About 400 zebras live at the game reserve.

The proportion would be 
30/150 = 80/x

This is because 30 zebras are tagged out of 150 in one area.  We know that they tagged 80 total zebras out of x total zebras.

To solve this, cross multiply:
x*30 = 150*80
30x = 12000

Divide both sides by 30:
30x/30 = 12000/30
x = 400

NEED HELP QUICK!! :)
Vlada [557]
Let x and y be your two consecutive whole numbers

x < sqrt(142) < y
x^2 < 142 < y

So, we are looking for x and y such that x^2 < 142 and y^2 > 142.

The closest squared number to 142 is 144 = 12^2.
Next is 11^2 = 121.

11 and 12 are consecutive.

11^2 = 121 < 142 < 144 = 12^2

Thus, 11 and 12 are your numbers

Determine if the following triangle is a right triangle or not using the Pythagorean Theorem Converse. Triangle with side length
seraphim [82]

Answer:

A right triangle is a triangle in which one of the angles is a 90∘ angle. The "square" at the vertex of the angle indicates that it is 90 degrees. A triangle can be determined to be a right triangle if the side lengths are known.
