Question

A group of biologists is surveying the mice population in a forest. The equation n = 75(3)t. What does the variable t represent?

a. The number of mice
b. The number of years
c. The number of days
d. The rate of population change

Answer 1

The variable t in the equation n = 75(3)t represents the number of years.

Step-by-step explanation:

The variable t in the equation n = 75(3)t represents the number of years. In this equation, n represents the number of mice and 75(3) represents the initial population of mice.

The variable t is used to calculate the population after a certain number of years.
