Answer:
- pink salmon = 26
- yellowfin tuna = 9
- bluegill = 9
===================================================
Step-by-step explanation:
If 60% of the sample are pink salmon, then an estimate of the number of salmon in the population (aka the entire pond) is:
60% of 44 = 0.60*44 = 26.4 which rounds to 26 pink salmon
--------------
If 20% are yellowfin tuna, then we estimate there are 0.20*44 = 8.8 = 9 yellowfin tuna in the pond.
--------------
If 20% are bluegill, then we predict there are 0.20*44 = 8.8 = 9 bluegill
--------------
As a check:
salmon + tuna + bluegill = 26+9+9 = 44 fish total
