Answer:
We can estimate a population of 500 birds.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can estimate the total bird population using a rule of three with the information given:
If we find 5 birds with the foot band among 100 birds captured, how many birds there are in total if inicially we put foot bands in 25 birds?
5 birds with foot band -> 100 birds captured
25 birds with foot band -> X total birds
X * 5 = 25 * 100
X = 25 * 100 / 5 = 500 birds
We can estimate a population of 500 birds.
75+ 15x ≥ 140
⇒ 15x ≥ 140-75
⇒ 15x ≥ 65
⇒ x ≥ 65/15
⇒ x ≥ 13/3
⇒ x ≥ 4 1/3
Final answer: x ≥ 4 1/3~
You would need to add 22 to 38 then divide that answer by 5 to get x
