A Park ranger tags 100 animals. Use a proportion to estimate the total population for each sample.

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

It is given that A Park ranger tags 100 animals.

This means the proportion of animals tagged= $\dfrac{100}{x}$

where 'x' represents the total population of animals.

We have to find total number of animals in each parts.

1)

23 out of 100 animals are tagged.

That means the proportion of animals tagged= $\dfrac{23}{100}$

Now we know that the proportion must be equal.

$\dfrac{23}{100}=\dfrac{100}{x}$

⇒ $x=\dfrac{100\times 100}{23}=434.783$

which is approximately equal to 435.

Hence, the total population =435.

3)

8 out of 116 animals are tagged

That means the proportion of animals tagged= $\dfrac{8}{116}$

Now we know that the proportion must be equal.

$\dfrac{8}{116}=\dfrac{100}{x}$

$x=\dfrac{100\times 116}{8}\\\\x=\dfrac{11600}{8}=1450$

which is approximately equal to 1450

Hence, the total population =1450.

4)

5 out of 63 animals are tagged

That means the proportion of animals tagged= $\dfrac{5}{63}$

Now we know that the proportion must be equal.

$\dfrac{5}{63}=\dfrac{100}{x}$

$x=1260$

Hence, the total population =1260.

5)

4 out of 83 animals are tagged

That means the proportion of animals tagged= $\dfrac{4}{83}$

Now we know that the proportion must be equal.

$\dfrac{4}{83}=\dfrac{100}{x}$

$x=\dfrac{100\times 83}{4}\\\\x=2075$

Hence, the total population =2075.

6)

3 out 121 animals are tagged

That means the proportion of animals tagged= $\dfrac{3}{121}$

Now we know that the proportion must be equal.

$\dfrac{3}{121}=\dfrac{100}{x}$

$x=\dfrac{100\times 121}{3}\\\\x=4033.33$

Hence, the total population =4033.

7)

83 out of 125 animals are tagged

That means the proportion of animals tagged= $\dfrac{83}{125}$

Now we know that the proportion must be equal.

$\dfrac{83}{125}=\dfrac{100}{x}$

$x=\dfrac{100\times 125}{83}\\\\x=150.6024$

Hence, the total population =151.

8)

7 out 165 animals are tagged

That means the proportion of animals tagged= $\dfrac{7}{165}$

Now we know that the proportion must be equal.

$\dfrac{7}{165}=\dfrac{100}{x}$

$x=\dfrac{100\times 165}{7}\\\\x=2357.143$

Hence, the total population =2357.

Simplify: (2x2 − 9x + 3) + (−7x2 + 4x − 2)

Leokris [45]

Combine like terms
2x^2 + -7x^2 = -5x^2
-9x + 4x = -5x
3 + -2 = 1
put back together
-5x^2 - 5x +1

Mable has 185 dollars worth of apples. Each apple is worth more then 3 dollars but less then 10 dollars. The number has four let

velikii [3]

Answer:

The worth of each of Mable's apples is $5

Step-by-step explanation:

Extracting the key information from the question:

***Mable has apples that are worth a combined 185 dollars.

*** One apple from Mable's apples worth more than three ($3) dollars but less than ten ($10) dollars.

***The cost of one apple is a number that has four letters.

*** That number (the cost) of one apple is also a prime number.

*** We are required to find or determine the worth of one of Mable's apples.

Now, one of the clues given to us which we may use to figure out the cost or worth of one apple is that the apple is worth more than three dollars ($3) but worth less than ten dollars ($10). This means that each Mable's apple may worth $4 or $5 or $6 or $7 or $8 or $9. That is one of Mable's apples worth from $4 to $9

Another clue to solving this puzzle is that the worth of one apple in dollars is a prime number. This implies that one of Mable's apples may worth either five dollars ($5) or seven dollars ($7).

The next clue for unravelling this mystery is that all Mable's apples are worth a combined $185. This then means that the worth of each apple (the number) must be able to divide 185.

Since $7 and $5 are the only two figures left standing, we will then try and see which one of them will be able to do divide the number "185".

185/7 = 26 remainder 3

185/5 = 37 remainder 0

The final clue in the question is that the worth of each of Mable's apples is a figure/number that has only letters:

$7 SEVEN has = 5 letters

$5 FIVE has = 4 letters

This now brings us to the conclusion that the worth of each of Mable's apples is five dollars ($5) since it meets all the requirements and clues in the question.
