Answer:
37080
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem we need to use proportions:
We don't know the total population in Rookery A but we know that 6334 of the total were tagged. Later, from a sample of 1200 pups, 205 were previously tagged.
The proportions we get are:
where p is the total population.
Now we will solve the proportion for p:

Therefore the total number of fur seal pups is 37077 ≈ 37080
17(n+31)=357
distribute:
17n+527=357
-527 -527
17n= -170
÷17 <span>÷17

A: negative 10
