Answer:
A total of 720 elk are likely to be infected
Step-by-step explanation:
we shall be using the proportion by survey to estimate the number of infections
From the survey 8 out of 50 are infected. Thus the likelihood of infection is 8/50
We have 4,500 elk to consider. The number of elk likely to be infected will be 8/50 * 4500 = 720
It's a simple linear equation in 'y'. There is only one number that 'y' can be
that will make the equation a true statement. That number is called the
'solution' to the equation. Here's one way to find it:
You said that <u> 2 = y/5 - 8</u>
Add 8 to each side: 10 = y/5
Multiply each side by 5: <em> 50 = y</em>
Answer: multiplied together or divided, the answer is positive. If two negative numbers are multiplied together or divided, the answer is positive.
Step-by-step explanation:
(X^2+8x)-(x-8)=0
x(x+8)-1(x+8)=0
(X-1)(x+8)=0
X= 1
X= -8
