Answer: There are 112 students left.

Step-by-step explanation: let the original number of students be 100 out of which 40 were girls. Additional 15 girls came making a total of 115 students out of which 55 are girls.

But we're told that the number of girls left is 52 not 55 so it means 3 girls left the dance, this reducing the total number of students from 115 to 112.

I believe this is clear enough.

The above solution is correct if the figures 40, 52, and 15 are taken as numbers NoT percentage. That was my error. I'm so sorry!

Let the initial number of girls be x, this represents 40% of the dancers.
Total number of dancers will therefore be:
100/40*x=2.5x
When 15 more girls joined, the new number of girls was:
x+15 this represents the total percentage of 52%. The new number of dancers became:
2.5x+15:
therefore the new percentage of girls can be expressed as follows:
(new number of girls)/(new number of dancers)×100
(x+15)/(2.5x+15)×100=52
(x+15)/(2.5x+15)=0.52
x+15=0.52(2.5x+15)
x+15=1.3x+7.8
15-7.8=1.3x-x
7.2=0.3x
x=7.2/0.3=24
The number of students after additional number of girls will be:
2.5x+15
=2.5×24+15
=60+15
=75 students

A wildlife biologist examines frogs for a genetic trait that is linked to sensitivity to an industrial toxin in the environment.
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Usually, when there is contamination the smallest amount can have huge ramifications in the data collected. In this scenario, if in a "clean" environment the trait is found in 2/10 frogs then anything above this number should be considered contaminated. This is because data above this ratio would be considered uncommon or rare and this unique occurrence can be most likely tied to the only new factor which would be the contamination. Therefore the minimum number of frogs with this trait in the sample would be 3.
