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

Is x^ 2 - 16 the difference between two squares? Why?
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

x1= -4

x2 = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Set the equation equal to zero

x2 − 16 = 0

then

(x + 4)(x − 4) = 0

(x+4)= 0 which is equal to -4

and

(x-4)= 0 equals 4

PLEASE HELP! IT'S DUE IN 30 MINTUES!.. :)

The equation that best describes the distance traveled is y = 190 + 65x.

Finding the values of the variables that lead to the stated equality being true is a step in the process of solving an equation with variables. Equation solutions are the amounts of the unknowns that meet the equality, whereas unknowns are the variables with which the equation must be solved.

Identity equations and conditional equations are the two types of equations. For every possible value of a variable, an identity holds true. The variables in a conditional equation can only have certain values.

An equation is made up of two expressions connected together by an equals symbol ("=").

The Distance traveled by car is 190 miles

The Speed of the car is 65 miles per hour.

Let x be the total number of hours traveling by car and y be the total distance remaining.

Then,

Total distance = 190 miles + 65 miles per hour × Number of hours traveled.

y = 190 + 65x

Consequently, the equation is y = 190 + 65 x.

Triangle ABC has vertices at A(1,2) B(4,6) and C(4,6) in the coordinate plane. The triangle will be reflected over the x-axis an
k0ka [10]
You should know that you can predict changes in coordinates after translations without a graph or anything like that.

(x, y) reflected over the x axis = (x, -y)
(x, y) reflected over the y axis = (-x, y)
(x, y) rotated 90 degrees around the origin = (y, -x)
(x, y) rotated 180 degrees around the origin = (-x, -y)
(x, y) rotated 270 degrees around the origin - (-x, y)

So here's our set of points.
A(1, 2), B(4, 6), C(4, 6)

Here's those points reflected over the x axis.
A'(1, -2), B'(4, -6), C'(4, -6)

And here's <em>those</em> points rotated 180° around the origin.
A''(2, -1), B''(6, -4), C''(6, -4)

I think you made a mistake writing down the question, though, because B and C are the same yet you say ABC forms a triangle. You should be able to go through this process with whatever the coordinate was supposed to be.
