Answer 1

Answer: There are 104 silvery minnow population in the Rio Grande River.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of tagged silvery minnows = 54

Number of captured silvery minnows = 62

It includes 12 tagged silvery minnows.

So, Number of silvery minnows without tags = 62 -12 =50

So, Good estimate of the silvery minnow population in the Rio Grande River would be

$54+50\\\\=104$

Hence, there are 104 silvery minnow population in the Rio Grande River.
