A population of 65 foxes in a wildlife preserve triples in size every 13 years. The function y=65 x 3x, where x is the number of 13-year periods, models the population growth.How many foxes will there be after 39 ​years?

Answer:

585 I hope this helps!

Explanation:

You will first divide 39 ÷ 13 and get 3.

Then you will take 3 and multiply it by 3 to get 9

After you will multiply 65 by 9 and get 585.

And thats your answer
