The size of a wolf population in a national park increases according to the formula y=y₀ e^{0.027 t}, where t is time in years and y₀ is the initial population at time 0 . If the size of the current population is 58 wolves, find how many wolves there will be in 5 years.

In 5 years, there will be ? wolves.
(Round to the nearest whole number as needed.)

Answer:

66

Explanation:

y = 58 e^(0.027 * 5)

y = 58 e^(0.135)

y = 58 * 1.144537

y = 66.383133

y = 66
