The estimate would be 1200.
We will set up a proportion for this. 10 out of 60 of the sample were tagged, so that is the first ratio. The 200 that were tagged would be in the numerator of the second ratio (10 was the portion tagged, and 200 is the portion tagged, so they both go on top). We do not know the total number so we use a variable:
10/60 = x/200
Cross multiply:
10*x = 60*200
10x = 12000
Divide both sides by 10:
10x/10 = 12000/10
x = 1200

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
s = 6, r = 8 or s = 4, r = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
2r - s = 10
2r = 10 + s
r = 5 + s/2 --(1)
rs - s^2 = 12 --(2)
sub (1) into (2):
(5 + s/2)s - s^2 = 12
5s + 0.5s^2 - s^2 = 12
-0.5s^2 + 5s - 12 = 0
s^2 - 10s + 24 = 0
(s - 6)(s - 4) = 0
therefore s = 6 or s = 4
when s = 6, r = 8 and when s = 4, r = 7

Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
divided by 
is the same thing as multiplying by 
.
The equation we get is:
With this equation, we can factor each equation:
We can cancel out like terms since they would be dividing each other:
None because the triangles have different lines
