Answer:
279 silvery minnow
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of Silvery Minnows initially tagged = 54
Number of minnows captured = 62
Number of tagged minnows in captured ones = 12
Remember that in the very beginning there were no tagged minnows. 54 minnows were captured, tagged and released. This means, there are total 54 tagged minnows in the entire population. Lets say there are x number of minnows in total.
So, in x minnows, 54 are tagged ones.
When 62 minnows are captured, only 12 are tagged ones and remaining are un-tagged. Since, the minnows were randomly captured, we can develop a proportion from this case to estimate the total population of minnows in the Rio Grande River.
Ratio of tagged minnows to total population must be equal to the ratio of captured tagged minnows in total captured minnows.
i.e.
This means, there were 279 silvery minnows in the Rio Grande River.
Answer:
C; 62 to 68 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to get the population range that is having a probability of 68%
From the empirical rule, a measure of 1 standard deviation above the mean, with 1 standard deviation below the mean will give a total percentage of 68%
From the question;
1 standard deviation above the mean is 65 + 3 = 68
1 standard deviation below the mean is 65-3 = 62
so the range of the height of the population is 62 to 68 inches
Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that a pentagon is in total 540 degrees. From this, we add all other numbers and set them equal to 540 to solve for x.
So, after adding all the angles and setting them equal to 540, we get this.
21x+435=540
21x=105
x= 5
If you want, plug 5 into x and see if it adds up to 540 to check
21(5)+435=540
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:the answer is 3 ft
Answer:
n<1
Step-by-step explanation:
4n−5<−1
Add 5 to both sides.
4n−5+5<−1+5
4n<4
Divide both sides by 4.
4n/4<4/4
n<1
