You never showed the triangle
The answer is C
5.26x10^3 = 5,260
25+50 I assume...I mean I could be wrong but what else would it be
The estimate for the total population size is 1600.
Setting up a proportion for this, we know that 150 out of our 300 turtle sample is marked; this is the first ratio for the proportion. We also know that we marked 800 of our total population, which we will call x:
150/300 = 800/x
Cross multiply:
150*x = 300*800
150x = 240000
Divide both sides by 150:
150x/150 = 240000/150
x = 1600
