What are pisland and pmainland

Consider a mainland-island migration scenario where two alleles are segregating and the observed frequencies of heterozygotes are such that H=.32 for the mainland and H=.5 for the island. (These are the values of heterozygosity) What are Pisland and Pmainland? Assume Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.

Equation given was

Pisland = Pmainland + ( 1 – m) ^ t (Po – Pmainland)

where m = mutation rate and Po = original population frequency
