Park service personnel are trying to increase the size of the bison population of a large park. If 380 bison currently live in the park, and if the population's rate of growth is 1% annually, find how many bison (rounded to the nearest whole) there should be in 20 years. Use y = 380(2.7)^0.01t, where the t represents time in years.

Answer:

464

Explanation:

380=bison

t=time=20

y = 380(2.7)^0.01t

20*0.01= 0.2

2.7^.2=1.2197554094669

380*(1.2197554094669)= 463.50

463.50 rounded to nearest whole is 464
