A wildlife biologist finds that in Clinton county in Pennsylvania has 23 deer per sq. mile. the entire state of Penn is about 46.055 sq miles. if population density of deer in the entire state of Penn. is the same as in Clinton County. What is the population of deer in the state? 2,002 deer per square mile? 1059,265 deer per square mile?

(B) 1059.265 deer per square mile

Step-by-step explanation:

Population Density in Clinton County = 23 deer per sq. mile.

Area of state of Pennsylvania = 46.055 sq miles

Since the population density of deer in the entire state of Penn. is the same as in Clinton County.

Population Density of deer in Pennsylvania = 23 deer per sq. mile.

Population Density = Number of Deers/Area of the Region

23 = x/46.055

Cross Multiplying

x=23 X 46.055

=1059.265 deer per square mile

There are 1059.265 deer per square mile in Pennsylvania.
