Document Summary
Study guide: problem 2(b) capture recapture. You catch 60 fishes and color their tails yellow. 11 of them were yellow tail fishes and. The second time we caught 45 fishes, out of which there were 21 yellow fishes and 24 blue tail fishes. Estimate the number of the fishes using the capture-recapture technique we study in class. 0. 001 y t i l i b a b o r. We started our n (total number of fish in the lake) at 84 because we knew that this was the lowest possible number of fish in the lake (60 yellow tail + 24 blue tail fish). During recapture 1, we caught 24 blue tail fish and re-caught 11 yellow tail fish (total of 35 fish). =hypgeom. dist(cid:894)(cid:1005)(cid:1005),(cid:1007)(cid:1009),(cid:1010)(cid:1004),a(cid:1006) ,false(cid:895), we calculated the probability of total fish in the lake based on. During recapture 2, we caught 24 blue tail fish and re-caught 21 yellow tail fish (total of 45 fish(cid:895).
