = 1
p = .5
The frequency of the A allele is .5.
