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.
Answer:
122.5
Step-by-step explanation:
B is the correct answer.
We are adding the border of x thickness to all 4 sides of the table. This makes the new width of the table 36+x+x = 36+2x and the new length of the table 72+x+x=72+2x. To find the area, we multiply the length and width:
(36+2x)(72+2x) = 3006
Multiplying the binomials, we get:
36*72 + 36*2x + 2x*72 + 2x*2x = 3006
2592 + 72x + 144x + 4x² = 3006
Combining like terms gets us
2592 + 216x + 4x² = 3006
Subtract 3006 from both sides:
2592 + 216x + 4x² - 3006 = 3006 - 3006
-414 + 216x + 4x² = 0
Writing in standard form we have
4x²+216x-414=0
