To solve this question, you need to first look at the total amount of birds and then at the percentage of the blue jays that fed on the bird feeder out of all the other birds.
To calculate the total you add them all together:
59+68+12+1 = 140 birds
Then the percentages of the blue jays that fed on his bird feeder are:
59/140 *100 = 42.143%
You want to see how many blue jays we can expect to see out of 300 birds.
So you divide 300 by 100 to see what 1% is = 3 birds
Then you multiply this amount (1% = 3 birds) by 42.134% which is the percentage of blue jays we can expect to see out of the 300 birds.
3*42.134 = 126.43
You round this off to 126 because you cant expect to see half a bird. Even if the answer had been 126.9, you would have rounded it of to 126 because no matter how close it is to the next whole number; you either have a whole bird or you don't.
Final Answer = 126
Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
you have similar triangles here
so 2 is to 4 as 4 is to x
2/4 = 4/x
x = 8
Answer:
x = -1 +/-2i
Step-by-step explanation:
Write the equation in standard form to find the roots, also known as the solutions, zeros, or x-intercepts, of the quadratic.
x² + 2x + 5 = 0
Use the quadratic formula by substituting a= 1, b = 2 and c = 5.
Answer:
y= 3/4x
Step-by-step explanation:
Points on the graph
the equation based on the difference in points:
Speed=distance / time ⇒ distance=time x speed
distance=d
time=t
speed= s
d=s*t
Distance traveled by Mr Guerrero, when his daugther left the house
Data:
s=40 miles/ hour
t=2 hours
d=40 miles/ hour * 2 hours= 80 miles
Total distance traveled by Mr Guerrero:
d=80 miles + 40 miles/hourt ⇒d=80+40t (1)
d=total distance.
s=speed.
t=time spent by Miranda for she overtook her father.
Distance traveled by Miranda.
data:
s=48 miles/ hour
d=total distance.
t=time spent by Miranda for she overtook her father.
d=48 miles/hour * t ⇒d=48t (2)
With the equations (1) and (2), we make an system of equations:
d=80+40t
d=48t
We can solve this system of equation by equalization method.
80+40t=48t
80=48t-40t
80=8t
t=80/8=10
d=48t
d=48*10=480
Answer: the thistance will be 480 miles.
