  1. if 300 blue jays are found in a 20 hectare plot, what is the density in blue jays/hectare in that plot? round to the nearest whole number.
  2. if 3400 maple trees are counted on a 3km x 4km rectangular patch of land, what is the density of maple trees per square kilometer? round to the nearest tenth.
  3. suppose the population density of a sample of deer is 50 per square kilometer. assuming that the population is uniformly distributed what would the population size be if the deer encompassed an area that was 20km x 20km? round to the nearest whole number.
  4. there are 252 deer in a population. there is no net immigration or emigration. if 47 deer die and 32 deer are born in one month, what is the population size at the end of the month? round to the nearest whole number.
  5. in a population of 600 squirrels, the per capita birth rate in a particular period is 0.06 and the per capita death rate is 0.12.

a. what is the per capita growth rate of the population? round to the nearest hundredth.
b. what is the actual number of squirrels that die during this particular period? round to the nearest whole number.
c. what is the actual number of squirrels that are born during this period? round to the nearest whole number.

Explanation:

Response
Question 1

Step1: Recall density formula

Density $= \frac{\text{Number of individuals}}{\text{Area}}$. Here, number of blue jays is 300, area is 20 hectares.
$\text{Density} = \frac{300}{20}$

Step2: Calculate the value

$\frac{300}{20} = 15$

Step1: Find the area of the land

The land is a rectangle with length 3 km and width 4 km. Area of rectangle $= \text{length} \times \text{width} = 3 \times 4 = 12$ square kilometers.

Step2: Use density formula

Density $= \frac{\text{Number of trees}}{\text{Area}} = \frac{3400}{12}$

Step3: Calculate and round

$\frac{3400}{12} \approx 283.3$ (rounded to the nearest tenth)

Step1: Find the area of the region

The area is a square with side 20 km. Area $= 20 \times 20 = 400$ square kilometers.

Step2: Use population formula (Population = Density × Area)

Population $= 50 \times 400$

Step3: Calculate the value

$50 \times 400 = 20000$

Answer:

15
