Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

7/20=x/400

Multiply 20 on the numerator and denominator to get 140/400

Answer:

the expected number in the bass population is 140

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve the proportion [tex]\frac{7}{20} = \frac{x}{400}[/tex], we would cross multiply

so we would multiply 7 × 400 which is equal to 2800

then we would multiply 20 × x which gives us 20x

20x = 2800 < divide both sides by 20 to isolate x

20x/20 = x

2800/20 = 140

x = 140

the expected number in the bass population is 140
