26 out of 130 were marked.

Divide 26 by 130:

26/130 = 0.20

20% of the bass caught were tagged.

Now divide the total amount caught and tagged by that percentage:

258 / 0.20 = 1,290

There are 1,290 bass in the lake.

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To move the graph 6 units to the right, subtract 6 in the absolute value.

y=|x+5-6|

To move it up, add 2 outside the absolute value.

y=|x+5-6|+2

Now remove the absolute values since x>1.

y=x+5-6+2

y=x+1
