<span>Part A. Functions. Parrots: it is a geometric progression: first year, 20 parrots; second year, 20 * 1.15; third year 20 * 1.15^2, fourth year, 20*1.15^3 => P(n) = 20 (1.15) ^ (n -1). Snakes: it is an arithmetic progression: first year, 24 snakes; second year, 24 + 4 snake; third year, 24 * 4(2) => S(n) = 20 + 4(n-1). Part B. Parrots after 10 years = P(10) = 20(1.15)^9 = 70 Parrots. Snakes after 10 years = S(10) = 20 + 4 (10-1) = 56.</span>
