In order to determine the number of squirrels in a conservation area, a researcher catches, and marks 114 squirrels then release
s them. Later he catches 96 squirrels and observes marks on 24 of the squirrels caught.
Use proportional reasoning to determine how many squirrels are in the conservation area.
Enter your answer in the box.
squirrels
Help please!!!
Where "N" is the estimated population size, "M" is the number of individuals already tagged, "C" is the total number of those caught the second time regardless of whether or not they are tagged, and "R" is the total number of tagged recaptured individuals.
Now, replacing we have:
N = 114 * 96/24
N = 456
Therefore, there are approximately 456 squirrels in the conservation area.
The formula of a continuous compound interest is A=p e^rt A future value 7300 P present value 1500 E constant R interest rate 0.0675 T time? Solve the formula for t T=[log (A/p)÷log (e)]÷r T=(log(7,300÷1,500)÷log(e))÷0.0675 T=23 years
