Answer:
9500
Step-by-step explanation:
Scientists tagged 950 pike for a research project about a local lake. Later, they trapped 100 pike, of which 10 had tags. To the nearest whole number, what is the best estimate for the pike population?
The best estimate of a population is calculated as:
= N = mn/k
Where N = Estimate of the population
m = 950 pike
n = 100 pike
k = 10 tags
= 950 × 100/10
= 9500
The best estimate of he population = 9500
3x+21-12=8x-28
collect the like terms
3x-8x=-28(21-12=9)
-5x=-28-9
-5x=-37
x=7.4
Answer:
B its 4 7/8 --------------
24 of the 30 students surveyed liked history.
24/30 = 0.8 = 80% of the students surveyed liked history.
Multiply total students by 80%
625 x 0.8 = 500
500 of the total students like history.
20 shares at 10 1/2 (or 10.5) = 20 * 10.5 = 210
20 shares at 11 1/4 (or 11.25) = 20 * 11.25 = 225
so the profit made would be : 225 - 210 = $ 15 <==
