$\frac{\text{Number of bees marked in the sample}}{\text{Total bees in the sample taken}}=\frac{\text{Number of bees marked in total population}}{\text{Number of bees in the hive}}$ $\frac{30}{240}=\frac{160}{x}$

x = $\frac{160\times 240}{30}=1280$

Therefore, the best estimate for the bee population is 1280.

Solve for y:- y - 18 = 10 y = ? Thank You!

Simora [160]

In this question we can see that there is one unknown variable named “y” and one equation. So it is absolutely possible to find the correct value of the unknown variable “y”. Now let us check the equation that is given and solve it correctly.
y - 18 = 10
y = 10 + 18
= 28
So the value of the unknown variable “y” is 28. I hope this is the answer you were looking for and the procedure is clear to you.
