In a capture-recapture study, 97 grizzly bears were tagged and released back into the wild. A month later, 200 bears were captur
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

539

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total population of  grizzly bears=x

In the first capture, 97 were tagged.

Therefore, ratio of the total population to the tagged=x:97

A month later, when 200 bears were captured, 36 were tagged.

Ratio of the sample to the tagged=200:36

Since a sample is representative of the population, the ratios are the same. We therefore have:

x:97=200:36

\dfrac{x}{97} =\dfrac{200}{36}\\ $Cross multiply\\36x=200 X 97\\x=200 X 97 \div 36\\x=538.9 \approx 539

There are about 539 grizzly bears in the population

Amelia runs a farm stand that sells strawberries and peaches. Each pound of strawberries sells for $1 and each pound of peaches
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

<u><em>14 pounds of strawberries and 42 pounds of peaches are sold</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the pounds of strawberries sold are x and pounds of peaches sold are y. then

$182= x(1) + y(4)--------A

or 182= x(1) +3x(4)------- B

182=x+12x

182/13=x

x=14

A cup of coffee at 85 degrees Celsius is placed in a room at 25 degrees Celsius. Suppose that the coffee cools at a rate of 5 de
bezimeni [28]

Answer: k = - 6.6667

Step-by-step explanation:

this is quite very simple to begin. I would encourage you take other practice questions similar to help with understanding it.

let us begin.

Given that ;

dT/dt = k ( Tm - T)       where Tm is the temp of the medium

dT/dt = 5 degrees Celsius per minute    when T = 70

so we have that, 5 = k ( 25 - 70)

remember to convert 5 degree celsius per minute to seconds

we have that;

5*60(sec) = k ( 25 - 70)  

k = 5*60 / ( 25 - 70)

k = - 6.6667

note K is negative because we consider it for cooling process  (temp decreasing).

cheers i hope this helps!!!
