Ok so first you would create a proportion.
8/x=4/1. Next you cross multiply and divide,
1 • 8÷4=x. Ratios are fractions with the first number being the numerator and the second being the denominator. If you think of it this way, you just find an equivalent fraction. Your answer would be 8:2 because in your proportion x=2.

Answer:

The population that gives the maximum sustainable yield is 45000 swordfishes.

The maximum sustainable yield is 202500 swordfishes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be $f(p) = -0.01\cdot p^{2}+9\cdot p$ , the maximum sustainable yield can be found by using first and second derivatives of the given function: (First and Second Derivative Tests)
