Q10
a student studying marine biology created a model for the
population of fish in a nearby lake, where the population
decreased 25% over a year. she used the model
p= 714(0.75), where p is the population y years
after 2020. write a model that would predict the
population after m months.

Respuesta :

A model that would predict the population after m months is 714(0.9792)^m.

What is the model that would predict the population after m months?

The population declines by 25% every month, in order to determine the monthly rate of decline, divide 25% by 12.

Monthly rate of decline = 25% / 12 = 2.08%

The equation that can be used to determine the population after m months is:

P( 1 - r)^m

Where:

  • p = initial population
  • r = monthly rate of decline
  • m = number of months

The model : 714( 1 - 0.0208)^m

714(0.9792)^m
