Question

1). A population of 20 rabbits is released into a wildlife region. The population is growing at a rate of 60% per year.

A) the General Equation from the Video was: P(x) = (blank)


What is the population of rabbits after 5 years?

B) the Evaluated equation I used to get the following answer is (blank)
and After five years there will be(blank)
rabbits.

And What is the population of rabbits after 8 years?

c) the Evaluated equation I used to get the following answer is(blank)
and After eight years there will be(blank)
rabbits.

Answer 1

(a) A = 20(1.6)^t

(b) 210 rabbits

Explanation:

Initial number of rabbits = 20

rate of growth, R = 60 % annually

(A) The general equation is

`A = P \left ( 1+(R)/(100) \right )^t\\\\A = 20\left ( 1+(60)/(100) \right )^t\\\\A = 20 (1.6)^t`

(B) Let the time, t = 5 years

So, the population after 5 years is

`A = 20 (1.6)^5\\\\A = 209.7 = 210 rabbits`
