A marine biologist randomly selected and placed radio tracking devices on 50 dolphins swimming in the Gulf of Mexico in 2020. He released the dolphins back into the population. A year later he caught 200 dolphins and found that 20 of them had tracking devices on them. What is the best estimate of the population of dolphins swimming in the Gulf of Mexico?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
"The capture-recapture of individually distinctive signature whistles has not been attempted before," says the paper's senior author Dr Tess Gridley, Co-Director of Sea Search and the Namibian Dolphin Project and a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Botany and Zoology at SU. "The dolphins use these sounds throughout life and each has its own unique whistle. Therefore, by recording signature whistles over time and in different places we can calculate where animals are moving to and how many animals there are in a population."
Working with Dr Simon Elwen of Stellenbosch University, the Namibian Dolphin Project has been researching Namibia's resident bottlenose dolphins for the past 12 years, and built up a catalogue of more than 55 signature whistles dating back to 2009.
This particular study was led by Emma Longden, who began the project during her BSc (Hons) Marine Biology degree at the University of Plymouth. As an undergraduate, Emma completed an internship with the Namibia Dolphin Project for a month in 2016, and returned again in 2018 to complete work on the mark-recapture project.
She analysed more than 4000 hours of acoustic data from four hydrophones positioned along the coast south and north of Walvis Bay, Namibia, during the first six months of 2016.
All in all, they identified 204 acoustic encounters, 50 of which contained signature whistle types. From these encounters, 53 signature whistle types were identified; 40 were in an existing catalogue developed in 2014 for the Walvis Bay bottlenose dolphin population, and 13 were newly identified. Of the 53 signature whistle types identified, 43% were captured only once, whereas the majority (57%) were recaptured twice or more.
"One of the great things about bioacoustics is that you can leave a hydrophone in the water for weeks at a time and collect so much data without interfering with the lives of the animals you are studying," says Emma, whose work on the project was also supervised by Dr Clare Embling, Associate Professor of Marine Ecology at the University of Plymouth.
Dr Embling added: "This work is incredibly important as it allows us to track and count the number of dolphins in small vulnerable populations. It builds on our previous research looking at the impacts of noise on marine organisms and monitoring vulnerable marine mammal populations. It also showcases the fantastic level of research that our marine biology students are able to achieve, and the opportunities available to them through our partnerships with conservation organisations such as the Namibia Dolphin Project and the Ocean Giants Trust."
Future research includes the work undertaken by PhD student Sasha Dines from Stellenbosch University to further refine the technique to better understand the population of endangered humpback dolphins in South Africa. Another PhD student, Jack Fearey from the University of Cape Town, is continuing to conduct research along the Namibian Coast.
The measures of the angles of a triangle are shown in the figure below. Solve for x.
Answer:
x = 57
Step-by-step explanation:
Angles of a triangle all add up to 180 so:
x + 78 + 45 = 180
x + 123 = 180
x = 180 - 123
x = 57

"la temperatura mas baja conocida en la tierra es de 273° bajo cero mientras que la temperatura promedio de la superficie de la tierra es de 37 calcula la variacion de la temperatura"
Answer:
Variación de temperatura: 310°C
Step-by-step explanation:
La variación de temperatura entre la temperatura más baja conocida en la tierra (-273°C = 273° bajo cero) y la temperatura promedio de la tierra (37°C) será el valor absoluto de la diferencia de estos dos valores, es decir:
Variación de temperatura: |-273°C - 37°C|
Variación de temperatura: |-310°C|
Como el valor absoluto de un número negativo es su valor positivo (|-x| = x)
Variación de temperatura: 310°CYou drive 150 miles in 3 hours. At this rate how far would you travel in 7 hours
Answer:
350 miles in 7 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
If you drive 150 miles in 3 hours, you need to find the "base" meaning how many miles you can go to by 1 hour. To do that you divide 150 with 3 Which equals to 50. So in 1 hour you can travel up to 50 miles. But we need to find how many miles you can go by 7 hours. For that you multiply 50 with 7.
Therefore the answer is 350 miles.

the perimeter of a rectangle is 32cm, its length is more than its width by 2 what's the area
Answer:
63 cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
p = l + w + l + w
32 = 2l + 2w
32 = 2(w + 2) + 2w
32 = 2w + 4 + 2w
32 = 4w + 4
28 = 4w
7 = w
l = w + 2
l = 7 + 2
l = 9
Check your work:
32 = 9 + 7 + 9 + 7
32 = 32
Correct
A = l × w
A = 9 × 7
A = 63

Find the area of the shape shown below
Answer:
12 units squared
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to find the area of each individual shape, and then add them together. The area of the square is 4 units squared. The triangle on the left is two units squared (base times height, divided by two,) and the area of the triangle on the left is 6. Add them all together, and you get 12 units squared.
Answer:
24
area is round the outside times them together and you will get the inside
Lisa rolls a number cube that has sides labeled 1 to 6 and then flips a coin. What is the probability that she rolls an odd number and flips tails?
A.1/8
B.1/4
C.1/2
D.3/4
Answer: B. 1/4
Step-by-step explanation: The probability of rolling an odd number is 3/6 since there are 3 odd numbers between 1 and 6 (1, 3, 5). The probability of flipping a coin and getting tails is 1/2 since you can either get heads or tails. With this knowledge, you must multiply these two probabilities to get the probability of getting an odd number AND tails; so, 3/6 x 1/2 = 3/12 = 1/4.

Answer:
i) p = 4
ii) p = 8
iii) p = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, we have the general relation as follows;
c = 2.79p
i) 2.79p = 11.16
p = 11.16/2.79
p = 4
ii) 2.79p = 22.32
p = 22.32/2.79
p = 8
iii) 2.79p = 33.48
p = 33.48/2.79
p = 12
A number x, rounded to 2 decimal places is 7.42 write down the error interval for x
Answer:
7.415 ≤ x < 7.425
Step-by-step explanation:
The number x was rounded to 2 decimal places to give 7.42.
Since rounded off to 2 decimal places, the error interval for x is half of 0.01 subtracted from and added to 7.42.
Thus;
7.42 ± (0.01/2)
(7.42 - 0.005),(7.42 + 0.005)
7.415, 7.425
Now, 7.425 will not be included in the internal because approximating it doesn't give 7.42.
Thus,the error interval is;
7.415 ≤ x < 7.425

What are surds and indices?We know there are two types of radicals one is surds when the number has been raised by such power that it is greater than zero and less than one,
The other type of radicals are indices where a number is raised to such power that is greater than one.
We know, √400 is 20.
Given, We have to find an irrational number between 19 and 20.
Now, From the given options the closest number to √400 is √402 but it is not between 19 and 20.

A 1200 kg car and a 2400 kg car are lifted to the same height at a constant speed in a auto service station. Lifting the more massive car requires ____ work.
to be honest with you, I dont know
The work required to lift the massive car of 2400 kg is more than lifting the car with 120 kg
What is Work?Work is defined as the energy that is applied to or removed from an object by applying force along a displacement. For a constant force acting in the same direction as the motion, the work is defined as the product of the force's magnitude and the distance traveled. The dimensions of work is
ML²T⁻² and the SI unit of work is Joule
Work = Force x Distance
The SI unit for work is the joule (J), or newton meter ( Nm ). One joule equals the amount of work that is done when 1 N of force moves an object over a distance of 1 m
Given data ,
Let the work required to move the 2400kg car be W₁
Let the work required to move the 1200kg car be W₂
Now , the force in moving the 2400 kg car = F₁
The value of F₁ = 2400 ( a )
And , the force in moving the 1200 kg car = F₂
The value of F₂ = 1200 ( a )
where a is the acceleration
Let the distance moved be height H
Now , the work W₁ = Force x Distance
Substituting the values in the equation , we get
W₁ = 2400 ( a ) H
And , W₂ = 1200 ( a ) H
Now , W₁ > W₂
Hence , the work required to move 2400 kg car is greater
