Question

Use a graphing calculator to estimate when the population will exceed 4841.

Answer 1

Given the population function as :

`p(t)\text{ = 1850}e^(0.13t)`

Solution

When we plot the function on a graphing calculator, we have:

The point marked blue represents the point (7.4, 4841).

Hence, the population will exceed 4841 when t = 7.5

Answer: 7.5
