Using an exponential function, it is found that it will take 24 years for the current population of 4800 deer to reduce to 600.
<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>
An exponential function is modeled by:
In which:
- b is the rate of change, as a decimal.
In this problem, considering the initial value of 4800, and that the population halves every 8 years, the equation is given by:
The population will be of 600 when A(t) = 600, hence:
Hence:
t/8 = 3.
t = 24.
It will take 24 years for the current population of 4800 deer to reduce to 600.

Answer:
88/4 and 48/4
Step-by-step explanation:
88 + 48 = 136
136/4 = 34
Explicit Formula
Just in case you don't know what this is, the explicit formula is the formula that solves for any term in the series without necessarily knowing what came before the term you are solving.
<em><u>Givens</u></em>
d = t_(n + 1) - t_n You can take any term and the next term for this part of the formula
d = t_3 - t_2
t_3 = 1
t_2 = -7
d = 1 - - 7 = 8
a = -15
<em><u>Formula</u></em>
t_n = a + (n - 1)*d
t_n = -15 + (n - 1)*8
For example find the 5th term.
t_5 = - 15 + (5 - 1)*8
t_5 = - 15 + 4 *8
t_5 = -15 + 32
t_5 = 17 Which is what you have.
Recursive Formula
Computers really like this formula. They use it in what is called a subroutine and they pass values from one part of the program to a subroutine which evaluates the given and sends the result back. I'm telling you all this so you see why you are doing it. The disadvantage of it for humans is that you must know the preceding term to use the recursive formula.
<em><u>Formula</u></em>
t_n = t_(n - 1) + d
<em><u>Example</u></em>
t_6 = t_(6 - 1) + d
t_6 = t_5 + 8
t_6 = 17 + 8
t_6 = 25
You can check this by using the explicit formula.
(16 - 4) ÷ 2
This would give you $6, so that is how much they expect you to spend per meal.
