Answer:

\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{ \:  \: X \:  =  - 11}}}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\sf{5 \: X + 2 = 4 \: X - 9}

Move 4 X to left hand side and change it's sign

Similarly, move 2 to right hand side and change it's sign

\longrightarrow{ \sf{5 \: X - 4 \: X =  - 9 - 2}}

Collect like terms

\longrightarrow{ \sf{X =  - 9 - 2}}

The negative and positive integers are always subtracted but posses the sign of the bigger integer

\longrightarrow{ \sf{X =  - 11}}

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D

A biologist tags 25 birds with a band on their foot and lets them go back into the wild. The next year 100 total birds are captu
mestny [16]

Answer:

We can estimate a population of 500 birds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can estimate the total bird population using a rule of three with the information given:

If we find 5 birds with the foot band among 100 birds captured, how many birds there are in total if inicially we put foot bands in 25 birds?

5 birds with foot band -> 100 birds captured

25 birds with foot band -> X total birds

X * 5 = 25 * 100

X = 25 * 100 / 5 = 500 birds

We can estimate a population of 500 birds.
