Answer:

  600 baboons

Step-by-step explanation:

Half the number of marked baboons showed up in the sample, so we expect the sample size to be about half of the total population. 300 is half of 600.

___

Many assumptions are involved in such an experiment and analysis. Not the least of which are the assumptions that the marked baboons end up evenly distributed through the population, and that the sample is a fair sample of the entire population.

Simplify 3 - b (7b + 2) + 3b - (11 - b)​
nirvana33 [79]

Answer: -7b² + 2b - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given expression</u>

3 - b (7b + 2) + 3b - (11 - b)

<u>Expand parentheses and apply the distributive property if necessary</u>

=3 - b · 7b - b · 2 + 3b - 11 + b

=3 - 7b² - 2b + 3b - 11 + b

<u>Combine like terms</u>

=-7b² + (3b - 2b + b) + (3 - 11)

=\boxed{-7b^2+2b-8}

Hope this helps!! :)

Solve for the value of v.
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

V=14

Step-by-step explanation:

Well its a supplementary angle if you add everything together.

We know theres a 90 degrees angle and a 34 degree angle.

90+34=124

124+4v=180

Since if you add everything up its a straight line

Solve the equation normally

56=4v
