Question

Enzo is studying the black bear population at a large national park.

Answer 1

Answer:

2,973

Step-by-step explanation:

The black bear population B(t), in the park is modeled by the following function:

$B(t) = 2500 \cdot 2^{0.01t}$

Where t is the time(in years) elapsed since the beginning of the study.

We want to determine the black bear population in 25 years time, t=25.

$B(25) = 2500 \cdot 2^{0.01*25}\\=2973.02\\\approx 2973$

There will be 2,973 black bears in 25 years time.
