To estimate the population of reindeer in an area, researchers put marks on 42 reindeer. Later, on a flight over the area, the researchers noted 14 marked reindeer out of the 300 reindeer they
counted. To the nearest whole number, what is the best estimate for the reindeer population?

options a,b,c are the right answer.

step-by-step explanation:

a linear parent function is always represented as y = x

if we write this function in the form of y=mx+c

⇒

or  

now if we plot a graph we will find these characteristics:

1) y intercept of the graph is zero so its a straight line passing through origin.

2) as we can see in both the forms of function written, values of x and y may be either positive or negative for the positive slope means points on the graph are either in first quadrant or in third one.

3) it's slope is one.

i think the amount would be $140.62

the correct answer is $7.38
