Answer: 720

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that cthe researches counted 400 turtles, of which 20 were marked. This implies that 20/400 = 1/20 were marked.

If the researchers wanted to track the reptile population around a lake, and the researchers marked 36 turtles, the estimate of the total population will then be:

1/20 × x = 36

x/20 = 36

x = 20 × 36

x = 720

The turtle population is 720

The face of a clock has a circumference of 63 in. What is the area of the face of the clock?
ryzh [129]

Answer:

The area of the clock = 315.41\ inch^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the face of the clock that is 63\ in

So that is also the circumference of the clock.

Since the clock is circular in shape.

So 2\pi(r)=63\ inch

From here we will calculate the value of radius (r) of the clock that is circular in shape.

Then 2\pi(r)=63\ inch =\frac{63}{2\pi} = 10.02\ in

Now to find the area of the clock we will put this value of (r) in the equation of area of the circle.

Now \pi (r)^{2}=\pi(10.02)^{2}=315.41\ in^{2}

So the area of the face of the clock =315.41\ in^{2}

Please help me it is an easy question
Ugo [173]

Answer:

200 yd²

Step-by-step explanation:

A = 17 yd

B  = 15 yd

C = 2 yd

D = 8 yd

b) Area of rectangle = length * width

 \sf Area \ of \ 2 \ triangle = 2*  \dfrac{1}{2}* base * height = base* height\\\\

Area of right triangular prism = Areas of two triangle +  area of the upper rectangle + area of middle rectangle + area of below rectangle

          = 8 * 15 +  17 * 2 + 15 *2 + 8*2

          = 120 + 34 + 30 + 16

          = 200 yd²
