Answer:

They tagged 90 male deer s

Explanation:

Given a park ranger calculated 60% of male deer

Consider the deer they tagged to be x

According to question,

20% of deer were older than 4 years which equals 18

Then, 20% of x = 18

Solving for x,

x = 1800/20

x = 90

So, they tagged 90 male deer

SOMEONE HELP ME ON THESE QUESTIONS

1.) The sum(addition) of 21 and 5 times(multiplication) a number f is(=) 61.

f = unknown number/variable [So 21 plus 5f(5 times f) equals 61]

21 + 5f = 61 [21(one-time) + 5f(number x variable) = 61(total)]

2.) Seventeen more(addition) than seven times(multiplication) a number j is(=) 87.

j = unknown number/variable [So 17 plus 7j(7 times j) equals 87]

17 + 7j = 87

3.) n = number of calls

18 + 0.05n = 50.50

[Company charges $18 plus five cents per call(n), and the total charge was $50.50]

4.) s = the number of students

40 + 30s = 220

[Tutor charges $40 plus $30 per student(s), and the total charge was $220]

A number n is increased by 8. If the cube root of that results equals -0.5, what is the value of n?

jek_recluse [69]

The cube root of (n increased by 8), or ∛(n+8), is -0.5, or -1/2.

∛(n+8) = -1/2. To solve this for n, cube both sides, obtaining n+8 = -1/8.

Eliminate the fraction by mult. all three terms by 8: 8n + 64 = -1

Solving for n: 8n = -65, so that n = -65/8.

Identify the data set that could be quadratic. HELP ASAP!!

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

Option B can be quadratic.

Step-by-step explanation:

Take a look at the data.

A quadratic equation is of the form ,

$y = ax^{2} +bx + c$ ,

where, a,b,c are constants.

To find an unknown equation of 3 variables,

we need 3 points lying on the equation.

here they have given, 5 points, meaning all should lie on the curve.

For first option, inserting first 3 points to find equation, we get equation as,

$y = x^{2} -4x +11$ , but the rest points don't satisfy the curve.

So first option is not quadratic.

Similarly, it can be shown that option C and D are also not quadratic.

While, in option B, it is clear that for every y, x is y squared,

$x = y^{2}$ , thus quadratic in nature.

First find the hourly rate by dividing $187 by 11 hours. That yields $11 per hour. Now multiple the $11/hour rate by 8 hours of work resulting in $88.
