In 2013, the moose population in a park was measured to be 5,100. By 2018, the population was measured again to be 5,200. If the

population continues to change exponentially, find an equation for moose population, P, as a function of t, the years since 2013

Answer:

P(t) = 5100e^{0.0039t}

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential model for the population in t years after 2013 is given by:

P(t) = P(0)e^{rt}

In which P(0) is the population in 2013 and r is the growth rate.

In 2013, the moose population in a park was measured to be 5,100

This means that P(0) = 5100

So

P(t) = 5100e^{rt}

By 2018, the population was measured again to be 5,200.

2018 is 2018-2013 = 5 years after 2013.

So this means that P(5) = 5200.

We use this to find r.

P(t) = 5100e^{rt}

5200 = 5100e^{5r}

e^{5r} = \frac{52}{51}

\ln{e^{5r}} = \ln{\frac{52}{51}}

5r = \ln{\frac{52}{51}}

r = \frac{\ln{\frac{52}{51}}}{5}

r = 0.0039

So the equation for the moose population is:

P(t) = 5100e^{0.0039t}

Alcona has a radius of 5 inches and a height of 5 inches what is the volume up and come to the nearest 10 inch cube :-)
Nookie1986 [14]
Pi * 5 squared = 25 Pi
25 Pi * 5 = 125 Pi or 392.6990817
and I'm not sure how to round to inch cube sorry. :(
