1) The number of mice (in millions) is modeled by the function below, where t is measured in years. How many mice are in the culture after 10 year? (round to the nearest whole tenth) n(t) = 12e = 12e^0.012

The number of mice (in millions) is modeled by the function


n(t)=12e^(0.012t)

Since t is measured in years, to find how many mice are in the culture after 10 years we just need to substitute t for 10 in te previous function, obtaining:


n(10)=12e^(0.012(10))=12e^(0.12)=13.52996222\approx14

Then aproximating the answer will be 14 that means that there will be 14 millions of mices after 10 years.
