Answer:
The estimated Rabbit population by the year 2036 is 32,309 rabbits
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are expected to use the exponential decay function to estimate population of rabbits in a certain year.
An exponential decay function refers to an equation that estimates the value of a parameter(dependent parameter) at a certain value of the independent parameter given that the independent parameter decreases at a certain constant rate.
Firstly, what we need to do is to write the decay function. To do this, we shall be representing the population by variable P, the rate by r , the number of years by t and the initial population by I
Mathematically, we have the decay function as;
P = I(1-r)^t
From the question, we identify these values as;
P = 144,000 : r = 7.2% = 7.2/100 = 0.072, I = 144,00 and t = 2036-2016 = 20 years
Let's plug these values;
P = 144,000(1-0.072)^20
P = 144,000(0.928)^20
P= 32,309
