Part of the population of 6,750 elk at a wildlife preserve is infected with a parasite. A random sample of 50 elk shows that 3 of them are infected. How many elk are likely to be infected?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

405

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use a ratio to solve

3 infected           x infected

------------------ = ----------------

50 sampled     6750 population

Using cross products

3*6750 = 50x

Divide each side by 50

3*6750/50 = x

405

Answer 2

Answer:

Around 405 elk should be infected with the parasite.

Step-by-step explanation:

6,750/50=135

135 * 3 = 405

hope this helps :)

Answers

Answer:

Option D is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the function is in vertex form. Thus, we can analyze the equation to determine the x and y values of the vertex. We know that the template format of a vertex form equation is as follows:

f(x) = a(x – h)2 + k . The only constants we need are h and k, where 'h' is the x-value of our vertex and 'k' is the y-value of our vertex.

The value of 'k' can be found quite simply by looking at the equation: -9.

The value of 'h' is a little trickier, as we must take into account the 'subtract' sign of the template equation, meaning that the '+7' in the given equation actually means that we are subtracting negative seven. Thus, the value of 'h' is -7.

Thus, the vertex of this graph is (-7,-9).

This means that option D is correct.

Answer:

The vertex is at ( -7, -9)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = (x+7)^2 -9

This is written in vertex form

y = a( x-h)^2 +k where ( h,k) is the vertex

y = ( x - -7)^2 + -9

The vertex is at ( -7, -9)

Step-by-step explanation:

I  am assuming that the point id (6, -2).

The slope of the required line = -1/6.

y - y1 = m(x - x1) where m = slope and x1,y1 is a point on the line so we have

Tickets to a local movie were sold at $6.00 for adults and $4.50 for students. If 390 tickets were sold for a total of $2190.00, how many student tickets were sold

Answers

Answer: Therefore 100 student tickets were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of student tickets be x

So adult tickets = 390 - x

ATQ

4.5(x) + 6(390-x) = 2190

4.5x + 2340 - 6x = 2190

-1.5x + 2340 = 2190

-1.5x = 2190-2340

-1.5x = -150

x = -150/-1.5

x = 100

Therefore 100 student tickets were sold

Answer:

It is 77.2, so your anwer is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding decimal divided by decimal too hard? Don't worry, I've got your back! To do division, you can do it the hard way by just dividing it, but there's something more simple.

Move the dividend's decimal point to the right until it's not a decimal. Do the same with the divisor, but it depends on how many decimal places on the dividend was moved by. So in this case, you move it by 2 decimal places for BOTH! Then you just simply divide it. It gives you the same answer.

X, 2X + 11 and 4X - 3 are consecutive terms of an arithmetic sequence. Find the constant difference between terms. Give a formula for finding the nth term of the sequence. Use your formula to find the 27th term of this sequence.

Answers

Common difference between the terms is 36

Formula for nth term is [tex]a_n=36n-11[/tex]

27th term is 961

Given :

X, 2X + 11 and 4X - 3 are consecutive terms of an arithmetic sequence

To Find:

We need to find the constant difference between the given terms and also find the nth term . Also find the 27th term .

To find the difference , we need to take the difference of consecutive terms

[tex]2x+11-x=x+11\\\\4x-3=(2x+11)= 4x-3-2x-11=2x-14[/tex]

Both the common differences are equal

[tex]x+11=2x-14\\Solve \; for \; x\\Subtract \; x\\11=x-14\\Add \; 14\\x=25[/tex]

First term is 25

second term is 2(25)+11=61

Difference is 61-25=26

Common difference = 36

Use nth term formula is

[tex]a_n=a+(n-1)d\\a=25 (first term )\\d=36\\a_n=25+(n-1)(36)\\a_n=25+36n-36\\a_n=36n-11[/tex]

To find 27th term , replace n with 27

[tex]a_{27}=36(27)-11=961[/tex]

This problem seems like a lot when you read through it, but when you start to analyze the problem, the whole first line is extra information that we don't actually need. The part we really need to pay attention to is:

"p = qr - f, write the equation with q solved in terms of p, r, and f."

So, all we are doing here is some manipulating of the equation to get what we want. So, if p = qr - f, we can isolate the variable (q), to get p + f = qr. Now all we have to do is divide both sides by r to isolate the variable (q) even further, and we get [tex]$\frac{p+f}{r}=q$[/tex] or [tex]$r=\frac{p+f}{r}$[tex]
