To distribute the 2/3, this is what you do.

2/3[8(5-2)^2 + 3*2] = (2/3)(8)(5-2)^2 + (2/3)(3*2) =

Now you can continue. You need to follow the correct order of operations.

= (2/3)(8)(3^2) + (2/3)(6)

= (2/3)(8)(9) + 4

= (2/3)(9)(8) + 4

= (6)(8) + 4

= 48 + 4

= 52

This is how I would have done it.

2/3[8(5-2)^2 + 3*2] =

= 2/3[8(3)^2 + 6]

= 2/3[8 * 9 + 6]

= 2/3[72 + 6]

= 2/3[78]

= 2 * 1/3(78)

= 2 * 26

= 52

A wildlife biologist examines frogs for a genetic trait that is linked to sensitivity to an industrial toxin in the environment.
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Usually, when there is contamination the smallest amount can have huge ramifications in the data collected. In this scenario, if in a "clean" environment the trait is found in 2/10 frogs then anything above this number should be considered contaminated. This is because data above this ratio would be considered uncommon or rare and this unique occurrence can be most likely tied to the only new factor which would be the contamination. Therefore the minimum number of frogs with this trait in the sample would be 3.
