The question is an illustration of sample and population, and the estimate of the population of squirrel in the park is 55

How to determine the population of squirrel?

The given parameters are:

Marked squirrels = 43

Captured squirrels = 50

Of the 50 captured squirrels, 38 are from the marked squirrels.

This means that the number of unmarked squirrels is:

Unmarked = 50 - 38

Evaluate

Unmarked = 12

The population of the squirrel is then calculated using:

Population = Marked + Unmarked

So, we have:

Population = 43 + 12

Evaluate the sum

Population = 55

Hence, the estimate of the population of squirrel in the park is 55
