Let’s say we want to find the size of a deer population. Suppose that we capture 80 deer, tag them, and release them back into the forest. After some time has passed—allowing the marked deer to thoroughly mix with the rest of the population—we come back and capture another 100 deer. Out of these deer, we find that 20 are already marked. Using this information, what can you estimate the deer population to be?

A. 1,000
B. 400
C. 200
D. 800
E. 600

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

400

Step-by-step explanation:

20/100 = 80/x

Cross multiply and divide

100 X 80 = 8000 / 20 = 400

Answer 2

The total deer population in the forest will be 400. Then the correct option is B.

What are ratio and proportion?

A ratio is a group of sequentially ordered numbers a and b expressed as a/b, where b is never equal to zero. When two objects are equal, a statement is said to be proportional.

Suppose we need to track down the size of a deer populace. Assume that we catch 80 deer, label them, and deliver them back into the timberland. After some time has elapsed - permitting the noticeable deer to completely blend in with the remainder of the populace - we return and catch another 100 deer. Out of these deer, we observe that 20 are as of now checked.

Then the ratio of the number of tag deer to the total deer will be constant. Then the equation is given as,

20 / 100 = 80 / x

x = 80 × (100/20)

x = 400

The total deer population in the forest will be 400. Then the correct option is B.

what is the value of x in the equation? 2/3(x+6)=-18​

Answers

Answer:

C.) -33

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 (x+6) = -18

x+6 = -27

x = -33

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3*(x + 6) = -18

Multiply by 3

2(x + 6) = -18*3

2(x + 6) = -54    

Remove the brackets

2x + 12 = - 54

Subtract 12 from both sides

2x+12-12 = - 54 - 12

Combine like terms

2x = -66

Divide by 2

2x/2 = -66/2

x = -33

Hi So I know M∠2 + 63° (im pretty sure at least) but what does M∠3 equal?

Answers

Answer:

m<2 = 63

m<3 = 117

Step-by-step explanation:

<1 and <2 are alternate interior angles and are therefore equal. M<1 = 63 degrees,  so m<2 must be the same thing.

<2 and <3 are on the same straight line.

They are supplementary.

Therefore they equal 180 degrees.

63 + m<3 = 180                  Subtract 63 from both sides.

63 - 63 +m<3 = 180 - 63   Collect like terms

m<3 = 117

a circle diameter of 11 in what is the area of the circle

Answers

30.25π square units (about 95.03)



The radius is half of the diameter, so 5 1/2 in this case.

The area of a circle is πr^2, where r is the radius.

This means that the area of the circle is π * 5.5^2. Simplify to get π * 30.25, or 30.25π square units.



Please consider marking this answer as Brainliest to help me advance.

Area of circle = [tex]\pi[/tex][tex]r^{2}[/tex]

First, we can put in our values. For now, we can leave [tex]\pi[/tex] alone.

Our radius is 5.5 so we have to square it which gives us a product of 30.25

then, we can multiply our radius squared by [tex]\pi[/tex] and we get

The second step in solving 1/3n- 7/12 is to divide both sides of the equation by 1/3.
True Or false?

Answers

that is true if that's 1/3n=7/12

if it's 1/3n-7/12 then the first step is to equal it to zero

Yes, the second step in solving 1/3n = 7/12 is to divide both sides of the equation by 1/3.

What is a expression? What is a mathematical equation? What is Equation Modelling? What is denominator?

A mathematical expression is made up of terms (constants and variables) separated by mathematical operators. A mathematical equation is used to equate two expressions. Equation modelling is the process of writing a mathematical verbal expression in the form of a mathematical expression for correct analysis, observations and results of the given problem. In a fraction say (x/y), [y] is called denominator.

We have the equation -

(1/3)n = (7/12)

We have -

(1/3)n = (7/12)

Dividing both sides by (1/3), we get -

[(1/3)/(1/3)]n = [7/12 x 3]

n = 7/4

Therefore, yes, the second step in solving 1/3n = 7/12 is to divide both sides of the equation by 1/3.

A rectangle retaining wall has area of 15 square feet.The height of the wall is two feet less than its length.find the height and the length of the wall

Answers

Answer:

The wall is 3 ft high and 5 ft long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall:  Area of the rectangular wall is A = (length)(height).

Let the height be represented by h.  Then the length is represented by h + 2.

The formula A = (length)(height) then becomes A = h(h+2) = 15 ft², which, written in the standard form of a quadratic equation, is h² + 2h - 15 = 0.

Let's solve this last equation for h using completing the square:

h² + 2h - 15 = 0 becomes h² + 2h + 1 -1 - 15 = 0, or (h + 1)² = 16.  Taking the square root of both sides, we get:

h + 1 = ±4, which is equivalent to h = 3 and h = -5.  Discard the negative result.  Then h = 3 and w = 3+2 = 5.

The wall is 3 ft high and 5 ft long.  Its area is (3 ft)(5 ft) = 15 ft²

The height and the length of the rectangular wall is 3 feet and 5 feet respectively.

What is the height and the length of the wall?

Area of a rectangle = 15 square feet

Length = x feet

Height = (x - 2) feet

Area of a rectangle = height × length

15 = x × (x - 2)

15 = x² - 2x

set to quadratic equation

x² - 2x - 15 = 0

x² - 5x + 3x - 15 = 0

x(x - 5) + 3(x - 5) = 0

(x + 3)(x - 5) = 0

x + 3 = 0 or x - 5 = 0

x = -3 or x = 5

The length of a rectangle cannot be negative

Therefore,

Length = x feet

= 5 feet

Height = (x - 2) feet

= 5 - 2

= 3 feet

S = 16 t²

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets study the order pairs in C to find what is the relation

  between the input (t) and the output (S)

∵ C = {(t , S): (0 , 0) , (1 , 16) , (2 , 64) , (3 , 144) , .............}

∵ (0 , 0) is the first point

∴ There is no plus or minus in the relation between S and t

∴ We refused the last answer S = 16(t + 1)² because

  if t = 0 then S = 16(0 + 1) = 16 ≠ 0

- If we chose the first answer:

∵ S = 16t  

∵ t = 0 ⇒ S = 16(0) = 0 ⇒ its right

∵ t = 1 ⇒ S = 16(1) = 16 ⇒ its right

∵ t = 2 ⇒ S = 16(2) = 32 ⇒ its wrong

∴ We refused the first answer

- If we chose the second answer:

∵ S = (16t)²

∵ t = 0 ⇒ S = (16×0)² = 0 ⇒ its right

∵ t = 1 ⇒ S = (16×1)² = 256 ⇒ wrong

∴ We refused the second answer

- If we chose the third answer:

∵ S = 16 t²

∵ t = 0 ⇒ S = (16)(0)² = 0 ⇒ its right

∵ t = 1 ⇒ S = (16)(1)² = 16 ⇒ its right

∵ t = 2 ⇒ S = (16)(2)² = 16 × 4 = 64 ⇒ its right

∵ t = 3 ⇒ S = (16)(3)² = 16 × 9 = 144 ⇒ its right

∴ every time we multiply 16 by the square of the value of t

∴ We accept the third answer

North Carolina has three times the population of Utah and twice the
population of Oregon. Arkansas has 1 million people fewer than Oregon.
If the total population of these four states is 27 million, how many peo-
ple live in each state?

Answers

North Carolina = 3 * Utah

North Carolina = 2 * Oregon

Arkansas = Oregon - 1,000,000

North Carolina + Utah + Oregon + Arkansas = 27,000,000

North Carolina = 3 * Utah

Utah = 1/3 * North Carolina

Utah = 1/3 * (2 * Oregon)

(2 * Oregon) + (1/3 * (2 * Oregon)) + Oregon + (Oregon - 1,000,000) = 27,000,000

2O + (1/3 * 2O) + O + O - 1,000,000 = 27,000,000

2O + 2/3O + O + O - 1,000,000 = 27,000,000

4 2/3 O - 1,000,000 = 27,000,000

4 2/3 O = 28,000,000

O = 6,008,584

NC = 2O

NC = 2(6,008,584)

NC = 12,017,167

A = O - 1,000,000

A = 6,008,584 - 1,000,000

A = 5,008,584

NC = 3U

12,017,167 = 3U

U = 4,005,722

The populations of the four states are as follows:

- Utah has a population of 4 million.

- Oregon has a population of 6 million.

- North Carolina has a population of 12 million.

- Arkansas has a population of 5 million.

Let's denote the population of Utah, Oregon, and Arkansas as U, O, and A, respectively. According to the information given:

1. North Carolina has three times the population of Utah: [tex]\( NC = 3U \).[/tex]

2. North Carolina has twice the population of Oregon: [tex]\( NC = 2O \).[/tex]

3. Arkansas has 1 million people fewer than Oregon: [tex]\( A = O - 1 \).[/tex]

4. The total population of these four states is 27 million: [tex]\( U + O + A + NC = 27 \).[/tex]

From equations (1) and (2), we can equate the populations of Utah and Oregon since both are related to the population of North Carolina:

[tex]\( 3U = 2O \) or \( O = \frac{3}{2}U \).[/tex]

Now, substitute the value of O from equation (3) into the total population equation (4):

[tex]\( U + \frac{3}{2}U + ( \frac{3}{2}U - 1 ) + 3U = 27 \).[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]\( U + \frac{3}{2}U + \frac{3}{2}U - 1 + 3U = 27 \),[/tex]

[tex]\( U + 3U + 3U - 1 = 27 \),[/tex]

[tex]\( 7U - 1 = 27 \).[/tex]

Now, solve for U:

[tex]\( 7U = 27 + 1 \),[/tex]

[tex]\( 7U = 28 \),[/tex]

[tex]\( U = \frac{28}{7} \),[/tex]

[tex]\( U = 4 \)[/tex] million.

Now that we have the population of Utah, we can find the populations of the other states:

[tex]\( O = \frac{3}{2}U = \frac{3}{2} \times 4 = 6 \)[/tex] million,

[tex]\( NC = 2O = 2 \times 6 = 12 \)[/tex] million,

[tex]\( A = O - 1 = 6 - 1 = 5 \)[/tex] million.

The scale factor from ABC to PQR is [tex]k=\frac{6}{4}=1.5[/tex]

The area of triangle PQR will change by [tex]k^2=1.5^2=2.25[/tex] centimeters square.

Since we know the area of triangle ABC to be [tex]40cm^2[/tex], the area of triangle PQR [tex]=2.25\times 40=90cm^2[/tex]

Answer:

The area of the triangle PQR is 90 cm^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two triangles, ABC and PQR, which are similar to each other.

If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of their areas is the square of the ratio of their sides.

Given that area of the triangle ABC is [tex]40cm^2[/tex], we are to find the area of the triangle PQR.

Finding the scale factor [tex]k=\frac{6}{4} =1.5[/tex]

Which of the tollowing objects is considered to be one-dimensional because it has length but no width or height?
O A. Line segment
O B. Triangle
O C. Point
O D. Cube

Answers

Answer:   A. Line segment

Step-by-step explanation:

A line is a one-dimensional geometric straight -undefined figure which has no thickness or depth . It extends infinitely in both directions.  

A line segment is a part of a line having end-points on both the sides.

It has only length therefore, it is one dimensional.

Thus , the objects is considered to be one-dimensional because it has length but no width or height is a line segment.

The triangle is 2-dimensional , point has no-dimensions,  and cube  is 3-dimensional.

Final answer:

A line segment is the correct answer, as in mathematics it is considered one-dimensional because it only has length but no width or height. It extends in one direction, unlike a triangle and a cube, which have more dimensions. The point does not have length.

Explanation:

In mathematics, a line segment is considered to be one-dimensional as it only possesses a property of length but no width or height. This means it only extends in one direction, often represented on a number line. In comparison, other options presented such as a triangle, point or cube have other dimensions involved. Specifically, a triangle falls in two dimensions as it has both length and width; a cube is a three-dimensional object possessing length, width, and height; and a point, though it lacks all three dimensions, is not accurate as it doesn't have length, which is the key criterion in the question.
