First, determine the number of computers that are needed for 924 students.

    n =  (924 students)(5 computers / 12 students)
                 n = 385 computers

Since, there are only 125 computers, the difference can be calculated.
     
       d = 385 computers - 125 computers
   
                d = 260 computers

Hence, 260 more computers are still needed.

How do you solve this: $32 earrings marked up 80 percent
Taya2010 [7]
Formula for markup
sales price = original price × ( 1 + rate )

So in this case it would be...
sp = $32 × ( 1 + .80 ) 
         $32 × ( 1.80 )
sp = $57.60

formula for discount ( if you need it ) 
sales price = original price × ( 1 - rate )
Just remember that the rate is the percentage ( to convert to a percentage to a decimal just move the decimal two places to the left )

In a capture-recapture study, 97 grizzly bears were tagged and released back into the wild. A month later, 200 bears were captur
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

539

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total population of  grizzly bears=x

In the first capture, 97 were tagged.

Therefore, ratio of the total population to the tagged=x:97

A month later, when 200 bears were captured, 36 were tagged.

Ratio of the sample to the tagged=200:36

Since a sample is representative of the population, the ratios are the same. We therefore have:

x:97=200:36

\dfrac{x}{97} =\dfrac{200}{36}\\ $Cross multiply\\36x=200 X 97\\x=200 X 97 \div 36\\x=538.9 \approx 539

There are about 539 grizzly bears in the population
