Game wardens use experiments to help determine the number of wild horses in a national park. Suppose 40 wild horses are caught,

tagged, and released back into the national park. Two weeks later 100 wild horses are caught, 4 of which are found to have tags. Using this information, estimate the number of wild horses in the national park. 4,000 wild horses 136 wild horses 36 wild horses 1,000 wild horses

I think  the answer is 136 wild horses because they caught 40 the first time then they caught 100 the second time but four had already been caught so 100 + 40 = 140 - 4 = 136

The length of a rectangle is 5 centimeters more than the width. The area of the rectangle is 36 centimeters. What is the length?
UNO [17]
We can represent the width as x and the length as x+5. Then we can make the area formula A=(x)*(x+5), plug in 36 for A, and solve for x

36=x^2+5x (distribute)
0=x^2+5x-36
0=(x+9)(x-4)
So x=-9 and 4 but dimensions can't be negative so x=4

So if the width is 4, then the length is 9 (4+5)

Hope this helps :)
