To find out how many rabbits were in a park students tagged 10 rabbits. They later came back to the park and counted 200 total r

abbits and 5 of them were tagged. Using this information, what is the best estimate for the total number of rabbits in the park? Can someone help explain this? Not just answer it but actually explain the reasoning?

Answer:

400

Step-by-step explanation:

The assumption behind mark-recapture methods is that the proportion of marked individuals recaptured in the second sample represents the proportion of marked individuals in the population as a whole. In algebraic terms, This method is called the Lincoln-Peterson Index of population size.

26 minutes, would = 3.51. if you add .12 to that it is 3.63.
so the most that she could talk would be 26 minutes.

Help, I don't remember​
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

  x = 144

Step-by-step explanation:

What you need to remember about this geometry is that all of the triangles are similar. As with any similar triangles, that means ratios of corresponding sides are proportional. Here, we can write the ratios of the long leg to the short leg and set them equal to find x.

  x/60 = 60/25

Multiply by 60 to find x:

  x = (60·60)/25

  x = 144

_____

<em>Comment on this geometry</em>

You may have noticed that the above equation can be written in the form ...

  60 = √(25x)

That is, the altitude from the hypotenuse (60) is equal to the geometric mean of the lengths into which it divides the hypotenuse (25 and x).

This same sort of "geometric mean" relation holds for other parts of this geometry, as well. The short leg of the largest triangle (the hypotenuse of the one with legs 25 and 60) is the geometric mean of the short hypotenuse segment (25) and the total hypotenuse (25+x).

And, the long leg of the large triangle (the hypotenuse of the one with legs 60 and x) is the geometric mean of the long hypotenuse segment (x) and the total hypotenuse (25+x).

While it can be a shortcut in some problems to remember these geometric mean relationships, you can always come up with what you need by simply remembering that the triangles are all similar.
