The best prediction of the total number of tagged salmon in a sample of 2000 is 100.

<h3><u>Predictions</u></h3>

To determine what is the best prediction of the total number of tagged salmon in a sample of 2000, the following calculation must be performed:

  • 800 = 40
  • 2000 = X
  • 2000 x 40 / 800 = X
  • 80000 / 800 = X
  • 100 = X

Therefore, the best prediction of the total number of tagged salmon in a sample of 2000 is 100.

Find the distance between the following points: (0,0,0) and (-2,6,3)
marusya05 [52]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  3.  7

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance formula applies in 3 dimensions as well as 2.

  d = √((x2 -x1)² +(y2 -y1)² +(z2 -z1)²)

  d = √((-2)² +6² +3²) = √(4 +36 +9) = √49

  d = 7

The distance between the two points is 7 units.
