Answer:
Option B is the correct answer.
Pond B has the greatest population density of resident geese
Step-by-step explanation:
Pond A:
Population of geese = 88
Area(in acres) = 1.1
Then the Population density of resident geese per acre in Pond A is calculated as:
[tex]Population\ Density=\dfrac{88}{1.1}=80[/tex]
Similarly:
For Pond B:
Population of geese = 175
Area(in acres) = 1.3
The population density of resident geese per acre is:
[tex]Population\ Density=\dfrac{175}{1.3}=134[/tex]
Pond C:
Population of geese = 192
Area(in acres) = 1.5
[tex]Population\ Density=\dfrac{192}{1.5}=128[/tex]
Pond D:
Population of geese = 204
Area(in acres) = 2.0
[tex]Population\ Density=\dfrac{204}{2}=102[/tex]
Hence, the greatest population density of resident geese is in:
Pond B i.e. 134 Population per acres
